Sorry to say, but it's precisely here that intolerance and war breeds: when 
we condition our broadmindedness to include only those who are as 
broadminded as ourself. Like: "Jews don't have the right to live, cause they 
won't let us do it properly." (Anonymous Bomber) "Terrorists don't have the 
right to a fair trial, cause they wouldn't give us one."(xxxx - fill in 
suitable name).
A certain guy told us to turn the other cheek* - Voltaire's saying is in the 
same spirit.

* or was it: to turn the other cheek, but not before our agressor also does 
it!? Julian?
