International Union of Muslim Scholars urges Norway, Denmark to halt acts offending Islam

More cartoon rage. Has the IUMS gotten around to saying anything about bin Laden yet? "IUMS urges Norway, Denmark to halt acts offending Islam," from KUNA, with thanks to Twostellas:

CAIRO, Jan 21 (KUNA) -- The International Union for Muslim Scholars (IUMS) urged Saturday Norway and Denmark to halt all acts directed towards offending Islam.

In a press release, IUMS said it will call on Muslims to boycott all Norwegian and Danish products and activities if the newspapers of the two countries do not stop publishing material aimed at offending Islam.

And what is "The International Union for Muslim Scholars (IUMS)"? Isn't it strange how fascist ideology tends to spawn groups of all sorts, with many names, in many places, all united around some idea of what constitutes the 'true and correct order for the world'. These groups grow like weeds and love acronyms. It is as if the fascist spirit cannot be contained in the individual person; it must reach out to the group, to the collective, find an identity and speak in the collective voice. And the collective can be divided infinitesimally, given its own name, its own label, and still remain homogeneous with the collective, because the collective is one in thought, in heart, in mind, an expression of the truth, a community of destiny, the Volk, the Ummah, and now a little thing known as the IUMS...

"in a press release, IUMS said it will call on Muslims to boycott all Norwegian and Danish products"

considering that Denmark's biggest export is bacon and pork, whoever IUMS are , shows that they are as stupid as their moronic fascist ideology.

long list of British dhimmi's , with lots of links to dhimmi news items.

I am offended that they are offended. Why is my apology?

can i call for a boycott of muslim countries, because their portrayal of atheists as being a lower form of pond life is offensive to me?
(being an atheist myself)

might go and set up a "international union of scholars that dont believe in imaginary things in the sky union"

(no offense intended to the non-Islam religious of you on this site...)

archduke it isn't just muslims who think Atheists are pond scum. There's plenty of xians who feel the same way. I find it amusing and they find it maddening when I just laugh at them.

I like Christians and have met many fine ones over the years. For them Jesus is their role model. We all know who the muslim's role model is which makes it only logical they'd have such a hateful out look on life.

Muslims act like bullies and brats. They need to get over themselves and join the 21 century.

I hear the Danes have named their new Prince - "Christian".

Surely that is offensive to the Muslims? Then again they would take great delight in having a royal Dane named "Christian" as a Dhimmi.

The International Union of Muslim Scholars seems to be unable to issue any refutation of the cartoons' contents. Why not? With all that collective brain-power, with all that knowledge of the Koran, Hadiths, and Sira, they should be able to tell us what is wrong with the cartoons. I haven't thus far seen a refutation. As has been the pattern historically, Islam must resort to pressure tactics of various sorts, such as these threats. Mohammad was not able to refute the critics, so he had to turn to force to establish his method. This has almost always been the tradition in Islam.

Which cartoon was unfair? Mohammad never held a sword? He never had an angry expression on his face? Muslims have never overreacted to critics? What about the depiction with Mohammad with a bomb on his head?

The Bomb on Mohammad's head cartoon.

1. Verse 8:60 says use whatever means necessary to defeat the enemy. That's open-ended as to what equipment is used in the jihad. Bombs are in that (practically unlimited) category.

2. Putting the bomb on his head? The issue of whether suicide bombing is supported, in principle, in the Koran, is not resolved. However, in the context of jihad, believers are indeed expected to slay or be slain for Allah (9:111) and do whatever is needed to achieve the ultimate goal of Islam (9:33).

So-called moderate Muslims only hurt their case by (a) failing to refute these cartoons, and (b) backing appeals to force in attempting to silence critics.

More cartoons please!!!!

The new prince is called Christian:

http://www.jp.dk/english_news/artikel:aid=3509122/

We have had ten kings called Christian, all danish kings since 1513 have been called either Christian or Frederik. Some muslim in a program today suggested that the new king sould be callad Omar instead in order to show acceptance of the muslim minority. I sincerely hope he was joking...!

