NO to Political Islam 9 February, 2oo6

In this edition of No to Political Islam, Azar Majedi interviews Maryam Namazie, editor of WPI Briefing and the host of International TV, Roy Brown, President of International Humanist and Ethical Union from Geneva, and Hamid Taqvaee, leader of WPI on the issue of the caricatures of Mohammed and the angry demonstrations in the Middle East.

Must these caricatures be banned?
Who organized these demonstrations?
What is the role of Political Islam?
Shouldn’t we restrict freedom of speech when it can stir violence?
Freedom of expression verses provocation, what must be done?
Does it help to apologize? Should one apologize?
What about respect for people’s beliefs?

These and other questions are asked and discussed.
Plus a brief report on the Tehran’s Bus workers’ protest and the international solidarity, an Interview with Bahram Soroush, from International Labour Solidarity of WPI.
