THE LIMITS OF RESPECT

Eyropean Commission vice-president Franco Frattini wants Europe's Muslims to respect European values if they themselves want respect:

We can guarantee respect of traditions of the Muslim community only if these are not in contrast with our core rules, even if they are unwritten."

He suggested that... silence by the European elite during the pope controversy was the same one that occurred some time later when Italy was shocked by cases of Muslim girls being locked at home or being killed by their own families.

"We are not governed by sharia, after all," he said in an interview with the Italian daily La Repubblica published on Monday (9 October).

I wonder if Irfan Yusuf recognizes the Islam that locks ups and kills its females?
