#1 Well, "no big deal", if I may (horribly) say so.

Right after 9/11, the Nigeria deathtoll of inter-religious-non-specified-violences(tm) was about 10 000, with hamlets attacked by crowds brandishing portraits of UBL, like in Indonesia right after the NYC attacks... most of them deaders were christian minorities living in muslim north, of course...

Since 2001, there was the Miss world riots, more ethnic cleasing, more sharia, more arabization, more burnt churches... one of the unreported bloody frontiers of the ROP... ah, if only they could be paleostinians, then perhaps this would make international news.

Anyway, the *usual* numbers of christians killed for their faith around the world is about 8000-10 000 a month.
No need to say which other revealed religion is the most responsible for theses persecutions, I guess.

#2 Let's be clear about this. The Muslims started to burn some 30 churches after a local paper published pictures of the pedophile for prophet. These current riots are simply the Christians fighting back. Good for them.
