Rs 51-crore reward for Danish cartoonist’s head, says UP Minister ($10 million, India)
Indian Express ^ | 2/16/06 | MV Rao

LUCKNOW, MEERUT, FEBRUARY 17: The Minister for Minority Welfare and Haj in the Mulayam Singh Yadav government, Haji Yaqoob Qureishi, has announced a cash reward of Rs 51 crore for anyone who beheads the Danish cartoonist who caricatured Prophet Mohammad.

While the state government has defended the Minister’s remark as the “voice of someone whose religious sentiments have been hurt,” a senior member of the All India Muslim Personal Law Board has slammed it calling the reward “anti-Islamic and anti-humanity.”

Speaking to The Indian Express, Qureishi defended his announcement saying it was a “concerted decision” and the killing of a person who blasphemed Islam was “justified.”

Addressing a gathering at the Faiz-e-Azam College in Meerut after Friday prayers today, Qureishi announced the reward and urged Muslims to show “proof” of being himayat-e-Islami by joining in the protest.

Taking the cue, several shopkeepers downed shutters with speakers demanding an apology from the Danish government. They also demanded that New Delhi snap diplomatic ties with Denmark.

When contacted, UP Principal Secretary, Home, Alok Sinha told The Indian Express: “The minister’s reaction was the voice of someone whose religious sentiments have been hurt. Moreover, since the reference was to a person who is far off, there is no question of an FIR being lodged against the minister.”

However, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board member and Naib Imam of Aishbagh Idgah, Maulana Khalid Rasheed Firangi Mahali, criticised the Minister’s call for the killing of the cartoonist.

“The Minister’s statement is anti-Shariat, anti-Islam and anti-humanity,” Mahali said. “The western media is already up against Islam, the minister’s statement will only add fuel to the fire.” The Prophet believed in pardoning others for “sins committed by them,” the Maulana said, “Who are we to issue such irresponsible statements?”

"Hey, you forgot to mention London, Paris, Antwerp, Stockholm and Oslo, my friend."

The Muslims should not be in Europe in the first place. The Euro-weenies should grow a pair and deport them all.

Saying that won't move them out of there. Muslims are in Europe forever. There is nothing that can be done about it now. Sad, but Europe should have thought about it when it started letting them in AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, MADE SURE THEY DON"T INTEGRATE, BY ALLOWING THEM A GOOD SHARE OF DHIMMITUDE.

And by the way,

Eventually Europe will awake and get rid of them all.

Technically citizens maybe, but how can a non-European person ever be a real citizen of Europe? Answer, they can't.

They'll eventually be deported. People like Jean-Marie LePenn and Nick Griffin of the BNP are becoming more popular.

What do you mean? There is nothing Europe can do. There are over 50 million Muslims on Europe, many of them white. Do have any idea how nearly impossible it is to deport a hundred thousand Muslims, leave alone millions?

I said eventually didn't I?

You seem to delight in Europe's fall. Resentment against your former colonial masters perhaps?

A bad case of schadenfruede?

"The Muslims should not be in Europe in the first place. The Euro-weenies should grow a pair and deport them all." Deport them all, eh? Easier said than done though. Even second gen immigrants who're born in Europe? Do-able methinks but risky. Citizenship will then be decided on the basis of race? I'd rather have religion as the sole criterion. Deport all muslims, citizen or not. The problem isi what if North africa ain't willing to take them back? India faces a problem with 50 million Bangladeshi illegals in India who B'desh claims are not its citizens. Well, now what?

Dump them in the Islamic countries. If the muslim countries resist, bomb them into submission.

"India faces a problem with 50 million Bangladeshi illegals in India who B'desh claims are not its citizens. Well, now what?"

That's india's problem not ours.

Not in the least. "Eventually?". Time-frame please?

I seem to delight in the fall of Europe? Hell, no. Europe did everything ON ITS OWN to ensure its fall. No help from any outsider needed, whatsoever.

Just because you say "eventually" doesn't mean the Muslim vermin will vanish from Europe magically. Get that? Schadenfreude yourself!

It's not impossible or even hard, if you have the resolve. Simple. After Europe gets out of it's multiculturalist malaise, they will realize that their cultures are being diluted and round up the Muslims and deport them. So the Muslims will riot. They will be crushed. Can you say "live ammunition?"
