Iran moots idea of international Islamic human rights court

This court, of course, would complain about alleged human rights abuses against Muslims in non-Muslim states. It wouldn't say a thing about the discrimination, harassment, and worse that non-Muslims and women must endure in Muslim-majority nations all around the world today.

From AFP, with thanks to Sr. Soph:

KUALA LUMPUR - Iran has mooted the idea of an international court focussing on Islamic human rights issues, a report said on Tuesday.

Ayatollah Mahmoud Hashemi Shahroud, Iran’s chief of judiciary system, said during a visit to Malaysia that his country has formed a secretariat to look into the matter, the New Straits Times reported.

Mahmoud said discussions had also been held with Saudi Arabia.

“I am confident the Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC) will also agree to the idea,” he was quoted as saying after his Iranian delegation met the Malaysian Chief Justice Ahmad Fairuz Sheikh Abdul Halim.

Malaysia chairs the 57-member OIC.

Unlike the International Court of Justice in The Hague, which is the principal judicial organ of the United Nations, the proposed Islamic International Court would focus solely on human rights issues involving Islamic nations, Mahmoud said.

He added the court would also hear cases between Islamic countries and the West.

"KUALA LUMPUR - Iran has mooted the idea of an international court focussing on Islamic human rights issues,"

...I suppose human rights issues of non Muslims residing in Muslim countries is also out of the question....

This is an inherently comical idea, ripe for parody.

Islam and Human Rights go together about as well as Islam and Peace.

Biography of Ayatollah Mahmud Hashemi Shahrodi:

Born in Najaf, studied Shariah under Muhammad-Baqer al-Sadr, Abul-Qasem al-Khui and Khomeini.
Went to Iran and started teaching Shariah in Qom. Among his students is the well-known Abdul-Aziz al-Hakim.
Now Iran’s chief of judiciary system.

Human rights are against Allah and His eternal command in the Qur'an.

Wasn't Iran, or Iraq, or Libya the chair of the real UN Human Rights court? The global court is enough of a farce in its own right - why bother with establishing an Islamic Human Rights court?

Ah, I get it - the rights of every human to be enslaved to the whims of Allah (as interpreted by Mohammed)

"Islamic human rights". That's a good one.

Islamic human rights means Illah gives Muslims the right to be human and that is all-a right, by the way, that jihadists have yet to exercise.

Utter bollocks aimed at shoring up the Ummah before they explode into a frenzy of violence against each other and not us.

“Two suicide bombers have killed up to 90 people in a crowd of Shi'ite pilgrims streaming toward a shrine south of Baghdad, according to police.”

Next they will have peace keeping troops.

Muslims just slaughtering Muslims just because they are Muslims......Islam sure is a religion of peace....were these muslims not praying, not praying enough, praying in the wrong area, praying for the wrong things, not properly dressed, urinating in the wrong direction, standing on the wrong corner, failing to kill themselves first or not killing themselves fast enough,were these muslims threatening to listen to music or watch a dvd movie or read a book, were these muslims failing to give enought to the clerics, did they listen to the wrong cleric,..did they wake up today thinking Islam is a peaceful religion....

"I think it is what happens when a society encourages psychopathic murderers to keep breeding and passing on the brainwashing techniques - it backfires on them.

Posted by: s_sgt7 "

...what is disgusting is that none of them are protesting or supporting either the police or the military...they just show up every day , maybe hoping they get to go home in one piece...


.....just imagine such murders happening the Britain,Japan,Brisbane or such, people would certainly be patrolling the streets and would not stop searching until the killers were found...but the Muslims just seem content to show up every day and warily eye all moving and parked cars...but doing nothing...


Maybe they know...Islam is a religion of pieces...

The court was rejected for the wrong reasons. However, there are good reasons for rejecting "International" courts: They wouldn't work, and for the same reasons the UN doesn't work.

There are places on earth that call themselves 'nations' or 'states' or 'civilizations' that have no reasonable right to do so. No Islamically dominated region on earth is entitled to designate these names for themselves, since Islamic regimes do not rise to the definition of any one of these terms .. not to Nation; State or Civilization (which strictly speaking, is reliant upon a 'civil' domain .. a condition remarkably absent in totalitarian Islam.)

A civilized West came up w/a working civilization and the terms used to describe a civilization. A degraded Western p.c. enforcement has had barbarian hoards - quite wrongly - addressed as "civilizations".

Forget about "International Law" .. without nations - without civilization, it's a dangerous fantasy.

This would be the first internationalization of the ummah and islamic law. It would be the islamic counterpart of, and in contradistinction to, the International Court of Justice.

This will be the source of much grief for the West, as pronouncements, fatwas, judgments, decrees, and similar utterances will be given great and official weight in the islamic community of subscribing nations.

There will be a lot of mischief, all posing as legal and equal.

KUALA LUMPUR - Iran has mooted the idea of an international court focussing on Islamic human rights issues, a report said on Tuesday.


Yeah, like Iran is trying to promote freedom of thought and scholarship by hosting anti-semetic cartoon contests and staging forums for Holocaust deniers.

As much as they hate Jews.. they sure have a lot of chutzpah.

If they don;t like how their MoFo brethren are treated in the West.. please come and pick 'em up.. we'd be happy to be rid of the vermin.

Oh and talking about this.. NO AID FOR moslem Indonesia after the latest earthquakes!!!!!!!!

Let alla sort them out!

After reading about Islam and human rights I came to a conclusion: Women are beaten for being Muslims. (They are not worthy of being muslim).

Well, its just my conclusion. Anyway.

I love the project. And here is the

Cairo Declaration of (ISLAMIC) human rights
http://www1.umn.edu/humanrts/instree/cairodeclaration.html

They have learned well from the west: create a meaningless commission with a liberal, humanitarian sounding name and gain legitimacy with the weak-minded who never actually see or hear an accurate, authentic news report about their activities.

Someone needs to do a documentary like Al Gore's academy award winning fluff piece: Islamic America. It came to me as I was in Costco yesterday...if America was Islamic all of the women in Costco would be in burkas, accompanied by their sons,there would be no women working here, and none of the SUVs and mini-vans in the parking lot driven here by women would be here...and how many fewer vehicles would be on our roads, if under Sharia women couldn't drive? Imagine how our economy would shift, the products that would no longer be viable because women couldn't use them. And women couldn't take those Somali cabs in Minneasota because a woman can't be alone with a man...

Keep thinking. These images are important to present...
