"[American Islamic Forum for Democracy] stands against any form of censorship in the marketplace of ideas whether imposed by government or by corporations intimidated by the response of militants or those with an inappropriately sensitive level of political correctness," said M. Zuhdi Jasser, M.D., president of the non-profit AIFD, in an .

Just to recap, after a Muslim poster on Europe's official PlayStation message boards indicated that an in-game music track, called Tapha Niang by Malian kora player Toumani Diabate, sampled audio derived from the Muslim holy book, the Koran (aka Qur'an).

Setting the book's scriptures to music is seen as offensive to some Muslims, who view the Koran's text as the word of god. The outrage prompted Sony to act immediately and recall all copies of LBP from the retail channel.

It was the wrong course of action, Dr. Jasser contends.

"Muslims cannot benefit from freedom of expression and religion and then turn around and ask that anytime their sensibilities are offended that the freedom of others be restricted," he said. "The free market allows for expression of disfavor by simply not purchasing a game that may be offensive."
