Gene Simmons has clarified his previous remarks against Islam, saying he was taken “out of context.”
Kiss bassist Gene Simmons, who sparked outrage in Australia after making comments seen as anti-Muslim, said he was speaking only of “extremists” and that his remarks were taken out of context.
“I was asked about extremists,” he said Friday in an interview with The Associated Press. “And thatís what I was talking about ó only extremists.”
I would suggest that Muslim leaders accept this explanation, since they are constantly asking us to believe them when they invoke the “out of context” defence.
