The "Pathologization of Dissent"...
OP - April 11, 2011, 07:12 AM

"Dismissing their critics as deranged nicely suits the members of deeply complacent elites—be they Soviet psychiatrists, liberal reporters, or Arab-American pundits serving on the Council for Foreign Relations. It removes the necessity for addressing any contrary arguments; after all, who on earth would bother to reason with madmen? They need to be dismissed, confined, and (in serious cases) treated—lest they pose a threat to themselves or others." FULL ARTICLE

So DH tell me something here.,

do you think people like James Zogby mad at US of A politics in middle east because of their "Stockholm syndrome"., Or he is mad because Juice have their own country in the middle east But Christians Don't ?

Do not let silence become your legacy.. Question everything
I renounced my faith to become a kafir,
the beloved betrayed me and turned in to a Muslim

I don't really understand your question Yeez. Pastor Terry Jones may be validly deemed "mad" for a variety of reasons. However, burning the Qur'an - a valid tactic to highlight Muslim hypocrisy - hardly exemplifies his "madness", as Zogby would have it.
