Just one little sentence
I think it's clear what they really think, isn't it?
Just one little sentence, that's all. Calling all muslims terrorists.
The sentence that Graham was fired for was clearly wrong and can't be justified. But if you read his entire discussion of the issue, he talked about the fact that the vast majority of Muslims are anti-terrorist, and the world's Muslims need to reclaim their religion from the nuts. Taken as a whole, what he said was sensible and mainstream; unfortunately, he included one inflammatory sentence along the way. Unfortunate, yes. But it shouldn't be a career-destroying error.
