"...What blasphemy to one person may not be blasphemy to another. Some consider it their own point of view or in America...freedom of speech..."
Definition of Blasphemy is very simple and clear to all people and there is no room for misinterpretation. So a person choses to stay in a country should know the laws and follow it.
Here, Western countries are being considered as a standard against which freedom of speech / womens right etc etc. is being measured.
The problem is there is no principle which the west follows. On one hand they grant asylum to salman rushdie on the other hand they prohibit people from speaking against holocaust.

Just 2 yrs back islamic scholar Dr. Zakir Naik was denied entry to UK though he always voiced his opinion against terrorism (http://peacetimes.net/2010/06/dr-zakir-naik-banned-in-canada-follows-the...)
On one hand US projects itself as a champion of human rights and then it is perpetuating grave human rights violation in guantenamo bay.
On one hand US and west say they are against terrorism and then they support state terrorism against paleastine
On one hand they say they are champions of democracy and on the other hand they support dictators as long as they are serving their interests.
Give me 1 example where west is adhering to any principles and is practicing what it is preaching ???
