Description:
News article from February 2006 discussing the "inconsistent rules in Europe governing free speech, tolerance, and the boundaries of public expression."

Many countries, they say, do not abide anti-Semitic outbursts, but will tolerate cartoons that to many Muslims are deeply offensive." From The Christian Science Monitor.
