“…the massacre is now provoking soul-searching in the province regarding its obsession with the place of Islam in society.”

Beautiful. So now apparently there is soul-searching among some Quebec politicians regarding their “fiery rhetoric” about islam since this apparently influenced the mosque attacker.

How come then, when an islamist commits a terrorist act, I don’t read about soul-searching in the islamic community about the fiery rhetoric against Western values that is uttered on a continuous basis by imams in the mosques of Canada?

We are not only guilty of measuring with different standards, we are also engaging into political correctness to the point of contributing to our own demise and to the disappearance of the Western values that turned many 1st world nations into bastions of modernity, democracy, gender equality, peace and prosperity.
