Oberon - there is a distinct difference between anti-Muslim sentiments and anti-extremist sentiments. As a Christian, I understand that not all Muslims are extremists. While their religion says they should be, not all are. Many are in fact, moderate. Just like I am a "moderate" Christian, since I don't believe we should go around stoning or otherwise executing gay people. There are extremists in every religion - but Islam has more than "its fair share". Just as I would speak out against a Christian extremist (like the morons who kill doctors because they do abortions) - I will speak out against Muslim extremists who would kill you and I because we were not followers of their religion.
Call that a lack of class if you like. People like that give up their status as humans when they feel a requirement to murder innocents - in my book at least. I'd say choosing to commit murder and terrorism in the name of getting laid by a bunch of virgins in the afterlife is a little "less classy".
