They haven't done enough to ruin their own religion, now they feel they have to ruin mine, too

So the other day on FOX news (yes, that FOX news) the guest on Neil Cavuto's show was Hussein Ibish of the Arab-American Anti-Discrimination Committe. When Ibish mentioned that the Pope impressed the Muslim world by being so strongly against the Iraq war, the discussion went as follows:

Ibish: "I think he impressed a lot of people in the Arab and Islamic world by taking a strong stance against the war in Iraq and by taking, by rejecting, you know, very categorically the idea of preemptive warfare, and what have you. So, he was respected both as a religious figure but also as a political figure who was able to be a friend of Israel and a friend of the Palestinians at the same time. Something we might want to..."

Cavuto, interrupting: "Well, to be fair, his views were not that black and white on the war in Iraq, but, Hussein thank you very much."

Ibish: "No. I think you're wrong about that."

Cavuto: "Well, we can argue but I don't want to argue with you today because I like you."

Well, actually Mr. Cavuto, you can't argue about it. For you see, my conservative friend, the Pope called the war on Iraq both a "defeat for humanity" and "immoral, illegal, and unjust" both of which I think make his stance fairly clear. But as always, I report and you decide.
