    platt:
    Please read my statement again. As far as I know, the U.S. and its
    allies haven't threatened to kill all Muslims.

    O, I'm sorry. You're talking about threats, not actions. Ok, let's
    forget for a moment that any rational person might be justified in
    interpreting murderous actions as threats....

    According to your interpretaion of the MOQ, if your next door
    neighbor throws open his window and shouts at you to turn down your
    Rachmaninoff, and if you don't he's gonna kill you and your dog, the
    moral thing for you to do would be to pre-emptively blow up his house
    and family?

    Your non-threatening friend,
