As you already refuted the points he made, let me tell you a little bit about Roger Köppel himself: He's a big fan of being "against". Against the mainstream that is. If most journalists say A, he needs to say B. This can be very refreshing in some cases, but most of the time, it leads to strange pieces like this one.

He would even proove that black is white and that sqwirrels are a vegetable if he thinks he can provoke and highen the circulation of his paper.
