They think we should have killed Jones in response. Apart from complete ignorance about the incident or his lack of importance in the US, (or how our Constitution works,) the people in the Middle East don't care about facts. Last year some 18 yr old kid from Iraq or Afghanistan (I can't remember which) was on the news saying we should all die because we all supported Jones. He said he hadn't read the news or heard it on the radio. Friends had told him they'd heard that all Americas were supporting Jones, and he just believed that. So he was out protesting and helping in the riots. So, you know, violence based on gossip.
