Pakistan summons Dutch Ambassador to lodge protest over Fitna

The offense deepens. "Pakistan protests over Islam film," from the BBC:

Pakistan has summoned the Dutch ambassador in Islamabad to lodge a protest over a controversial film on Islam, Fitna, published online.

The 15-minute film by Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders sets verses from the Koran against a background of violent images from terror attacks.

Pakistan's Foreign Ministry said the film was defamatory and "deeply offended" Muslim sentiments.

Did Pakistan's Foreign Ministry ever say that about 9/11? 7/7? The Madrid train bombings? Any act of Islamic terror?
