"Stop portraying the Prophet Mohammed as a suicide bomber or more Muslims will become suicide bombers and murder you blasphemers." That's pretty much what Algeria's Ambassador to the U.N., Idriss Jazairy, who serves as chairman of the U.N.'s Ad Hoc Committee on Complementary Standards told the Associated Press in an interview about efforts by the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) to pass a U.N. treaty banning blasphemy against Islam.
The exact quote from the AP:
"If we keep hitting this glass wall and say there's nothing you can do about Islamophobia — you can do something about anti-Semitism but Islamophobia is out of bounds — you give an ideal platform for recruitment of suicide bombers,"
The blog UN Watch reported on November 12th on a letter dated October 29th sent by the OIC to the Ad Hoc Committee about the proposal. (PDF file of letter here.) The letter was submitted by Pakistani Ambassador Zamir Akram.
The letter says religious insults and ridicule "creates social unrest and is a form of psychological violence."
The letter decries several European nations: Britain, Denmark, the Netherlands and Switzerland for having offended Islam.
In 2005, the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten published a series of cartoons by various artists depicting Mohammed, whose image in any form is prohibited under Islamic law.
The AP reports the Obama administration has been engaging in diplomatic "trench warfare" to "squash the proposal."
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton spoke out strongly against the proposal last month.
The complaints in the letter and by Ambassador Jazairry that Jews are already protected is laughable--and cynical coming from the one religion with many adherents dedicated to eradicating Jews from the planet.
The OIC letter complains of "negative stereotyping" and "violence" against Muslims. The OIC needs to have a talk with Ambassador Jazairry about his threat of suicide bombers if Islam is not protected by the U.N. He certainly is promoting violence and reinforcing a negative stereotype about Islam.
I think it’s actually the SAME religion....since their ‘Allah’ would have to be Satan to demand all the bloodshed of innocents and suicides. Or maybe just Satan’s top demon czar, perhaps.
Hmmmm, antisemitism versus Islamaphobia. In other words, being anti-Semitic is disfavored but “rational” while fear of Islamicism is “irrational”? It should either be Semitiphobia or anti-Islamic. The terms right now imply a different value. Frankly, the term “phobia” is way overused. And there is nothing irrational about fear of Islamic fanatics.
Yep. Mencken.
This is what the Obama appology tour has netted an increased tension in the muslim community against the west. Obama policies are making us less safe.
Will he now have us bend down to the muslims?
I preferred you are either with us or with the terrorists, that was a true rallying cry from a good man.
They are moving the non muslim world towards what might end up being modern day crusades..... they’d better knock down their radicals on their own, or they will all feel the wrath.
I shall henceforth refer to the taking of a #2 as "taking a Zamir Akram."
In use: "Man, that Tex-Mex food is doing a number on my insides. I might have to take a Zamir Akram within the next half minute.
In use: "So there the dog was taking a Zakir Akram on my yard, right in front of me, as I read the paper..."
Any doubts as to why Iran wants the nuke,,,,to use it on Is. and us. Time to nuke em HARD, hit Mecca, Tehran etc. until they sue for peace, hit em awhile longer then make the terms extremely tough.
This is the last evidence needed to do away with the U.N.
Obama needs impeached and removed from office or this will worsen.

Islamophobia = identifying terrorists who are islamists, as islamists.
He brings up anti-Semitism - the fight against racism in the country and anti-Semitism always raced ahead when appeals were ultimately made to reason and morals, and never when mayhem and death were threatened or actually carried out.
It doesn’t appear to be in the political interests of these do called Muslim leaders to SEE that.
It is the same religion.
“Islam” is a creation of Satan to counteract the will of God.
They are moving the non muslim world towards what might end up being modern day crusades..... they’d better knock down their radicals on their own, or they will all feel the wrath.

Right, we’re doing the war on terror, er the war on manmade disasters, pretty much PC. What happens if that gets removed?
I am a live and let live sort of guy. But if you insist on messing with me I plan to make you pay a price. And my guess is that I can hurt you more than you can hurt me.
I loved it when Sarah Palin used Ronald Reagan's quote on the Hannity show last night, “We win, you lose!” Amen!
So, the muzzies are outraged. I’m shocked, I tell you, shocked. sarc/
And in other news, it snows in Alaska in February.
Surely you’re not expecting the current administration to do something like this......
Works for me.
Though I’d note that we also need parking lots...
Islam needs a Reformation, but I don't believe that the Islamic culture is advanced enough, or civilized enough to re-write the more violent tenets of their religious texts.
As you said, they will probably force the civilized world to execute an allied, global response to their madness. Mecca and Medina will likely not survive that response, when it comes. Neither will millions and millions of muslims.
You got it right IMO.
War is hell. We have a right to defend ourselves. Punish each attack by taking away their culture piece by piece until they stop attacking or their culture has disappeared.
We win. They lose.
So, the mohammedans are willing to commit mass murder to prove how peaceful they are?
Foaming at the mouth insanity as a defining trait isn’t just limited to the pedo-prophet...
My guess is they would ban this sing-along. CAIR had it pulled from YouTube.
