I completely agree to that!
Fanatism of any form, Christian, Islam, Jewism, Hinduism, Communism, Fascism
and so on, is bad bad bad, even for the fanatics.
The letter distributed is threatening which to my understanding is not a
part of Islam.
It's also blasphemy: The latest Profet and messenger of God was Muhammed
(PBUH), and Sheikh Ahmed should not take that roll.
