Radical scholars should be allowed to talk to university students on how acts of terrorism are justifiable, a minister has said. Higher Education Minister Bill Rammell said freedom of speech was the “most effective” means of addressing extreme views that did not break the law. He said it was “critical” that universities encouraged a culture of “openness, free debate and tolerance”. He added: “We prize academic freedom and freedom of speech as ends in themselves and as the most effective way of challenging the views which we may find abhorrent but that remain within the law.”http://www.themuslimweekly.com/newsdetails/fullstoryview.aspx?NewsID=F261B065EE76ADC77DA79C61&MENUID=HOMENEWS&DESCRIPTION=UK%20News
