To put this in some perspective, consider Abbas (Chairman of PA), who is referred to as a moderate... his thesis at Moscow University was a denial of the Holocaust. In light of this, check out these comments contained in this commentators blog about how the speech was received by some more "radical" representatives.

That's very untrue. Also I am all for respecting Muslims, Hindus, and Jews but the persecution of Christians in these highly renown muslim and hindu nations have been persecuting Christians like crazy, including the killing of a 5 year old christian in pakistan just last week after torturing them first. Shouldn't they try to respect us in return? I don't understand how that is acceptable at all. If you want respect, you give it to others too.
