Sweden raised its terrorism alert level on Thursday one notch to the second-highest, following a recent string of public desecrations of the Qur'an in the Scandinavian country by a handful of anti-Islam activists, sparking angry demonstrations across Muslim countries.
Imagine living in a world where you fear for your citizens because someone could kill them as a revenge for some burnt books.

Some Americans feel the same way about those who burn a flag.
I have just noticed Americans calling for the killing of Democrats because they dare waving a LGBTQ flag. They are literally the same kind of people they hate, extremist Muslims
@tired_n_bored
Yup.
Extreme fundamentalism from any angle is the same damned thing.
The same can apply to them then.
I abhor any form of physical violence which I always find unjustifiable.
@not_me_now
Emotional and psychological violence is just as bad and can do just as much harm.
You don’t even have to imagine. That’s the sad part.
Unless a huge majority of muslim religious leaders are decrying seeking vengeance for things like this, and unless they’re all telling their congregations to be peaceful, then it’s a shit religion that I would be ashamed to be a part of.
