I wonder why muslims in India never grow up (now dont tell me who is a true muslim and who is not - I am simply not interested). No Hindu mutts issued a sentence when Bamiyan Buddhas were pulled down though it did hurt hindu sentiments as badly (Buddha is an avatar of Vishnu)
If muslims are really interested to put an end to this, they should articulate their pain in no uncertain terms and leave it at that. They are all in a race - Indian muslims want to prove that they are more islamic than their counterparts from other nations.
After all, muslims can hurt anyone (leave alone Bamiyan Buddha, but what about our own Desi M.F. Hussain?), but raise piteous cries when their own beliefs are hurt, and by this fatwa, they are merely ensuring that they are going to be hurt even more. And perhaps that is what they want, so that they can have excuse to create more violence, bring down more twin towers or frighten more Rushdie's.
Putting 51 crore on that man's head (BTW, whose money is it - I hope it is not mine, the taxpayer's) and now issuing a fatwa for his death may be islamic, but it is certainly not civilized.
