[quote=Anonymous][quote=Muslima][quote=Anonymous]Muslima, I think you generally bring a useful viewpoint ( to which I disagree to varying degrees), but you have know that the pro-Palestinian demonstrations degenerated into numerous attacks to synagogues and other anti-Semitic acts.   They were not anti-Israeli-policy -- they were against Jews.  People chanting "death to the Jews" in the middle of Paris.  People throwing stones to synagogues.  You know that that's the reason some of them were banned -- for public safety.  Please don't erode your credibility by portraying that banning them were a demonstration of Islamophobia.  I agree that there is quite a bit of Islamophobia in France, but this is a bad example.[/quote]

I doubt that every single person protesting was rioting and throwing stones at synagogues. But you prove my point  that France has chosen security over speech previously and so the absoluteness of yesterday's Freedom of Speech disingenuous! We can agree to disagree.[/quote]

Muslima, do you understand what you are saying?????  France (right or not) banned protests in support of Gaza last summer after prior protests had degenerated into riots resulting in violent attacks against French Jews and synagogues.  so the ban (again, right or wrong) was AGAINST THE VIOLENT PROTESTERS, their freedom of speech was limited because some of them were expressing it by attacking other people.  the cartoonist did not violently attack anybody, they drew satirical cartoons, there was no need to limit their free speech because they did not hurt anybody.
