Is this the same Jonah Goldberg who suggested just last year that we should go into Africa, "guns blazing," to impose democracy on the poor benighted Africans?

Jonah Goldberg's suggestion was to increase the freedom of Africans. Anne Coulter's suggestion was to revoke the freedom of Moslems (innocent and guilty alike). The two suggestions stand in stark contrast.

The current freedom of Afghani Moslems is the freedom to live under a system of Islamic law which punishes conversion/"apostasy" with death. Exactly how free is that? The contrast is hardly so stark and clear.

Muslims have freedoms?
Care to list which countries?

You wouldn't be parsing your words would you?
