More on Fallaci

Protein Wisdom sees a velvet insurgency. When will the Left ever learn. The following comment from a visitor named TallDave to PW sees some humor in Italian political correctness.

I see the following conversation taking place in Italia:

1st Italian: Islam is sometimes evil and oppressive.
2nd Italian: You can’t say that! POLICE!! Arrest this man! He defamed Islam!
1st Italian: But in some Islamic countries, you cn be put to death for preaching Christianity, Hinduism or Judaism.
2nd Italian: Well, we don’t allow that kind of hate. That’s why we’re better than them.
3rd Italian: “Better� than “them�?! You can’t say that! POLICE!! Arrest this man! He defamed Islam!

An on it goes. What will the New York Times say on its editorial page?
