"The day that it is able to absorb and digest satire without death threats and burning effigies I will be satisfied that the Muslim world has undergone the much-needed reform that I am always talking about."

The Islamic Sufis have known for over 1,000 years just how effective humour can be against foolish rigidity and willful ignorance. In the right circumstances, jokes can be as deadly to an ossified, repressive culture as JDAMs. Fire away!

This is good, too.
