There's this politician (Wilders) here in the Netherlands and he's making an anti/critical Quran movie. No one has seen this movie, no one has any idea of the content of this movie. No one even knows for sure it exists. Still, there's an uproar in the Muslim world, protest, Dutch flag burnings. I have to admit, it's kind of weird seeing your flag being burned by people who apparently are against you for some reason. Ofcourse Americans are used to this phenomenon but it's very new for me. Anyway I think the reactions from the Muslim world are bizarre (just like the Muhammed cartoon riots).
The Netherlands have soldiers in Afghanistan fighting the Taliban and when one dutchman is critical towards Islam the Afghan population suddenly is against everything that's Dutch. I really begin to understand how Americans must feel.

Now, there are also a lot of dutch people who made critical movies, funny movies, etc, about the Bible/Christianity. Here's an example of a movie:

Now, the funny thing is, I don't see any flag burnings or an uproar anywhere, not even a flag burning in Vatican city. Strange...

This is all known ofcourse but I just thought I should mention it here, this stuff is all new to me.

Also, a nice picture that shows the difference between Hamas and the Israeli defense force:
