J.K. Rowling mocks Murdoch for his ‘all Muslims’ tweet
British author JK Rowling, of Harry Potter fame, condemns media mogul Rupert Murdoch for a tweet saying “all Muslims” must be held responsible for a recent wave of terror attacks in France even though “most Muslims” are peaceful. Murdoch says Muslims must recognize and destroy the “Jihadist cancer” in their midst.
Rowling responds dryly: “I was born Christian. If that makes Rupert Murdoch my responsibility, I’ll auto-excommunicate.”

Maybe most Moslems peaceful, but until they recognize and destroy their growing jihadist cancer they must be held responsible.
