Plain and simple truths that few people dare acknowledge (and none of those few are in the Washington establishment).
“Pamela Geller: If Loretta Lynch Wants to Ban ‘Violent Talk,’ She Should Ban the Quran,” by Pamela Geller, Breitbart, December 5, 2015:
In the wake of the San Bernardino jihad slaughter, Obama’s jihad denial took a malevolent and tyrannical turn. The day after a horrific ISIS rampage, Obama’s Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, pledged to an Islamic supremacist lobbying group that she would prosecute anyone who used “anti-Muslim” rhetoric.
Lynch declared: “When we talk about the First Amendment we [must] make it clear that actions predicated on violent talk are not American. They are not who we are, they are not what we do, and they will be prosecuted. My message not just to the Muslim community but to all Americans is: we cannot give in to the fear that these backlashes are really based on.”
If Lynch is serious in prosecuting hate speech, then she will have to start closing down mosques and banning the Quran. She wants to restrict the First Amendment so as to curb “actions predicated on violent talk?” Then she should ban this “violent talk”:
And slay them wherever you come upon them, and expel them from where they expelled you; persecution is more grievous than slaying. But fight them not by the Holy Mosque until they should fight you there; then, if they fight you, slay them — such is the recompense of unbelievers, but if they give over, surely Allah is All-forgiving, All-compassionate. Fight them, till there is no persecution and the religion is Allah’s; then if they give over, there shall be no enmity save for evildoers. (Quran 2:191-193)
Men are the managers of the affairs of women for that Allah has preferred in bounty one of them over another, and for that they have expended of their property. Righteous women are therefore obedient, guarding the secret for Allah’s guarding. And those you fear may be rebellious admonish; banish them to their couches, and beat them. (Quran 4:34)
They wish that you should disbelieve as they disbelieve, and then you would be equal; therefore take not to yourselves friends of them, until they emigrate in the way of Allah; then, if they turn their backs, take them, and slay them wherever you find them; take not to yourselves any one of them as friend or helper. (Quran 4:89)
This is the recompense of those who fight against Allah and His Messenger, and hasten about the earth, to do corruption there: they shall be slaughtered, or crucified, or their hands and feet shall alternately be struck off; or they shall be banished from the land. That is a degradation for them in this world; and in the world to come awaits them a mighty chastisement. (Quran 5:33)
When thy Lord was revealing to the angels, ˜I am with you; so confirm the believers. I shall cast into the unbelievers’ hearts terror; so smite above the necks, and smite every finger of them! (Quran 8:12)
Make ready for them whatever force and strings of horses you can, to strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others besides them that you know not; Allah knows them. And whatsoever you expend in the way of Allah shall be repaid you in full; you will not be wronged. (Quran 8:60)
Then, when the sacred months are drawn away, slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them, and confine them, and lie in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they repent, and perform the prayer, and pay the alms, then let them go their way; Allah is All-forgiving, All-compassionate. (Quran 9:5)
Fight those who believe not in Allah and the Last Day and do not forbid what Allah and His Messenger have forbidden — such men as practise not the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book — until they pay the tribute out of hand and have been humbled. (Quran 9:29)
Allah has bought from the believers their selves and their possessions against the gift of Paradise; they fight in the way of Allah; they kill, and are killed; that is a promise binding upon Allah in the Torah, and the Gospel, and the Koran; and who fulfils his covenant truer than Allah? So rejoice in the bargain you have made with Him; that is the mighty triumph. (Quran 9:111)
O believers, fight the unbelievers who are near to you; and let them find in you a harshness; and know that Allah is with the godfearing. (Quran 9:123)
When you meet the unbelievers, smite their necks, then, when you have made wide slaughter among them, tie fast the bonds; then set them free, either by grace or ransom, till the war lays down its loads. So it shall be; and if Allah had willed, He would have avenged Himself upon them; but that He may try some of you by means of others. And those who are slain in the way of Allah, He will not send their works astray. (Quran 47:4)
When Lynch made her revolting statement, the bodies were still warm in San Bernardino. Eyewitnesses inside the conference room at the center described the scene as “surreal”: “It was unspeakable the carnage that we were seeing….There were victims who were clearly, obviously deceased outside of the conference room. To be honest, it was a little surreal. You train for it and you know your job is dealing in reality…but I did the job I was supposed to do –- go in there.” The eyewitness recalled that the faces of the survivors showed “pure panic.”
