Top Muslim institution slams Charlie Hebdo for Muhammad cartoons reprint
“Pay attention to US, O Unbelievers!!! Thus do we set free our vicious and crazy, justifying their desire to terrorize you with terror.“ [IsraelTimes] Egypt’s highest Moslem authority al-Azhar condemns French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo...  A lefty French satirical magazine, home of what may well be the majority if the active testicles left in Europe...’s decision to reprint cartoons of Prophet Muhammad, as the trial opened over the subsequent 2015 terror attack on its Gay Paree office. "The insistence on the criminal act Sorry — it’s only illegal in backward parts of the world. Civilized people raise an eyebrow and move on.... to republish these offensive cartoons embeds hate speech further and inflames the emotions of faithful followers of religions," al-Azhar’s Observatory for Combating Extremism says on its Facebook page.Only your religion, O powerless ones. The rest of us prize self control over childish temper tantrums. Charlie Hebdo, whose taboo-breaking style makes it a beacon of free speech for many but a lightning rod of racial insensitivity for others, marked the start of Wednesday’s trial by republishing the controversial cartoons that had angered Moslems globally.Good for them. Remind us all what we are fighting for. Al-Azhar, also considered the foremost religious institution for Sunni Moslems, says the contentious decision to reprint the caricatures is "an unjustified provocation of the emotions of nearly two billion Moslems around the world."Related: Al-Azhar: 2020-06-01 Knife-wielding woman shot and killed by police, days after her brother was arrested for ISIS terror plot Al-Azhar: 2020-04-25 Hamas, Islamic Jihad Underscore Continuation of Resistance till Achieving Complete Liberation of Palestine Al-Azhar: 2020-04-25 Minneapolis grants noise permit for 'historic' Ramadan call to prayer in major U.S. city Posted by: trailing wife 2020-09-03 |
