Judith Apter Klinghoffer uses the case of a 78 year old arrested Ayatolla to make a salient point:

To which I would add that the real insulters of Islam are also those of us in the West who compromise our own values to pander to the worst aspects of the Islamic world...banning piglet, firing Professors who tell the truth to Arab students, living in fear of the "Arab street," refusing to stand up to Hamas-front CAIR, inviting the opinion of the Muslim Brotherhood in our decision making, on and on...

Not remaining true to our own values and imagining that Muslims will not or cannot be expected to compromise or respect them is not just an insult to ourselves, it's an insult to Muslims as well.