Yet when she spoke to the 10th Anniversary Dinner of Muslim Advocates, the group that got the Obama administration to scrub all counter-terror training materials of any mention of jihad and Islam, Lynch said that her “greatest fear” was the “incredibly disturbing rise of anti-Muslim rhetoric” in America.
After jihad attacks in Garland, Chattanooga, Boston, Fort Hood, the University of California Merced, and now San Bernardino, that’s the take-away. Jihad slaughter is Obama’s clarion call to impose the blasphemy laws under the sharia (Islamic law). Lynch said: “The fear that you have just mentioned is in fact my greatest fear as a prosecutor, as someone who is sworn to the protection of all of the American people, which is that the rhetoric will be accompanied by acts of violence.” Lynch has also called on Muslim parents to contact her if their children are bullied in school – that’s just grooming more Clockmeds.
Loretta Lynch said that the San Bernardino jihad attack gave her a “wonderful opportunity.” She said, “We’re at the point where these issues have come together really like never before in law enforcement thought and in our nation’s history and it gives us a wonderful opportunity and a wonderful moment to really make significant change.”
“A wonderful opportunity?” To impose the sharia.

Godwin says
Correct ! Correct ! Pamela is 101% correct.
Jay Boo says
Absolutely!
Muslims and their allies are such lying hypocrites
The Qur’an is indefensible — and we know it..
EYESOPEN says
Absolutely. This _itch is beneath contempt.
Shane says
I hate Islam as well as Communism, and Fascism and I will not apologize for that. Islam is a religion of violence and the Koran is a book of hatred, violence, and misogyny. We should not hate all Muslims and advocate killing them all when we can solve most of the jihad problem by stopping all Muslim immigration and refugees, and end all student visas for people from Muslim majority countries.
no submission says
the koran is illegal hate speech under many laws. Geller is correct.
Spot On says
If Loretta Lynch wants to ban wicked speech, all she need do is shut her mouth.
Jay Boo says
Loretta Lynch and Obama must always find a surrogate target to vent outrage otherwise their shameless and callous indifference to the suffering of Islam’s victims becomes too obvious to hide.
Carolyne says
Loretta Lynch does not have the legal authority to abrogate the First Amendment. I am guaranteed the right to say whatever I wish, whenever I wish, against any group I wish, so long as I do not publically advocate the violent overthrow of the US Government, which Islam does every day. If she starts prosecuting everyone who criticizes Islam, there are not enough prisons to hold them all and she does not have the staff to prosecute all of us.
The people who voted twice for the Muslim in the White House have caused this coup d ‘etat against our system of government and installed a Muslim and his associates in control of our government. He is a tyrant and an arrogant sob. OK, Lynch, prosecute me.
Shane says
It was entirely predictable that Obama and his crew of Islamophiles would be more concerned about protecting Muslim Americans from harsh words than about protecting Americans from more Islamic jihad attacks.
Angemon says
What of non-muslim children who are bullied? Are they allowed to contact her too? You know, jewish children being harassed by muslims, christian children being bullied by muslims, hindu children being targeted by muslims, etc?
Jay Boo says
“Lynch has also called on Muslim parents to contact her if their children are bullied in school” or are willing to make the claim regardless of the truth.
She is grasping for a distraction.
This is an urgent appeal by her in hopes that she can find a Muslim to portray as the so called “(real victim)” of the attack in SB.
Lesley says
Can my non-religious kids with Judeo-Christian values call on Ms. Lynch when they are scared of another crazy Muslim opening fire on people in a public place? Who will assuage their fears?

