For Ezra: Update

The least I can do is express my right to freedom of expression by publishing Mohammad cartoons; especially since some Canadians are having to spend time and capital doing the battle for freedom of expression for the rest of us.

If we aren't dilligent, fundamentalist Islam will turn our own institutions against us because so many of our freedoms have been entrusted to those who respect freedom the least ... (L)iberals.

If you stay quiet, you are doing exactly what the Islamists want. Silence is absolutely the greatest enemy of freedom. Legal arguments to and fro with all sorts of complexities also are the enemy, for it is in that complexity that truth always gets lost. That’s why Ezra is keeping it simple and hard hitting.

Imagine, the complainants incur no cost, while the defendants incur all the cost. This alone serves to silence us. Each and every one of us who pays taxes in Canada, is paying for the persecution of Ezra Levant.

Make noise, write, email, spam ... let it be known that you and I have the right to bitch, complain, and criticize Islam, Christianity, Liberals, neo-cons, conservatives, dippers, Buddha, Jesus, Mohammad, and even Don Cherry.

Ezra does battle with Islam's enablers ... click.

Update:

Mark Steyn with some feedback:

Ms McGovern, a blandly unexceptional bureaucrat, is a classic example of the syndrome. No "vulnerable" Canadian Muslim has been attacked over the cartoons, but the cartoonists had to go into hiding, and a gang of Muslim youths turned up at their children's grade schools, and Muslim rioters around the world threatened death to anyone who published them, and even managed to kill a few folks who had nothing to do with them. Nonetheless, upon receiving a complaint from a Saudi imam trained at an explicitly infidelophobic academy and who's publicly called for the introduction of sharia in Canada, Shirlene McGovern decides that the purely hypothetical backlash to Muslims takes precedence over any actual backlash against anybody else.

Bloggers, I challenge you to publish one or more of the cartoons ... just because you can.
