    Germans not free to insult religion?

    German court convicts man for insulting Islam Okay, what the guy did was quite amazingly rude, inexcusably so; but a conviction for insulting a religion? Not harassment, not "hate speech", but "insulting religion"; a crime that carries up to a 3 year jail sentence. (I'm curious if German...

    Germans release terrorist

    The really screwy thing is that he was arrested in 1987 while trying to board another plane with liquid explosives. I can't say that this is entirely unexpected, but what chance does anyone have of defeating an enemy if there is such an imbalance of national strategies? On one side we have...

Heres why...

    A question for Germans -The Enlightenment

    In Germany how is The Enlightenment viewed and taught in schools? What do Germans teach and think about Marx, Hegel, Bauer, Nietzsche, etc? Is Marx seen as the pinnacle of the Enlightenment Era, as one who ended the Enlightenment, as one who ruined the Enlightenment, what? Do Germans see The...

    French, Germans on Saddam Tribunal?

    I am not sure whether a tribunal should be solely Iraqi or International. But, if it is international, should France and their fellow travelers participate? I vote yes since Saddam is in no position to bribe them. The difficulty is that the sensitive europeans think that the death penalty is...
