You don't see me trying to ban videos because they contain a Cross or image of Christ or some other blasphemous rubbish. I just get on with my life and live and let live. As far as I am aware America is not yet an Islamic state ruled by Sharia Law, so Katy Perry is free to do as she pleases and long may this continue.

Exactly. Christians are made fun of all of the time, and most of us don't get all butt hurt about it. In fact, some of it is deserved from time to time. The US is not an Islamic state, and I don't see it becoming one anytime soon. Those in Islam who are that intolerant, are free to move back to their 3rd world s***hole if they don't like it!

I'll bet her lip lock with Miley Cyrus did not endear them to her much either.

I'm trying to understand the hate towards the video. Think about and actually decipher the video.
She says, "I'm coming at you like a dark horse."Horse in heiroclyphics in Ancient Egypt, means new kingdom.
Then she says, "Are you ready for it?" Are you ready for a New Kingdom powered by women?
Cleopatra tried to have power over Caesar and Mark Anthony. She trys to promote (Girl Power)
Cats are guardians and a metaphor for feminine.
The eye of Ra is is also interpret as the daughter of the sun god whom comes at you with a vengeance.
The three men come to her and think they can buy her love. They are turned down because she sees through their lies.

If I'm thinking really why the Muslims dislike the video, is because it promotes women in the lead and control.

It's apparently too complicated to simply not watch the video. Sad. They should be ignored.

Are you making things up in the links again? You do know it's a sign of disconnection with reality (psychosis) when imagine things that you think are real...but aren't really there.
From the linked article:

Unik Salihu from Sweden said, “I as a Muslim, think this is a disgrace. Does she want to start a war against Muslims? This video is insulting to us and needs to be removed before something happens! (sic).”

Mr Salihu needs shut up AND to leave Sweden then since it's def Ok for Saudi Arabia to NOT allow Christian churches. Otherwise he's a screaming hypocrite!
