From undisclosed locations

Here’s an example of how tolerant the Religion of Peace is…
PARIS – A French teacher hiding from Islamist death threats says he has been abandoned by the Education Ministry and has to arrange for his own safe houses when police bodyguards move him every two days.
Robert Redeker went underground after publishing an attack on Islam on Sept. 19, in which he called the Koran “a book of incredible violence” and Islam’s prophet Muhammad “a merciless warlord, a looter, a butcher of Jews and a polygamist.”
Islam, Mr. Redeker said, “exalts violence and hate.”
A lot of people agree with Mr. Redeker- including me. I guess it makes me a target for the Muslims as well.
Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin said the threats against Mr. Redeker, who teaches philosophy in a suburban Toulouse high school, were intolerable and showed that “we live in a dangerous world that is often marked by intolerance.”
The threats came amid widespread criticism of Pope Benedict XVI by Muslims who accused him of implying in a speech that Islam was violent. And they coincided with the cancellation of a Mozart opera in Berlin out of fear of Muslim protests.
Speaking from an undisclosed location last week, Mr. Redeker, 52, said he felt alone and abandoned. “The Education Ministry has not deigned to contact me to ask if I need any help,” he said.
A teacher has to speak from an undisclosed location? How sweet.
Where are the Muslim leaders speaking from? Have we heard any discourse from them regarding this? No. And we won’t. Because it is the truth: There are no disenting opinions allowed under Islam.

Redeker has to hide, but Muzzies can prance around in public and carry signs such as “Behead those who insult Islam.” I’m sick of this double standard.