Which cartoon was unfair? Mohammad never held a sword? - Archimedes

Muhammed even had names for his swords.

I remember reading somewhere - it might have been Ibn Warraq's 'Why I am not a Muslim' - that the reason for the embargo against pictorial representations of Muhammed was purely for reasons of vanity, on his, Muhammed's, part. In his fifties when he became powerful, he felt he was past his prime in the looks department.

Why don't they just command them to bow in submission and pay the jizya?

Calling tariq ramadan,
calling tariq ramadan . . .

tar baby, you've been busy,
you and the brothers.
But surely you can do better
than iums? no fancy word play,
but hey, something a little more poetic,
don't you think?

Was it a surprise to see
the Free, the Danes, the Northmen
stand their ground,not bow down, not submit?

Anyone who has seen the cartoons will agree they are despicable. There is nothing funny about the early barbarous period of Islam. We need more cartoons in Islamo- realism, not Islamo- impressionism. Anyone who is angry enough to kill you over a cartoon should be incarcerated or institutionalized. Perhaps we need a Grand Theft Islam (Copyright- 2006 All Rights Reserved), to allow someone straight out of the madrass to vicariously achieve heaven. We can have him steal, rape and pillage infidels for jihadbucks and then seek Jihad where the program unites him with Allah and all his sex toys in paradise.

Aaaaah, poor babies

test

An explicit call to restrain free speech on behalf of a putative protected class.

MORE KORANS MORE HADITHS MORE SIRATS MORE MOSLEMS MORE ISLAM MO'

Too bad about all the already laid groundwork that makes selective restraint possible. Before, it was always to quiet down relatively harmless whiners and manipulators. You know, this group or that group.

Not so with the Moslems. They be more serious people. They be scowling. They be laughing all the way to Global Sharia.

"International Union Of Muslim Scholors
International Union of Muslim Suicide Bombers
International Union of Muslim Subway Bombers
International union of Muslim Wife-Beaters
International Union of Islamic Beheaders
International Union of Taquiya training for Muslims.
International Union for illegal immigration of Muslims
International Union for gaining the world for Allah.

I trust that there has been a large scale Muslim evacuation from these countries ,how can they live in such intolerance? OH that's not the case more wish to move to the West. I don not understand I don"t go where I am not wanted why do Muslims? I wish to go to Suadi Arabia and read good poetry but I'm sure that would be band so do I go there no.

Honestly. Someone asked to stop cartoons. Silly request(by our standards) but does it really need amazing responses like this:
"
International Union Of Muslim Scholors
International Union of Muslim Suicide Bombers
International Union of Muslim Subway Bombers
International union of Muslim Wife-Beaters
International Union of Islamic Beheaders
International Union of Taquiya training for Muslims.
International Union for illegal immigration of Muslims
International Union for gaining the world for Allah.
"
And this is just plain wrong. I don't think death threats were made yet:
"Anyone who is angry enough to kill you over a cartoon should be incarcerated or institutionalized"

More veiled racism from jtf. Here muslims are subtly to fachist Nazis(They don't like Jews. The comparisons fizzle out after that):

(they have)..fascist ideology....These groups grow like weeds. ...fascist spirit cannot be contained. a community of destiny, **THE VOLK**, the Ummah, and now a little thing known as the IUMS...

Excellent article on the kind of people that abuse language with terms like "Islamo-fachists" and "Ultra-liberal". http://home.att.net/~hugh2you/examples.html

You have it backwards. It is you who is just plain wrong here. Wise up. Please check out the Copenhagen Post, from a DW archive posting.

Sorry, that should be "you are," of course.

"police arrested a 17-year-old, who admitted to phoning in the threat."

Sorry. Well the plural "threats" is wrong.

Kazuya,

Well, here are some more then:

So, Islam and its followers say everyone on the planet, Muslim or not, has to follow their rules, or else. And the "else" is violent chastisement unto death. Nice.
