I haven't seen the film and see no point in viewing it. I've formed my opinion of that religion back when I was a child who'd barely escaped a Chechen subway bomb and it's unlikely to change. Islam is the only one of the Abrahamic trifecta without an unqualified prohibition on murder. That said, the Muslims I know are thoroughly secular and as terrified of the nutcases and of the imposition of Sharia as I am.

A campaign of alienation such as this does nothing but play directly into the radicals hands by drawing a wedge between neighbors. All they have to do afterwards is swoop in and welcome the victims of this idiocy into the fold, and voila, we have homegrown jihad.

Exactly. It's as if the people behind the video *want* a home-grown jihad so they'll be able to say "Aha! We told you so!"

I'm afraid that your very noble and sincere hope is probably wrong. Grrr.
