As you were quoting me I take it that you are replying to me - I certainly fail to see where I did what you appear to be accusing me of, especially when it comes to displaying religious intolerance.
Sending people pamphlets, by mail or otherwise, is not a private expression of religion, it is rather public. Which makes it fair game for comment. To put a religious spin on this war is counterproductive and does nothing to calm already frayed Arab nerves.
