Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Sharia Spain: Prosecutor recommends 3 1/2 years prison for man who criticized Islam on Facebook

Nov 29, 2019 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

“The accused, identifying himself by name, posted on his Facebook account messages ‘in which he promoted the animosity, rejection, exclusion, aggression and confrontation against Muslim people, as well as against people of foreign origin, black and gypsy ethnicity.'”

This story fastidiously avoids giving any examples, so we can’t evaluate what was actually said. Since all too often honest analysis of the motivating ideology behind jihad terror is falsely characterized as promoting “animosity, rejection, exclusion, aggression and confrontation against Muslim people,” this could be essentially an imposition of Sharia in Spain. Once a group is beyond criticism, that group is a protected class in society, with a free hand to do what it wishes, however unjust. This kind of ruling is leading to Muslims becoming that protected class in Spain.

“Man faces 3.5 years in prison for posting messages against Islam on Facebook,” translated from “Un home s’enfronta a 3,5 anys de presó per publicar missatges contra l’islam en Facebook,” À Punt, November 28, 2019 (thanks to B.):

The prosecutor has requested three and a half years in prison for a hate crime for a man who posted messages about Islam and Muslim people on Facebook.

The Penal Code provides for a prison sentence of one to four years for those who publicly promote discrimination or violence against a group of people for ideological or religious reasons.

This is precisely what the prosecutor considers that the accused did…

The accused, identifying himself by name, posted on his Facebook account messages “in which he promoted the animosity, rejection, exclusion, aggression and confrontation against Muslim people, as well as against people of foreign origin, black and gypsy ethnicity.”

The messages, which were published between September 2, 2015 and December 4, 2017, should be withdrawn, the prosecutor adds in his provisional conclusions.

    Moral of the story: when you are posting on a social media provided by Communist agitators and activists, who work hand in hand with the jihadist muslims, you should not post stuff under your own name!

    The Spanish have forgotten their history. They need a modern El Cid to arise and purge the country.

      El Cid would get 3.5 years in prison before he could ever get started.

      Sadly, the real El Cid often fought with Muslims.

    This sounds the death knell of Free Speech in Spain. This may spread over the Pyrenees & infect the rest of the Continent & even cross the Channel to the UK! The guy ought to take the judge to the European Court of Human Rights. The lawyers on both sides will love it, but the ones supporting this judge will lose out in the end. Simple Common Sense. But, Common Sense is sadly lacking on this Muslim issue & will not surface for quite some time. .

      I do not think the Court of Human Rights will find against the ruling in this case, judging by their decision in the case of Elisabeth Sabaditch Wolf (Austrian lady) who was fined or sentenced to prison for saying Mohammed was a paedophile.

        Der Anne, Unfortunately I have to agree with you. The echelons of European Society & Justice are simply allowing themselves to be eroded away in their pandering to this Fascist Ideology & aiding the spread of this dystopia. It would seem strange that a Muslim could stand up anywhere in Spain/elsewhere & spout of the Koran calling for the murder, rape, enslavement of non-Muslims & be hailed as a moral philosopher! There is a sh*tstorm brewing & these Western Leaders will be swept away along with the feral, rabid Muslim scum!

    Sharia Spain: Prosecutor recommends 3 1/2 years prison for man who criticized Islam on Facebook

    We’re almost as bad here in the states too. In America criticizing islam can cost you your job, your online accounts, your political chances, and your standing in the community. When it comes to islam it’s almost as if we don’t really have a 1st Amendment. In my own state people have been fired for their views on islam, like Republican Party chairman, Jack Whitley, whose FB posts got him canned. I’ve read his comments, they pale in comparison to what I’ve said, though I’ve toned down over the years. And then there was Grant Nichols, school board member in Columbia Heights. He was pressured to quit after he allegedly said, “Muslims are unsanitary and do not clean up after themselves.” And it should be mentioned that he denied even posting it, stating that his “cellphone was hacked.” (Both quotes from Star&Trib) Of course that caused a frenzy of protests with CAIR’s help, with frightened officials weeping their praise and support for muslims in Minnesota. Our Governor Dayton at the time said, If you “Don’t like immigrants, get out of Minnesota!” Well it’s not that I don’t like “immigrants” governor, it’s that I don’t like the violent creed and alien culture they bring with them. It didn’t matter that what Nichols is alleged to have said was probably true, he was talking about muslims so he had to go. In my day if a school official had said we students were unsanitary then we better improve our we’d be in trouble, like suspended. But muslims own us wherever they live.

    And it’s the same throughout our nation, where more and more of us are getting blasted one way or another for exercising our 1st Amendment rights concerning islam or muslims. Muslims can have a creed that says slay the idolators and unbelievers, but we can’t say “that sucks” without risking everything. We might look at Europe and think, “Whew! I’m glad we’re not oppressive like those dhimmis!” but the realilty is, we practically are. Muslims are destroying our quest for freedom and tolerance by being offended over our freedom and tolerance. And they will continue to do this until their bigoted religion becomes the dominate force over our thoughts, our freedoms, and our safety.

      Good post…and true. Glad I don’t live in Spain. I’ve said things, concerning islam, that would get me a life sentence…even though what I said is true.

      As a Limey, that’s one of the best Yank posts I’ve seen in years. I say that sincerely. Please learn from the idiotic mistakes our Globalist leaders in Europe have made, constantly.

        We’ve got Trump, he seems to be our best hope. And we got good folks like Spencer and Geller and David Wood educating too. We don’t have a very big army, but we got some good generals.

      The deference paid to the One Stooge AKA the Grinch & his poxy sex-‘n’-death KKKult shows that societies are being Mahometanised. Without their approval being sought.

      Liberalism denatures and guts societies, turning them into hordes of freaks, perverts and sissies. Then Mahometanism sweeps in, and replaces what has been destroyed with itself.

    Such awful fuss and desire of some Muslim to have a man, who live in the nation of Spain, to be sent to prison because he criticized Islam on Facebook is actually proof that 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 like a “deck of cards”

    Moreover this punishment for criticism of is in accord to Sharia law. Therefore it should be known that the actual origin of Sharia law is revealed in a Time –Life book with the title MESOPOTAMIA: THE MIGHTY KINGS copyright 1995. The point is this history book about the ancient pagan world of Mesopotamia informs the reader that “many Islamic laws resemble the Babylon and Assyrian forebears.” .page 150.

    There is the above and other references imply that such pagan teachings were incorporated into the religion that Muhammad manufactured and then started.

    Thus this further reveals that a lot of ancient paganism is part of the whole religion of Islam.

    In other words, ancient paganism makes up much of Islam. Therefore Islam is a hoax.

    Oh, wait. It is Spain.

    If there wasn’t a death sentence for leaving islam…I doubt if that cult would be around today. The camel, at least in Spain, has much more than it’s nose in the tent.

    Poor Spain, they don’t learn still from their past history. Soon it will become a muslim country, they have missed their values, almost their faith, their identity and their will for fighting against intruders.

    WOW too bad the judge won’t prosecute the same criticism of JEWS and CHRISTIANS. Freedom of speech is gone in Spain and any other country that won’t allow criticism of anything. LOOKOUT here comes SHARIA LAW!