Wellington says
Islam and free speech are incompatible. So is it the case with modern leftism and free speech. And so is it the case with those twin idiocies that Islam and modern leftism embrace with enthusiasm, i.e., political correctness and multiculturalism, each of which idiocy has also infected the thinking of even many who call themselves conservatives. We’re not just talking a double whammy here in America against freedom. We’re talking a triple whammy.
Yes indeed, it’s this malevolent triple whammy versus the First Amendment. It’s going to be a close call but I’m still betting on the First Amendment. And thank you, Founding Fathers of America, excoriated and unappreciated as you are nowadays by fools aplenty, for the First Amendment, for the Second Amendment, and for the Constitution as a whole, which four-time Prime Minister of the UK, William Gladstone, called the greatest document ever created by man. The great Gladstone also said, as many here at JW already know, that as long as the Koran exists there will never be peace in the world. Wow, talk about a damn good call, no?
EYESOPEN says
Spot-on Wellington.
Jay Boo says
Muslim President Obama is to give a speech tonight at 8 PM EST to reassure us that the attack has nothing to do with Islam and ask us to move on to other things like gun control.
Kilfincelt says
My sentiments exactly. Also, while Lynch is at it, what is she going to do about those in “Black Lives Matter” who say that people should be killing cops and whites?
Lynch is a hypocrite as is Obozo!!!!
Jay Boo says
Loretta Lynch and Obozo wish to inform “Black LIES Matter”
Edward says
Pamela Geller: “If Loretta Lynch Wants to Ban ‘Violent Talk,’ She Should Ban the Quran”
Yes, Ms. Geller’s forethought is reasonable for in a sense the Quran is certainly the purveyor of aggregate violence mandates.
Banning the violent rhetoric passages in the Quran would end the objectionable dialogue of the written content…….that urge the demise of the non-Muslim’s.
Pamela Geller and her colleague, Robert Spencer are raising awareness to the American public of what dangers to expect if and when the Islam religion magnifies it’s overreach…….of which we have already witnessed. The Ft Hood, Chattanooga and other terrorist incidents seem to be learned manifestation in action. Thanking both Pam and Robert, for their keen discernment of material (corporeal) and immaterial (spiritual) information.
God Bless America’s Sovereignty!
abad says
Loretta Lynch was a Baptist as a child, did Obama convert her to Islam?
It appears so.
Jay Boo says
Baptist tend to be conservative, yet I have noticed that many of Baptist churches in the Southern US do not have Crosses atop. For a Christian church to deny the Cross is strange. What is the point other than to go out on “dress up Sunday”?
Can any Baptists explain this?
Rudy says
And rather than ban Islam and its abhorrent ideology (despite all the many, many attacks and terrorist events), the Left calls for Confederate ideology in the form of flags to be banned, despite no one alive seriously advocating refighting the Civil War on the basis of that ideology. Dead Confederate generals are exhumed and their statues removed, but Islamic propaganda from the Quran on down is widely available and encouraged to the point that our children have to learn about it in school.
EYESOPEN says
Revolting, isn’t it?

Edwin1683 says
According to Loretta Lynch, this terrorist attack has given rise to not one but two “wonderful’s”: a ” wonderful” opportunity and a “wonderful” moment. It must be hard for her to restrain her excitement and keep from singing “Celebrate Good Times” from the top of the nearest building, but maybe she should tone it down a bit; no point in getting the dhimmis upset, now, is there?
Jay Boo says
“Celebrate Good Times”
——————————————–
Since you asked, here it is back by popular demand
The COEXIST PARTY
“Tonight I am the special guest of honor, up here all alone.
I feel such excitement so deep within my bones.
The religious spirit is very infectious here tonight.
With reverence, I am dressed in my spotless modest white.
Everyone circles around with but a single thought.
The crowd is so restless, each hoping to find just the right spot.
Nothing will be broken on this special occasion.
Tonight is alcohol free; it’s a sacred celebration.
No one will get wasted. No one will get stoned.
Everybody will chant, until I can’t help but moan.
Tonight I will share in their old ritual game.
No one will stumble; each will take careful aim.
All will focus on one target; that is their ritual’s goal.
