What is perpetrated via Wahibism (fundamentalist Islamic element) is the dynamic of theocracy. However both political systems call into question the infringements of civil and / or human rights abuses in their rigidity. While it is easy to attack someone for a mistaken notion of political dynamic it is not easy to excuse the abuses of women and minorities in the enforcement of a religious authoritarian state. Yes, Horowitz was wrong in his descriptor. His use of a popular expression was poorly researched, etc. However, does that excuse the excesses perpetrated in the guise of religious zealotry?

Name-calling, bullying and grouping Muslims and Americans, who just want to be left alone and live within the laws of America–namely the freedom of religion and anti violence acts, as bad is false.

The previous are good ideologies to propagate in America and worldwide.

Horwowitz’s claims that all people who are practicing Muslims, Italian and educators, like Michael Moore, are part of a fascist regime affiliated to Osama bin Laden is breached and it violates our right(s) included in the U.S. Constitution of America.

Hey Horowitz! Get off the band wagon and stop making a fortune on all aspects of current history and start giving some of this money, that is questionably reputed, to the poor and down trodden of other religions and cultures -and stop feeling sorry for your own rotten, and politically incorrect, past.
