Pakistan: Mosque of "heretical" Muslim sect demolished after Islamic clerics protest and Muslims issue death threats

We've also seen Muslim death threats in the U.S. this week -- over a coloring book. The intimidation, the thuggery, the hatred, contempt and menacing of unbelievers is the same the world over -- yet the world looks the other way, or kowtows to the Islamic propaganda machine that spuriously claims that Muslims are the real victims -- although in reality Muslims are rarely the victims of hate crimes, and Islamic supremacist groups like Hamas-linked CAIR have had to resort to publishing fake hate crimes to shore up their claim to victim status.

"Caving in to pressure: Ahmadi place of worship demolished," by Owais Raza for the Express Tribune, September 4 (thanks to Mehreen):

The municipal administration has razed to the ground an under-construction Ahmadi place of worship in Jannat Wala, a village on the outskirts of Lodhran, after clerics staged protests.
Construction was suspended after labourers working at the site received death threats and some were forced to flee the village to save their lives. Muslim clerics pressurised the district government to take action when they came to know about the new place of worship. They organised processions against the government in surrounding villages and protested against what they deemed to be its ‘unwillingness to check the propagation of the Ahmadi religion.’

The government, however, denies that the destruction had anything to do with anti-Ahmadi sentiment in the community. The Tehsil Municipal Administration (TMA) razed the building on the orders of DCO Lodhran, Ghulam Fareed. More than 60% construction on the double storey building had been completed when it was torn down.

“The construction was not authorised nor was the building’s design approved by TMA which is why we have demolished it,” Fareed told The Express Tribune. “There is no other reason.”

It was declared as a store according to the DCO. Amir, a member of the Ahmadiya community, said they were not even given time to approach the courts. TMA officials said they had failed to follow the legal procedure which prompted the action.

Members of the Ahmadi community said they had protested peacefully before the DCO. This was confirmed by Maqbool Khalid, a journalist. Most of them refuse to come on record due to fear of death threats and live in fear of Ahle-Sunnat wal Jamaat members. They have been living in Adaa Zakheera, Kahroar Pakka, Dunyapur, Lodhran and Qutubpur. They have six places worship in the area.

Anti-Ahamadi sentiment? there's no such thing. Ask these Indonesian Ahmadis... if you can!

Muslim against Muslim. I came across this some time ago and thought it might be proper to place the Biblical verse here.

Speaking of Ishmael, son of Abraham, whose descendants were to become 12 nations or peoples comprising mainly the Arab people as well as some others today...
New Living Translation (©2007)
This son of yours will be a wild man, as untamed as a wild donkey! He will raise his fist against everyone, and everyone will be against him. Yes, he will live in open hostility against all his relatives."

I can't explain why these people seem so pissed-off at the slightest thing, but this helps some. Really, anyone with a rational mind cannot ever figure out irrational behavior.

Naseem would just say the attackers simply misunderstand their religion.

Everywhere in dar al Islam we see Muslim mobs screaming, rioting, protesting the very idea that anybody of another faith, or anybody of a kind of Muslim that they don't agree with, should be allowed to build a meeting-place.

They feel free to mob-attack, smash and burn churches and other houses of worship.

And yet loud is their hysterical screeching and cries of 'persecution!' Islamophobia! It isn't *fair*!!!" if, for example, non-Muslims civilly and persistently protest against the building of an enormous and ostentatious mosque (e.g. the Ground Zero Mosque) in some part of the lands of the non-Muslims.

Muslims claim the right to build anywhere they like and as big as they like within *our* lands - often openly flouting local regulations about noise, height, design, safety and traffic/ parking - whilst (within dar al Islam) they feel entitled to suppress, even by the use of extreme violence, the building of meeting-places / houses of worship by members of any other faith, or of rival Muslim sects.

Islam is a cult that fosters non-reciprocity and malignant narcissism to the nth degree.

Muslims are a peculiar breed seeped with hatred in every member's heart thanks to their following Koranic teachings !
Remember the long and fierce war between Sunni Iraq and Shia Iran in the eighties ? Muslims not only kill the so called indfidels(kafirs/kuffars)but , at times, each other like in India during their Moharrum festivals Sunnis and Shias kill each other over their disputes on the belief in the "tajis" processions in their stronghold areas normally in Uttar Pradesh state of India ! Similarly, in Pakistan which took birth as a nation exclusively for the Muslims from former India, both Sunnis & Shias join hands in killing the Ahmadias who too profess Islam and follow Koran ! Ahmadias have been tortured in Pakistan ( a nation carved out of India exclusively for Muslims from post-British Indian subcontinent) since the formation of Pakistan ! Such are "peaceful" Muslims in the Indian subcontinent ! Inshallah !

These things we can all bet on.

1. Islam is always the victim or so they say.

2. Islam is always innocent.

3. Islam is always right and never should be questioned.

4. Islam is the only culture for this world.

5. Islams Sharia Law is the only law Islam will ever obey.

Think about that, is that even even possible.?

According to Muslims it is not only possible but it is done as far back as Islam is old.

Ignorance is no longer exceptable as an excuse for complacencey. Muslims have been killing non-Muslims for far to long. There is no more excuses or justification. The facts don't lie. History doesn't lie.

Our (U.S.) legislators must learn or be told the facts. The world needs to be told the truth. Political Correctness be damned. We have all been chained to that statement long enough. Trying to appease Islam only makes us look weak and foolish. Imagine a car thief who keeps stealing cars but the police keep leting him go. What do you think the car thief is thinking? I'll tell you what he is not thinking. His not thinking "I better stop stealing cars or I'll end up in prison".

Why should Muslims change? What they are doing is working just fine for them. The jihad is moving along well and conquring the world could take place within 30 years. Seriously.....

*Why* would you expect better?

Jolene, you must realize that Averroes—Ibn Rushd—was virtually unique in history as a Muslim who defended Aristotlian reason.

His philosophy was under attack during his lifetime from mainstream Muslim figures like Ghazali, who believed any use of reason was a threat to Islam. Averroes was banished from Muslim Spain for his unorthodox views.
