Nonsense.  The Western world tries hard to accomodate others.

The "source of the problem" is when the believers in one "language"
have the idea that, if you don't fully believe in the *exact* dialect
of *their* language, you deserve to die, *and* they are willing to
see if they can't implement that idea.

We "westerns"--who largely do believe in multi-culteralism--feel that's
going just a bit over the line.
