Religious Groups Place $1.6 Million Bounty on Hebdo Staff

[Rhinodawg]

Religious parties Jamaat-e-Islami (JI), Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) and Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat (ASWJ) announced a bounty of Rs100 million on the people who made and published the caricatures.

Hundreds of activists led by JI’s Abdul Mastan, JUI-F’s Amir Hidayatul Haq and ASWJ leaders protested against the cartoons on Friday in Shabqadar and adopted a declaration urging people to boycott French products.

Addressing the protest, Mastan demanded that the federal government expel the French ambassador from Pakistan, while JUI-F’s Maulana Wakeel Ahmad said Pakistan should call a session of the United Nations and rally for a ban on publications insulting religion and Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).

A similar demonstration was also held in Tangi tehsil at Farooque Azam Square where JUI-F MNA Maulana Gohar Shah, JUI-F Charsadda Amir Hashim Khan, JI Charsadda Amir Misbahullah along with other leaders demanded action against the controversial cartoonists and urged the Islamic world to unite against such freedom of speech.

1. I guess its a NO to freedom of speech.

2. It's a shame that some religious nuts God isn't great enough deal with infidels himself.

3. Well, some people see things differently.

4. I'm sorry, but I don't understand the point you are trying to make.

If their (religious nuts) god were truly great, why would he need mere mortals to do his dirty work?

I'm not picking on Islam, I mean my statement to apply to any religious fruit loop that takes it upon himself to act for his/her God.

9. Hmmm, so if we believe in democracy, should we endorse the right...

...of those countries where large majorities support it to have it?

12. Grumpy...

I thought you would take notice of my post.

I'll bet you that ISIS , Boko Harem and AQAP would score an even !00%.

5. I don't see a single woman in that photograph.

I wonder why that is?

6. I don't see a single homosapien in that photograph.

At least in the modern day sense. It seems to be a bunch of neolithic/stone age types that must have stumbled through a time portal into this century.

[Coventina]

11. homo sapien = wise man. I have to agree with you.

But, you are insulting the neolithic homo sapiens who invented agriculture and civilization itself by comparing these guys to them.

7. "Wal Jamaat"

Ok... we can get the walton's involved now, as that is clearly a rip off of their trade marked store name. Finally some money will be on our side!!

8. edit: change "religious" to "terrorist"

[Coventina]

15. Nope, if they claim this is in the name of religion, then the label stays.

"Terrorist" can be added, however.

10. These religious groups are obviously not true muslims.

Islam, like the other Abrahamic religions, is a religion of peace, beauty, and purple unicorns that fart strawberries. Anyone who says otherwise ought to be summarily executed for blasphemy.

[Rhinodawg]

14. Funny you should mention that..

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

13. Hopeless - these guys are hopeless

And there are so many of them in the grip of this cancer.

16. ...

It can't be posted too often, IMO.
