Moderate Palestinian PM vows boycott of Israeli goods
But deep down, they really, really want peace! Moderation = boycotting goods rather than suicide bombing.

Shoe-throwing = ritual protest. Pig head-throwing = racist incident.
Throwing a pig’s head into a mosque, or into anything, is obnoxious, reprehensible, and always and everywhere to be condemned. That being so, why the double standard?

What? Not the Jews? Pakistani Islamic supremacist blames America for suicide attack by jihadists

Pakistan: Muslims threaten family of Christian man who wed Muslim woman
