"But the problem is that the Islamist extremists do not want our right to. That I would not practice religion, they don’t tolerate this. They want to kill us. If we say anything against religious fanaticism, then they come to kill us. So this is a problem. They don’t believe in freedom of expression. I believe in freedom of expression. I believe not only my freedom of expression, I believe my enemy’s freedom of expression… But most of the time, we find that extremists do not believe in freedom of expression of other people who do not accept their ideas."
