The Missing Story of Muslim Tolerance

The man who once lamented "every day on television we are barraged by stories of a 'Muslim extremist, militant, terrorist, or insurgent,' is now charged with beheading his wife in an "honor" killing.  In 2004, Muzzammil Hassan, founder of the Muslim TV station "Bridges TV" declared "the stories that are missing are the countless stories of Muslim tolerance, progress, diversity, service and excellence that Bridges TV hopes to tell."  Well, now his wife can't tell her story of physical abuse, domestic violence, divorce, and restraining orders.  Mr. Hassan killed Mrs. Hassan and then chopped off her head before turning himself into Orchard Park, NY, police.  Click here: FOXNews.com - Muslim Television Channel Founder Charged With Beheading His Wife - Local News | News Articles | Nat

And the C of E vote was carried 280-something to 8.

It's like a House resolution: it's about politics, not policy. The point is that it will smoke out liberals who voted against it, and was an opportunity to open up a more profitable front-line against them than the whole gays and women bishops thing which makes the conservatives look all mean and nasty.
