A young Saudi blogger’s tweets about the Prophet Muhammad have inflamed Islamists,who are calling for his execution. Mike Giglio exclusively interviews Hamza Kashgari.

Last week,just before the anniversary of the Prophet Muhammad’s birth,Hamza Kashgari,a 23-year-old Saudi writer in Jidda,took to his Twitter feed to reflect on the occasion.

“On your birthday,I will say that I have loved the rebel in you,that you’ve always been a source of inspiration to me,and that I do not like the halos of divinity around you. I shall not pray for you,” he wrote in one tweet.
