Quote Du Jour
Flemming Rose: "I think the left is in a deep crisis in Europe because of their lack of willingness to confront the racist ideology of Islamism. They somehow view the Koran as a new version of Das Kapital and are willing to ignore everything else, as long of they continue to see the Muslims of Europe as a new proletariat."

So true. Thanks for the quote.
My pleasure. The more I hear from Rose, the more I like the guy.
Rose, in the article, emphases mine:
in March of this year the United Nations Human Rights Consul, which is the highest international body in the world for the protection of human rights, passed a resolution condoning state punishment of people criticizing religion. I think this is a big scandal. This was a direct result of the "cartoon crisis." Fortunately the European Union voted against it. But countries like Russia, Mexico and China supported the resolution. And in this resolution, they call on governments to pass laws or write provisions into their constitutions forbidding criticism of religion. This would give a free hand to authoritarian regimes around the world to clamp down on dissidents.
That such a resolution was even considered is appalling and cause for alarm.
Just as with the Law of the Sea Treaty, I suspect that the resolution will be revived again. The left is persistent.
