What I meant was that freedom of speech is restricted in ways that would prevent people from questioning the regime (government) and people who are in power. For example, in Turkey you cannot criticize Ataturk.. in the west you cannot ´sympathise with terrorists´ -- because making people scared of ´terrorists´ is part of the foreign policy and that´s how they justify their middle eastern political agenda.
I´m not 100% sure but I think in my country I can say I support Al Quaida out loud (if I wanted to which is not, not true!). The only thing is that this support should be entirely verbal, no documents, gifts or whatever I think. So only saying that one supports terrorists is not forbidden here.

Quite some I think. And I didn´t say you get a fine in France, I said I think it is that way.

I think in America, there is a law that in case they suspect - no proof or no action is occured - that someone has some links or supporter of a so called group, they can detain you for an unlimited time..

OK. But is America THE west? They might think so, I don´t (and many with me). I´m not from the US.

Yeah I ´ve heard of it. It´s a law the Bush administration made after 9/11 I think. It caused people to be suspecious of neighbours, friends and family in certain areas in the US

You know Tami, you should ask an atlas for your birthday. ´The west´ exists of many countries, many times very different in laws or culture. Like your Turkey is not the same as Saudi-Arabia, Indonesia, Nigeria or Iran, mine is not the same as the US, France or Switzerland.
I never denied that bad things happen(ed), and such an absurd statement that nazi´s were muslims can only be in your brains!!
