A leading opera house called off a production of Mozart's "Idomeneo" that features the severed head of the Prophet Mohammed, setting off a furious debate Tuesday over Islam, freedom of speech and the role of art.

I think the Germans deliberately did this to start another kick off with the muslim hot heads.

i agree..

as a matter of fact, lock this topic, im fed up of the old freedom of speech, freedom of inciting hatred debate. the play's been cancelled,.. i'm sure if it went ahead there woulda been a fatwa to chop off the heads of all involved.

[quote="The Great 100"]Geezer, thanks for clarifying. You meant like George Galloway. :)[/quote]

I don't think it's because we can't see your face 100 that you're mistrusted 100. It's because of statements like these. What you're saying is that George Galloway is a closet muslim and that is why he takes the stands he does. To me it doesn't even appear that you want to be perceived as balanced.

With respect, TEX, all Olmert did this summer that might have fuelled the flames was to target the sources of incoming fire.

I still dont know why the original title of this thread was altered.

The current title is not mine. Somebody else put it there.

I cant believe I was censored for simply quoting the Pope.

What is this world coming to !!

doesn't matter who quoted it..

if the pope quoted "omrows mother gets ******".. would u post it as the title of this thread?

it aint even about censorship,.. use some common sense..
