Officials at a Pittsburgh museum have promised to “repair our relationships with the Muslim community” amid criticism of its decision to postpone an Islamic art exhibition because of the Israel-Hamas war.

Staff at Frick Pittsburgh believed pressing ahead with its Treasured Ornament: 10 Centuries of Islamic Art exhibition, which had been scheduled to open Saturday, would be “insensitive” to the Jewish community and others, according to the museum’s director and internal emails reported by the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

“It’s disheartening to witness such insensitivity when blanket statements are made about an entire religion, particularly when they have the potential to incite harm in the Pittsburgh Muslim community,” CAIR-Pittsburgh Executive Director Christine Mohamed said in a statement. “We cannot overlook the trauma and suffering experienced by the Palestinian people, with more than 8,000 lives lost, including almost 4,000 innocent children. The extent to which this tragedy is overshadowed underscores a troubling lack of empathy and humanity – something that even the most forgiving person would find deeply disturbing.’

If Hamas had given a flying fuck about children they'd have moved them out of harm's way instead of using them as human shields.

Seems these days, especially by the Left, that a child can be up to the age of 17.

Is there such a thing as "Islamic art?" All I ever see come out of Dar al Islam is calligraphy based on verses of the Quran...

If it was the other way around would it be insensitive to Muslims?
