Mark Steyn: ‘Islam itself has no feeling for free speech…’

Mark Steyn writes:

…and so the more Islamic a society gets the less free speech it will have. (…)

The problem is “moderate Islam” – because “moderate Islam” is largely indistinguishable from “radical Islam” in its views on free speech, Jews, the role of women, apostasy, and the special privilege that must be accorded to Islam by everybody else.

The difference between the savages who murdered Charb and his colleagues and the “moderates” who pinned Islamophobe of the Year medals on their corpses is that the jihadists are killing a few individuals while the mods are killing the very spirit of a free society.

If you believe in all the above, you can’t be a citizen of a functioning pluralist western society, and, wittingly or otherwise, you’re part of the campaign to replace that society with something else.