This is for their religion, or so I am told.
The black stone represents the light within their souls.
It is such a great privilege; I can’t even begin to mention.
I am so proud to be the center of their undivided attention.
I am extra lucky to have been chosen to share in their faith.
Listen at how the crowd shouts their “god is so great.”
Defenders of Allah’s honor need not have humility or even grace.
Why does the imam clutch that book so tight?
The poor man can barely contain his delight.
Such religious leaders are so full of faith.
So full of it, that they even say we can coexist and celebrate.
Let’s all join together and enjoy this ceremonial fling.
I am so happy that I’ve just got to sing.
♬ ♬ There is a party going on right here, a celebration to last throughout the year
Celebrate good times come on… Celebrate good times come on
cause everything’s going to be alright
It’s time to come together, let’s celebrate, everyone around the world
Yahoo! ♬
But, why is everyone now holding a stone?
I would go to ask, but I am a little tied up here in the center alone.
Ouch that hurts. Gosh that stings.
But, yet I am so happy to make Muslim friends that I can’t help but sing.
♬ ♬ Come on…It’s a celebration
Yahoo!…Yahoo ♪♫♬♩♪♫♬”

Jay Boo, that is brilliant. And so sad and so surreal.

VIOLENT TALK…for instance…
MUSLIM BRUTALITY
Sira:Ishaq:455 (At the Battle of Badr)
As the bodies were thrown into the well, one of the Muslims saw the body of his father thrown in. He said, “My father was a virtuous, wise, kind, and cultured man. I had hoped he would become a Muslim, but he died a kafir. His abode is Hell-fire forever.
MUSLIM HONOR KILLING
Sahih Muslim:019:4457 “The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) used not to kill the children, so thou shouldst not kill them unless you could know what Khadir had known about the child he killed, or you could distinguish between a child who would grow up to he a believer (and a child who would grow up to be a non-believer), so that you killed the (prospective) non-believer and left the (prospective) believer aside.”
MUSLIM APARTHEID
Koran 28:86 says, “Therefore lend not thou support in any way to those who reject Allah’s Message.”
MUSLIM SUPREMACISM AND PERSECUTION
I descended by Allah with the sword in my hand, and my wealth will come from the shadow of my sword. And the one who will disagree with me will be humiliated and persecuted. (Ibn Hisham, The Life of Muhammad, 3rd ed., pt. 6, vol. 3 (Beirut, Lebanon: Dar-al-Jil, 1998), p. 8
MUSLIM TERRORISM AND PLUNDER
Bukhari:V4B52N220 “Allah’s Apostle said, ‘I have been made victorious with terror. The treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand.'”
MUSLIM DECEPTION
Bukhari:V7B67N427 “The Prophet said, ‘If I take an oath and later find something else better than that, then I do what is better and expiate my oath.'”
MUSLIM WAR CRIMES
Koran 47:4: “Strike off the heads of the disbelievers” and, after making a “wide slaughter among them, carefully tie up the remaining captives.”
More Ham Ed says
Especially since the unholy ko ‘ran speaks violent verses to current-day followers. There is no old-koran new-koran there is no reformation, there is no teaching of Salvation through Grace. Unlike non-islamic texts which merely contain a record of what was spoken to the leaders of that ancient day.
mortimer says
Loretta Lynch has no knowledge of the JIHAD DOCTRINE, the KAFIR DOCTRINE or the TAQIYYA DOCTRINE and has no desire to increase her understanding of POLITICAL ISLAM.
Without an IN-DEPTH KNOWLEDGE of political Islam, it is impossible to fight it.
Loretta Lynch is intentionally refusing to do her job by refusing to understand the problem.
She should be replaced by someone who has studied the JIHAD DOCTRINE IN-DEPTH!
Kepha says
No, Pam, don’t call on that fool Lynch to ban anything. She won’t know where to stop without people running riot in the streets and making the country a bad place to live. Rather, let’s work to get her removed from office.

