Muslim Massacre, a new online Flash title in which players control an American soldier on a mission to kill all Muslims, has been slammed by a British Muslim group.

Progress in the title, which is free to download, is achieved by killing Arabs including civilians, Osama bin Laden, Mohammed and finally Allah, using a machine gun and a rocket launcher, according to the Mail Online.

Eric Vaughn, the freelance programmer who created the game, has described it as “fun and funny”, but the title has been attacked by Muslim groups who believe it glamorizes violence against Muslims.

“Encouraging children and young people in a game to kill Muslims is unacceptable, tasteless and deeply offensive,” said Mohammed Shafiq, chief executive of British Muslim youth organization The Ramadhan Foundation.

“'If it was the other way around, with a game featuring Muslims killing Israelis or Americans, there would be uproar and rightly so. We would urge ISPs to take action against sites like this.”

Speaking in defense of the game Vaughn said, “Anyone is free to believe whatever they won't (sic) though, because I don't even know how to interpret it myself anymore. The bottom line is that I enjoyed making it and it's fun to play.

“The Muslims represented in the game aren't meant to be based on actual Muslims,” he added.
