An official Pakistani delegation plans to travel to Brussels to ask the European Union to adopt speech codes that would prohibit such excrescences of free speech as the recent movie, Fitna, by Geert Wilders (view here), or the famous Danish cartoons. They intend to threaten further violence if their request is not fulfilled...and to offer to hold talks on religious harmony. (See the report in Jihad Watch.)
I wish I felt more confident that the EU was likely to defend either freedom of speech or freedom of religion.
