| In which Mullah Krekar once again attracts negative attention from the no-longer tolerant authorities. |
You have the right to remain silent...
in Norway after praising last month's deadly attack on the Charlie Hebdo
...
A lefty French satirical magazine, home of what may well be the majority if the active testicles left in Europe...satirical weekly in Gay Paree, police said Friday.
The Iraqi Kurd preacher known as Mullah Krekar said in a television interview broadcast on Wednesday that "those who draw caricatures of Mohammed must die".
Krekar, who was only freed from prison late last month, was locked away

Thursday night on accusations of inciting crime, police said.
"I am obviously happy with what happened in Gay Paree," the 58-year-old said in the interview with Norwegian channel NRK.
Krekar also responded "yes" when asked if he believed those who carried out the attack were heroes.
When a cartoonist "tramples on our dignity, our principles and our faith, he must die," he said.
"Those who do not respect 30 percent of the Earth's population do not deserve to live."

Another five people were killed in the three-day spree, including four Jews bumped off at a kosher supermarket and a policewoman.
Krekar was released from prison at the end of January after serving a two-year, 10-month sentence for making threats against Prime Minister Erna Solberg before she came to office and three Kurds.
Krekar, whose real name is Najmeddine Faraj Ahmad, has been living in Norway since 1991.
He has been at risk of deportation since 2003 after Norwegian authorities ordered him to be expelled as a threat to national security.
While courts have upheld the ruling, Norwegian law bars him from being deported to Iraq, where he risks the death penalty.

The preacher and Ansar al-Islam figure on U.N. and U.S. lists of terrorist groups or individuals.
