“Free speech under attack as never before: HRW”

Although I do not support the killing of bloggers, I also don't want them to be termed as free thinkers. Writing against Islam has become a fashion now. Government should take stern action against those bloggers who hurt religious sentiment.

Did Abraham, Moses, Jesus, Mohammad (peace be upon them all) ever kill or order killing of someone who mocked god or their faith? No. That is not how religions work. All religions are harmless and peaceful. But at the end it depends on the person who interprets them. If you want to fight those who make a mockery of religion, then first fight those who kill human beings in the name of religion.

Look at the good side: at least you have your own city. There are ethnic minority groups around the globe who are denied their rights, land and identity. Look at the people of Gaza losing their land to tyrants and terrorists and the people of Kurdistan, who don't have their own state but only their identity; they're

scattered around Iraq, Syria, Iran and Turkey.
