Muslim anger over papal comments grows

[Xan]

The Pope basically said "violence in the name of religion is wrong" more or less. Sure, Catholic crusades were done in the name of Christ, but that was hundreds of years ago and I don't see any crusades going on today other than an Jihads. The media and al-jazeera carefully chose what parts of the popes message to air on TV so as to piss off as many muslims as possible. When you read what the media aired it looks like he's trying to start shit. When you look at what he "actually" read though, it's very different.