In the wake of the San Bernardino jihad slaughter, Obama’s jihad denial took a malevolent and tyrannical turn. The day after a horrific ISIS rampage, Obama’s Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, pledged to an Islamic supremacist lobbying group that she would prosecute anyone who used “anti-Muslim” rhetoric.
………………………
She’s going to prosecute anyone who dares say that Muslims should not slaughter us? *Horrifying*.
More:
Loretta Lynch said that the San Bernardino jihad attack gave her a “wonderful opportunity.” She said, “We’re at the point where these issues have come together really like never before in law enforcement thought and in our nation’s history and it gives us a wonderful opportunity and a wonderful moment to really make significant change.”
………………………
She considers the slaughter of 14 innocent people at a Christmas party to be a “wonderful opportunity”? Sometimes even I am shocked.
And as noted, what kind of “change” could such an atrocity usher in? Only the horror of Shari’ah.
Of course, this will only happen if we let it–but Loretta Lynch–and her boss–seem happy to embrace it. *Ugh*.
This is nothing new for Loretta Lynch, though–at Harvard she belonged to a group that brought representatives in from the PLO. The group was led by Mohammed Kenyatta, who expressed his support for the terrorist organization.

All here make sure to not miss reading News Corp.’s CEO Rupert Murdoch remarks at the (“hawkish”-‘Politico-ism’) covered decently by the distinctly liberal Politico here: “Murdoch UNLOADS on Obama: ‘WE ARE HERE NOT TO APOLOGIZE FOR AMERICA” “ http://www.politico.com/story/2015/11/henry-kissinger-rupert-murdoch-fox-216294 December 1, 2015 9:06 am Obama Nation
Murdoch is an Aussie, naturalized American citizen, and shows here he well is an American Patriot, truly one of us here. It is truly inspiring to see some, at least, of our American Patriots and Politicians coming out with backbone and cajones, here and many other places, both men and women, in this existential struggle, with evil on earth, islam, the ultimate criminal gang, the mafia and nazis on turbo steroid boost!
Women have as much an investment in this struggle as do men, just a bit different, slavery, torture, misery, and brutality and executions for all, among those of us who know the written details.
As I declared last night, “With the AG’s remarks, it is clear as can be, that all of islam should be outlawed, banned and declared illegal finally, in America at least, then everywhere, globally, eternally, since all three “sacred” criminal gang’s books, including the oh so important law (sharia), is all about commanded and blessed pure hatred and violence and evil, done by no judge and jury, or rarely so, but as a command, to, of, and, by any individual member. Further within the gang, such crimes are stated in such a way, especially within the penultimate hadiths (generally considered even more sunnah important than the koran), that about all criminal acts have a way to be blessed, or executed without or with little punishment, such as honor killing. (And don’t forget the laughable whorehouse in the sky reward, for the martyrs death’s, hmmmmm, a lotta dirty minds!!!) But I repeat myself……”
There is no reason this organized gang, organized at its founding by three written books, for total violence, fear, hatred, deceit, and banditry eternally, and maintained by the trilogy of books, including at least discreetly over hundreds of examples of commanded and fake god authorized criminal acts, done in slavery to and for a fake worthless and powerless god, called allah, equal to mohammet (he didn’t want to be left out of the goodies-i.e. booty!), and ought to fall under organized crime statutes.
Be aware, SUCH ANTI-CRIME LAWS COULD APPLY EQUALLY TO ALL OTHER RELIGIONS, BECAUSE ESSENTIALLY NO OTHER ACTUAL RELIGIONS SUFFER FROM CRIMINALITY AND DO NOT ORDER CRIMINAL ACTS of deceit, slavery, murder, butchery, torture, rape, pedophilia, stoning, AND HUNDREDS MORE CRIMINAL ACTS AND PRINCIPLES of violence, et al. And which ever do, if any exist that I am not aware of, if no one heeds and does such acts, no crime. THAT LEAVES CHRISTIANITY AND OTHERS OUT FROM HAVING ANY CONCERN, since vast majority of accepted religions have no such powerless God who needs humans to enforce sick criminal goals of violent criminal physical or mental acts in any true religion. ONLY ONE IDEOLOGY, islam for 1400 years of history, CONTINUOUSLY, OFFENSIVELY, and variably in quantity of crimes, is “GUILTY, GUILTY, GUILTY”, ON EVERY COUNT OF SICK CRIMINALISM, PURE, and IT IS ALWAYS ISLAM.
