"Enough lessons from these reactionary bigots!" France Soir editor Serge Faubert wrote in a commentary explaining why his newspaper had printed the cartoons. "Just because the Koran bans images of Mohammed doesn't mean non-Muslims have to submit to this." I'm shocked. This sounds nothing like a surrender monkey.

Interesting that the first meaningful push-back against these Muslims in Europe is coming from newspaper editors and publishers. Their own government leaders have been too timid to do or say much of anything.

"I'm shocked. This sounds nothing like a surrender monkey."Yes it does. They love to exercise their rights. They're just reluctant to defend them.

I'm shocked. This sounds nothing like a surrender monkey. He was fired. The French paper's owner is Egyptian. I guess this was the editor's way of announcing his retirement
