on: The Media and "The Innocence of Muslims": Against the Islamisation of Muslims, by Hoda Salah
I don't understand. Hoda Salah says she doesn't want to be called Muslim and be referred to as Muslim all the time, then she says, "I'm a Muslim woman", and "I'm an enlightened Muslim". I thought she was trying to get away from that 'tag', then she confirms it. She has to make up her mind.

This is the typical "Don't stigmatize us/me" tune - I have heard that song before. Of course western media write up Muslim fury - because it is Muslim fury. And of course not all Muslims are crazy because of that but those who ran amuck did run amuck. It's pathetic to decry the lack of differentiation of western media - because, after all: people were killed by religious madmen. Why doesn't the author criticize religious fanaticism?

Instead of blaming western media, Mrs. Saleh should talk about Muslim furor and violence. I'm surprised a balanced media outlet like quantara published a low-qualitiy piece such as this one.
