Pakistan: Muslim leader slams Prime Minister as pro-West, says “if blasphemy laws are softened things will go bad”

Nov 11, 2019 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

An empire of fear, enforced only through intimidation.

“JUI-F leader slams Imran over ‘pro-West stance,’” by Kalbe Ali, Dawn, November 10, 2019:

ISLAMABAD: Jamiat Ulema-Islam (Fazl) secretary general Senator Abdul Ghafoor Haideri has alleged that the apex court released Aasia Bibi — a Christian woman who spent eight years on death row after being convicted of having committed blasphemy before she was finally acquitted and released by the Supreme Court — due to pressure from the West and that the Western powers had conspired to bring Imran khan to power to “soften the blasphemy laws”. Senator Haideri said that the people had lost confidence in the judicial system which was struggling to improve its tarnished image.

Speaking at his party’s ‘Azadi march’ sit-in, Mr Haideri reiterated the warning that soon there would be a complete lockdown of the country if the government did not resign.

“Azadi March is a movement and it will spread all over the country. We will block highways, we will block motorways and we will lock down the entire country if you [Prime Minister Imran Khan) do not leave the government,” he said without specifying any schedule for the lockdown….

Senator Haidari recalled that Aasia Bibi was convicted of committing blasphemy by the trial court as well as by the Lahore High Court.

“At this the West felt that things [in Pakistan] were not right according to their views so they started to conspire and pressurised the courts. Eventually they waited till Imran Khan came to power and then the pressure on courts worked as planned,” the JUI-F leader said. “Finally Aasia Bibi was released and hurriedly sent abroad.”

Mr Haideri said the government was only trying to appease the West and they were in power only to do whatever the Western powers wanted.

“But they will never succeed because the people of Pakistan are aware of these conspiracies,” Senator Haideri said.

Then he started telling the crowd about his efforts to block the amendments to blasphemy laws and his arguments with Senate Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani on the amendments that would award the same punishment to the accuser if he / she were not able to prove blasphemy charges on the accused.

“The worst part is that people can hire witnesses in all kind of cases for even as low as Rs500 per hearing and if blasphemy laws are softened things will go bad,” he said, adding that eventually the amendment was withdrawn by the government.

Other speakers belonging to the seminaries declared JUI-F chief Maulana Fazalur Rehman the next leader of the country equating him with Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan and Malaysian leader Mahathir Muhammad….

    It is always somehow very reassuring to see the Muslims fighting once again amongst themselvesr as to who is the purest Muslim.

      Good point: they are playing the game called ‘More-Muslim-than-thou’. The only cure from fanatical Islamism appears to be a bloody internecine conflict among Muslims.

      Pornistan… I mean ‘Pakistan’ is second only to Afghastlistan in fanaticism. They top the Muslim world in fanaticism.

      Nevertheless, Pak-men are number one in online searches in almost every form of fantasy porn involving children and animals.

      How much Islamic fanaticism can they take after years of the Taliban and then ISIS? Don’t they realize that those two organizations are meticulously ‘pure’ Islam.

      Do they actually want to return to Taliban and ISIS? Their countries will again be awash in the blood of Muslims playing ‘More-Muslim-than-thou’.

        The more Muslims that die from , for a better recombination, “self inflicted death” the better the world would be…Fighting against themselves Will remove some…but they multiply like rats do it probably won’t do much to eradicate Islam…..
        Why the same world has allowed muslim/islam incursion is a mystery and why GOD has allowed it to continue is also a mystery. Of course we know that this is “Satan’s world”….FOR A TIME.

        I *wish* that Muslims raping children and animals were just fantasy–unfortunately, both are all too common.

        You are right that Pakistan tops the list for global searches for porn–especially the really sick stuff like pedophilia and bestiality.

      I always picture the step-mother in ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarves’ standing in front of the mirror, in her black hijab, and asking:

      Mirror, mirror, on the wall
      Who’s the most Islamic of us all?

    Pakistan: Muslim leader slams Prime Minister as pro-West, says “if blasphemy laws are softened things will go bad”
    ……………

    Actually, Khan regularly threatens India and the West–but it is never enough for the most pious Muslims.

    And note what this Muslim thug considers bad–not imprisoning and murdering vulnerable Infidel women.

