Frog, as I understand it the main reason for him being denied entry is because of the comments he made during an interview with the BBC in 2004. Surely you can't condone the things he said then, can you? And it's irrelevant whether the comments referred to the West or not.

I do agree that, from the little I've read, some of his other views and ideas aren't extreme at all, and I can see why he's respected by many. However, you can't overlook the "extreme" thing he did say just because he's respected otherwise.
