Hi
Yes the agenda of the article is pretty obvious to label Islam as intolerant religion towards other religions, so if i have to say again yes its anti islamic article & thread, jews kill people in Palestine no one writes Jewish bigotry & cruelty, Americans have killed thousands of people in Iraq but no one sees them as crimes against humanity why ?
Please do read the article again. IMHO, the writer seems to be speaking about people only (hence his use of 'we' 'us' etc.). Can we thus consider this to be synonymous with a religious belief. NO!
Therefore, Islam cannot be considered "intolerant" towards other religions. i personally hold no brief for any religious beliefs; and yet it would near-impossible for anyone to convince me to find any such "intolerance". PEOPLE can be and in fact are, intolerant.
(and they can be from any grouping- national, communal, gender or religion)
About the other point that you write about viz. Jews, Americans etc. i agree with you; but like to be clear again that it is PEOPLE of those groups that are culpable. And those actions can still be classified as crimes against humanity.
There we go again, its PEOPLE committing crimes against PEOPLE.
Good Luck
