In this LA Times article, the US is condemned for not firing General Boykin after he unfavorably compared Islam to Christianity, and offended Muslim sensibilities. I'm not sure what the problem is. It's simple to compare Islam unfavorably to Christianity. Islam's ideals include killing or enslaving the infidel whenever possible. Christianity's ideals include forgiveness and tolerance. Add to that the fact that many Islamic religious and political leaders make the opposite comparison all the time and no one seems to care.

Why are we so tolerant of people who state again and again in public speeches that they want to kill us or rule over us?