The point here is, only one gang, cult, ideology, fake religion is a physical existential threat to Americans and other good people in the world and globally! This proven threat to the globe must be eliminated.
That gang is islam, like nazism, destroy it out of existence, like nazism, except where it has an audience in the gangs ME lands, for the moment, hotbeds of wild west evil. There is a following there, nazis are like a pet for many of them over there.

Hindu Islam is the most appropriate answer to fight this scourge born of Arab Islam. Hindu Islam ie the great ancient tradition od democracy and tolerance of non-Arab Islam of non-Arab Asia ie Hindu India.
Hindu Islam is non-Koranic/non-Mohammedan/non-Arab in all ways and respects.
The AfPak area is its birth-p
The real problem we are facing is not Islam as such, it is basically Arab/Muslim Imperialism which Hindu India has been facing since the very birth of Arab Islam in the Desert of Arabia in 7th century. 9/11 in India had happened in 10th century AD when the great Hindu temple of Somnath on Gujrat coast of India had been razed to ground by Mahmud Gazni.
This is an ideological war we have to deal ideologically. This is a war freedom freedom and enslavement by the authoritarian fascist forces-the terrorists.
Matthieu Baudin says
Pamela is right, one of the books that ought to be placed near the top of the ‘hate speech’ list is the Quoran; it is an ongoing violent tirade against Unbeleivers, the voice of an Old Tyranny from the deep past that either needs to drop most of its baggage and radically transform, or fall into the dustbin of history so that we can all live happier, less traumatised, civilised lives.

TIME FOR THE CALCUTTA KORAN PETITIONS IN COURTS OF LAW OF EVERY FREE NATION
Calcutta Quran Petition
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Calcutta_Quran_Petition
The Calcutta Quran Petition (Bengali: কলকাতা কোরান মামলা) is a book by Sita Ram Goel and Chandmal Chopra, and published by Goel under his Voice of India imprint. The first edition was published in 1986, the second in 1987 and the third in 1999.
The subject matter of this book is censorship, the banning of books and the Quran.
Himangshu Kishore Chakraborty letter[edit]
On July 20, 1984, H.K. Chakraborty wrote to the Secretary, Department of Home Government of West Bengal, demanding the ban of the Quran.[1] He wrote again on 14 August 1984, but received no response. Chakraborty lived in Bangladesh before moving to Kolkata, and witnessed the behaviour of the Muslims towards the Hindu minority in Bangladesh during the Partition of India and later.
Chakraborty thereafter met Chandmal Chopra, who also wrote to the Department of Home Government of West Bengal on March 16, 1985.[2] But also Chopra’s letter wasn’t answered. Chopra therefore filed a writ Petition at the High Court.
Chandmal Chopra’s petition[edit]
Chandmal Chopra tried to obtain an order banning the Koran, by filing a Writ Petition at the Calcutta High Court on 29 March 1985. The petition claimed that Sections 153A and 295A of the Indian Penal Code, and Section 95 of the Criminal Procedure Code were often used by Muslims to ban or proscribe publications critical of Islam, and stated that “so far it had been the privilege of the Peoples of the Book to ban and burn the sacred literature of the Pagans.”[3] Chandmal Chopra thought that the Koran “on grounds of religion promotes disharmony, feeling of enmity, hatred and ill-will between different religious communities and incite people to commit violence and disturb public tranquility…”[4]
Chandmal Chopra also included a list of several dozens of Quran verses that “promote disharmony” in his petition. The book claims that these Quran verses embody one of the main themes of the book: “Nor have these passages been culled at random from different chapters of the Quran with a view to making the book sound sinister. On the contrary, they provide an almost exhaustive list of Allah’s sayings on a subject of great significance, namely, what the believers should believe about and do to the unbelievers…”
The Telegraph of May 9, 1985 reported that the Union Government would make itself a party in the case, and the Union law minister Ashoke Sen and the attorney-general of the Government of India were going to take action against the case.[5][6] Muslim lawyers after a meeting condemned the case. According to The Telegraph of May 10, the Chief Minister of West Bengal called the petition “a despicable act”. Other politicians in the Lok Sabha at New Delhi, and the Minister of State for Law condemned the Petition.[7][8]
Pakistan’s minister of state for religious and minority affairs claimed that the petition was the ‘worst example of religious intolerance’, and he urged the Indian government to ‘follow the example of Pakistan’ in ensuring freedom of religion.[9][10]
The petition was however dismissed in May 1985. The text of the judgment is included in the book. The Attorney-General of the Government of India and the Advocate-General of West Bengal appeared in the case and argued against Chopra’s petition.[11]
On June 18, 1985 Chandmal Chopra filed a review petition, which was dismissed on June 21.
