It Can’t Happen Here? Muslim Organization Wants International Law Criminalizing Criticism of Islam

[Wingnut]

In the eventuality that it becomes law, I hope some of y’all will visit me in prison.

The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), which is made up of 56 nations plus the Palestinian Authority, met Thursday in Jeddah and called for the adoption of an international law criminalizing criticism of Islam. But that kind of law could never be adopted in the United States, could it? Think again.

The OIC’s secretary-general, Dr. Yousef al-Othaimeen, called upon the nations of the world, both Muslim and non-Muslim, to crack down on speech that was “insulting religions or prophets.” It was clear, however, that al-Othaimeen couldn’t have cared less about speech insulting Christianity or Judaism or Hinduism or Buddhism or any of the revered figures of those religions. He cared only about criticism of Islam.

“There are laws against anti-Semitism and racism,” said al-Othaimeen. “So we request a law against mocking religions.” He didn’t explain why laws against racism should lead to laws against criticizing belief systems, since, after all, contrary to the assumptions of Rachel Dolezal, Shaun King, and Elizabeth Warren, one cannot change one’s race, but one can change one’s beliefs, including religious beliefs. Al-Othaimeen likely knows this, but cited racism because he knows how to pull the right strings to get the Western intelligentsia to do what he wants.

“Islamophobia,” he continued, “is a sentiment of excessive fear against Islam that is transformed into acts of intolerance and discriminations against Muslims and even violent crimes against people with Islamic attires.”

It's already a law in many western "civilized" countries. You can be arrested for "hate" speech in Britain and a number of other countries if you are overheard criticizing Islam or supposedly other creeds/beliefs.
Of course, there are many libs/leftists in the U.S. who would be more than willing to pass laws outlawing "hate" speech. Hate speech would, naturally, be anything libs say is hate speech.

The only "law" we need regarding islam in America is this one.
Change this:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

To this:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. The followers of muhammed are specifically excluded and denied the protections of this amendment along with any and all other Constitutional protections. Neither the United States nor the Several States will offer such protections or liberties to the followers of muhammed."

Happy Thanksgiving!

Works for me. Islam is NOT a religion. It is an international organized crime organization.

According to Liberals and many Democrats, the Bible is what they call 'hate speech'. And Yes, they would make the Bible 'illegal' if they could.

I have absolutely no doubt about that at all. Not just the Bible,either. They want to destroy any and ALL forms of religion that doesn't favor their view of a One World Government/Dictatorship.

Right now they are good with Islam because Islam is creating the anarchy they need to take over governments,but the very instant they get control they will strike out at Islam also. The ONLY "religion" they will tolerate is the "religion" of Total Government Control.
