The Price of Being Free
It is very sad - the story about the cartoons in Jyllandsposten.
They appeared half a year ago, in September 2005. A children's
book author couldn't find anyone to illustrate his biography of
Mohammad. So he wrote to Jyllandsposten and the newspaper
took up the challenge to test how Danish Islam and freedom of
speech would collide in this matter - as such things should be
tested, always.
Notably, as non-muslims, we are not required
to pray five times a day, to not eat pork, and in particular, to
not draw pictures of the prophet Mohammad. We are entirely
free to do so, because we are non-muslims.
However, I do think that some of these rather bad carricatures were
really offensive, in particular one of them (the one where Mohammad
wears a turban shaped as a bomb). The newspaper showed bad taste
and should have apologized to the offended Danish Muslim minority.
But then again, there is no law requiring them to do so. And they
didn't (until recently). So protests against the newspaper in Denmark
last year were completely justified and they happened in Denmark
as such things happen in a democracy.
However, a Danish Muslim organization went to the Middle East
and spoke with representatives about the issue, and thereafter,
things have spun entirely out of control. It has gone from being
a matter between Jyllandsposten and the Danish Muslim minority,
to become a matter between Denmark (possibly EU or the West
at large) and the Muslim world at large. This confrontation, which
is generated by radical forces in the middle east through prayers,
Arab media, and other sources, is utterly unreasonable and unjust.
I think it is fuelled by the wishes of these governments to detract
attention from their interior problems. They are using the case
as a show-off of strength towards the easy but unlikely Scandinavian
target - the same Western countries that have hoistorically treated
the Arabs most fairly in the Middle East crisis.
Now they want Denmark to apologize, a logical absurdity, since
Denmark as a whole has no responsibility whatsoever for what an
editor of a newspaper decides to write in a democratic country.
Some Arabs think that media are connected to the government
(because theirs are) and so they generated this very unfortunate
upscaling of the conflict. Now, the fire has started and it is feeding
from all the frustrations and hid away anger towards the West of the
Muslim world.
Scandinavia has always been on the forefront of peace and help to
the Middle East. The Scandinavian support for the third world
is second to none in terms of % of GDP. In the Israeli-Arab conflict
Scandinavia has been the possibly most non-biased promoter of
peace, giving a lot of credit to the Arabs and being a major builder
of the Palestinian Authority. Ever heard about the Oslo treaty?
Now they are burning my flag and my embassies in Syria, Libanon,
Palestinian territories, Pakistan.... for a silly, stupid cartoon that
the Danish government can not excuse because we have FREEDOM
OF SPEECH. The newspaper has apologized, it was an internal
Danish debate, ok? The newspaper is even going to court. The court
will decide what was wrong and what not. That's the end of story.
Now, I know that there is much anger and frustration in the Muslim
world towards the West, some of it definitely justified and most of it
due to the US and the UK. While suspected, to see the magnitude
of this anger is deeply troubling. It seems to have been the spark
the ignited the fire. The UK and the US are not showing much
support for freedom of speech right now. This saddens me. I thought
they were our allies. In addition, I thought we shared values. Instead,
Bush calls the cartoons insulting - which I partly agree with - but in
a single statement without showing any support at all towards
the Danish view point of free speech and the fact that Denmark as
such is not to blame. But I guess controlling the media is neccessary
to "export democracy", although that makes no sense to me. Those
to "blame" are the fundamentalists in the Middle East and those in
the West who started the war in Iraq and now don't know what to
do with it. But these people are in a win situation right now, by
having Denmark as a very unlikely focal point in such a conflict.
Bush deserts the defences of democracy and free speech
that he verbally holds in such high regard. Fortunately most American
blogs I have seen are supportive of the Danish. At one such blog I found
the image above.
Very sadly, the anger is directed towards Denmark - a liberal, tiny
country with an (until now) rather pro-Arab foreign policy, but which
contains a newspaper that has published a stupid cartoon of the prophet.
So what is more important - the good that our government has done to
the Arab countries and Palestinians, or the drawings of a single Danish
newspaper that can do what it wants in a democracy?
Fundamentalists thrive on the lack of any sense of proportion.
What can I say - even I am starting to think that all this time, supporting
the Palestinians economically was wrong. I know it's wrong to think like
that but when they burn my embassies, and for such lack of reasons,
dialogue is over. The hardliners have to stop now or they inflict damage
beyond repair on their countrymen.
And to all Americans believing in free speech out there: Thanks for the support!!