Riots[edit]
The petition by Chandmal Chopra also led to many riots in India and Bangladesh.
The Statesman reported that “at least 12 people were killed and 100 wounded all are poor Hindus” in a border town of Bangladesh during a demonstration of 1000 people.[12] In Dhaka, at least 20,000 Jamaat-i-Islami supporters demonstrated against the petition. The demonstrators were trying to storm the office of India’s High Commission.[13][14] Other riots followed in Kashmir and Bihar.[15]
After the case was closed, the Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir, during a mass rally in Srinagar, demanded action against Justice Padma Khastgir who permitted the petition to be filed. During this mass rally, one person was killed and others injured.[16] A “hartal” (strike) against the interference in Muslim personal law was observed during which all shops and colleges were closed.
Sita Ram Goel[edit]
On August 31, 1987 Chandmal Chopra was arrested by the police and kept in police custody until September 8 for publishing with Goel this book on the petition. Sita Ram Goel had to abscond to avoid getting arrested.[17]
The authors write in this book that they do “not stand for a ban on the publication of the Quran. We take this opportunity to state unambiguously that we regard banning of books, religious or otherwise, as counterproductive. In the case of the Quran, we believe and advocate that more and more non-Muslims should read it so that they know first hand the quality of its teachings.”[18]
The book was received with great interest in India and abroad, according to Goel.[19] Goel also read primary Islamic sources like the Urdu translations of six Hadis during his research for this book.[20] In one chapter, Goel also compares Genghis Khan, the Mongols and Tengiri with Islam.

The Calcutta Quran Petition
The Koran, also spelt as Quran, the so-called religious book of the Muslims the world over.
It is a Book which incites violence, disturbs public tranquility, promotes, on ground of religion, feelings of enmity, hatred and ill-will between different religious communities and insults other religions or religious beliefs of other communities.
Non-Muslims have to learn to knock out Islam’s ideological fangs which are rooted in the Quran.
The Book has verses which preaches cruelty, incites violence and disturbs public tranquility. Chapter 4
The Book promotes religious enmity, hatred and ill-will between different religious communities. Chapter 5
The Book insults other religions or religious beliefs of other communities. Chapter 6
While the Koran abounds with saying which incite violence, insult the religious beliefs of other communities and even exhort the Muslims to kill and murder non-Muslims, the problem is aggravated by yet another fact which has been true in the past and is universally true in our own times that unlike other communities Muslims are, and even fresh converts tend to become, highly orthodox people and follow the sayings of the book with a fanatical zeal with the result that whichever country has their sizable number amongst its population can never have peace on its soil.
This was said in 1985 and it is still true today 2015
The offending expressions contained in the Koran and quoted above are not so offensive in their translation in which they are so quoted as they are in the original verses in Arabic or in Urdu, the very sound of whose inimitable symphony not only sends the Muslims to tears and ecstasy but arouses in them the worst communal passions and religious fanaticism which have manifested themselves in murder, slaughter, loot, arson, rape and destruction or desecration of holy places in historical times as also in contemporary period not only in India but almost all over the world.
