Michelle Malkin has done an enormous public service through exposng the NBC Dateline unsuccessful attempt to gin—up and film harrassment of "Muslim—looking" men at NASCAR races. It is a rare double—stereotyping exercise, revealing the contmept of newsroom elites for middle America and their racialist view of a multi—racial religion. Michelle's Fox News segment with Tony Snow is well worth watching via the link in her item, if you haven't seen it.

A perfect illustration of the real religious prejudice in the world today is brought to us by Dhimmi Watch.

What you will not see in the wake of this: demonstrations, violence, or the killing of anyone, by Christian groups. "Christians protest attack on churches," from the Daily Times, with thanks to Twostellas:

MULTAN: Christians on Sunday protested against the desecration of the Holy Bible and arson attacks on their places of worship in various parts of the country, terming the incidents 'religious terrorism'.

Special services were held for those who had died in various incidents of violence against minorities.

'It is religious terrorism to set our church (in Mian Channu) ablaze during the period when we (Christians) fast. It is an attack on our religion and belief. We feel unsafe and insecure,' said Chaudhry Naveed Amer Jeeva, MPA and the coordinator of All Pakistan Minorities Alliance, South Punjab.

He said that the present regime had failed to protect churches, missionary properties and religious leaders. He said that churches had been burnt down in Sargodha and Sukkur, more than 300 copies of holy Bible were set ablaze in Sangla Hill and the cross desecrated and Christians killed in terrorist activities.

Sometimes I wonder how the people at NBC manage to look at themselves in the mirror when they wake up in the morning. They are contemptible.
