Saudi king urges UN action against religious insults: The king also called on Saturday for the “unity of the Islamic nation (and) rejecting division to face the nation’s enemies” as he urged for dialogue among Muslims. “Dialogue strengthens moderation and ends reasons of conflict and extremism,” he said. There can be no dialogue when you’ve assumed the authority regulate the speech of those with whom you disagree. There can be no room for moderation when the demand you want satisfied is the extermination of free expression. And the reasonable person has no choice but to remain in ideological conflict with extremists and autocrats like this Saudi Arabian that believes an accident of birth has given him the right to control other men.
