IN YOUR issue of September 14, Dr Taj Hargey is quoted as complaining that the heads of other religions have held a “deafening silence” about the American pastor who wanted to burn the Koran.

Dr Hargey’s Muslim brethren in Saudi Arabia have been burning Bibles, not once a year as the pastor wished, but all the time.

About this fact, Dr Hargey has maintained a “deafening silence”.

Is this not a case of the biter bit?
