Reader comment on item: [The Canadian Islamic Congress:] An Islamist Apology
Submitted by Ross Howard (Australia), Jul 19, 2005 at 19:52
I was pleased to read that Daniel Pipes has extracted an apology and retraction from the Canadian Islamic Congress. It reverses a hitherto dangerous trend. Hopefully this will spread.Earlier this year in Australia, two Christian pastors were found guilty of vilifying Islam in an action brought by the Islamic Council of Victoria (VCAT Reference No. A392/2002). One of those pastors had been forced to flee his homeland, Pakistan, because of his Christian faith, only to be prosecuted here.
Keep up the good work.
