..."Writers work with words; killers write in blood. Breivik could have read all our anti-jihadic work.

Breivik could have penned some fairly innocuous “Mohammed” cartoons, as the Swede Lars Vilks did —but he would have had to live in hiding and with round the clock security. Or, like Lars Langballe, a Danish parliamentarian, he could have spoken his truth and been prosecuted for “hate speech,” just as Elisabeth Sabaditsch-W
