The Jyllands-Posten culture editor explains “Why I Published the Muhammad Cartoons.”
“[I]f a believer demands that I, as a nonbeliever, observe his taboos in the public domain, he is not asking for my respect, but for my submission. … This is exactly why Karl Popper, in his seminal work ‘The Open Society and Its Enemies,’ insisted that one should not be tolerant with the intolerant.”
Posten is a friend of the fire-eating anti-Muslim Neocon Daniel Pipes. It’s just a coincidence that the muslim world erupts at a time when the US is seeking support for an attack on Iran.
