His point seems to be:
1.) Christians are (were?) worse than Muslims about forced conversion.
2.) They have no right to criticize Islam.
3.) But they (Christians) have the right to express opinions, as long as they don't upset Muslims.
What he does not address, of course, is the irrational and violent reaction of his co-religionists to the Pope, the Danish Cartoons, Salman Rushdie, ETC.
If he cares to defend the sensitivities of Muslims to Western style free speech, which is the only system that would publish or tolerate his criticism of Christianity.
Why in the world should the West tolerate the immigration or even the presence of those who ascribe to his point of view.
I'm holding my breath.....