    God, I hate Islam.

      Things will go bad in Pakistan? How much worse can it be?

    Things will go bad?

    Islam is the king of things going bad over the longest period of time in man’s history.

    No contest. Not even close.

    • gravenimage says

      So true, Carolyne and Wellington. Things are about as bad in Pakistan as they can get.

    Senator Abdul Adhiri needs to stop insulting Islam, and stop blaspheming Islam.

    As a senator, shouldn’t Adhiri be supporting Pakistan citizen’s right to free speech?

    • gravenimage says

      Nov 12, 2019 at 10:15 pm

      Battle, calling for the crushing of freedom of speech is not “blaspheming Islam”–this was a core part of Islam, from the very beginning.

    Nov 11, 2019 at 5:49 pm

    This just further reveals that the only reason the Muslims nations, as Pakistan have such an absurd thing as “blasphemy laws” enacted, in the first place, is because Islam is actually such a weak and fragile religion that is can’t hold up or stand up to criticism of any kind, no matter how mild that criticism might be.

    In the light of criticism based on either the Bible or reason Islam will collapse, this there is a need for “blasphemy laws” in Islamic countries.

      Same goes for apostasy laws – if Muslims are allowed to leave Islam without any consequences then Islam would quickly collapse.

        Islam would have much less power if the western leaders had been able to get a clear view of the doctrine, without an imam at their ear denying the words, or a muslim brother operative appearing professional to enforce the lie, or showing outrage if one were to contradict the peaceful description. such as jihad, the Palestinian issue, victimhood status and false claims of occupation, their claim from the Jews, even though Jews across the middle east were victims. since that is never suggested that they could read the Quran and properly understand it. We know here the Quran it is a book with arabic, but on the same page is also a book with translations, published in all the languages of the world, it is in English and easy to grasp that it has a goal of domination and a plan to decieve with flowerly nuetral sounding language and with direct commands for fighting all who are not beleivers and to get a converson or kill them or spare them with a demand for money or taxation. It has a strange effect on the mind as they appear so calm and peaceful and are perfected in omission for deceit for all unfamliar, but never showing a hint of nervousness, while expressing they are the best of all people as if always harmless to others…which is the biggest lie. But the fashion world thought the draping were a spiritual desire, mystical to make a woman pure, instead of prevention of rape, not given to the uncovered. This article shows how it is done, lies, threats of shutting down streets. this could not happen without the first migration of muslims to other lands and on command start the chaos and threats within a country not yet allowing the muslim leaders to take control. And if the do not riot, they worry about being killed for apostasy, or being a hprocrite….and on it goes until they have control. Once inside the borders, they grow. by immigration and mosque indoctrination….it may take years but it is relentless unless leaders uncover the deceit. It may not sound pretty, but the pretty words are a mindbending cover.

      Yes, and every time Asia Bibi is mentioned, her question should be repeated… the one that put her on death row for “blasphemy” in the country of mentally fragile cowards:

      I BELIEVE IN CHRIST WHO DIED FOR OUR SINS. WHAT HAS MOHAMMAD EVER DONE FOR YOUR SAKE?

      This genius question has no tolerable answer, so the whole village beat her and tried to force her to convert! But she refused.

    Can we build a really high wall around Pakistan and repatriate Muslims there with a big catapult?

  8. John says

    Nov 12, 2019 at 3:20 am

    The senator understands perfectly well that if the blasphemy laws go in Pakistan then Islam will have a bad time as information about the war-lord Mohammad, the mistakes and contradictions in the Quran will cause at least some Muslims to doubt Islam. And within a short time “some” will turn into “many”.

  9. Telh says

    Nov 12, 2019 at 5:59 am

    ‘If blasphemy laws are ‘softened’ things will go bad’.Yep – really bad. Islam cannot stand on its own merits.

    Imran was certainly kowtowing to the Royals who visited Pakistan a few weeks ago so that would reinforce the imans view of him as being too Westernised.The blasphemy laws which robbed poor Asia Bibi of eight years of her life certainly need changing but you can bet they never will be.

    Except that those 2 leaders recently made a joint announcement w/ Imran Khan, whom they seem to have endorsed.

    Also, why are these Jihadist leaders pissed that Asia is no longer in Pakistan?
