Stanley Kurtz (see below) led off last Thursday's conference on Free Speech In An Age Of Jihad, and was followed by a veritable NR All-Stars - Andy McCarthy, Cliff May, Jay Nordlinger, etc.
Stan mentioned how Ezra Levant and I had succeeded in moving the debate in Canada. Here's a small example of that. Last week, the Ontario "Human Rights" Commission decided to dismiss the Canadian Islamic Congress suit over my "flagrant Islamophobia" (the federal and British Columbia cases are still proceeding). Here's how The Toronto Sun begins its editorial on the subject:
Only in the wacky world of human rights commissions could any of the following happen.
"The wacky world of human rights commissions": I love the insouciance of that first sentence, the assumption that every reader will get it. Before this thing started in December, Canadian newspapers didn't use phrases like that about their "human rights" enforcers. There's a long way to go, but these frauds have had the worst four months' publicity in their history.
