The “Abu Dhabi Declaration” that the Pope and El-Tayyeb signed states: “Freedom is a right of every person: each individual enjoys the freedom of belief, thought, expression and action.”
But El-Tayyeb didn’t really mean it. Now, what a surprise! Who saw that coming!
In reality, anyone who knows that Islamic law mandates death for blasphemy could have and should have seen it coming. But that excludes the willfully blind.
“Leave them; they are blind guides. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.” (Matthew 15:14)
“Al-Azhar will internationally sue those insulting Prophet, grand imam tells French FM,” Ahram Online, November 8, 2020:
The Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, the world’s leading Sunni Islamic institution, Ahmed El-Tayyeb expressed categorical rejection of the act of insulting Prophet Muhammad and vowed to sue perpetrators at international courts, Al-Azhar said in a statement.
His remarks came in a Sunday meeting with French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian, who is visiting Egypt to help de-escalate tensions that followed France’s President Emmanuel Macron’s comments on Islam.
Macron defended the right to draw cartoons on Prophet Muhammad, saying that France would not renounce the cartoons. Also, several campaigns were launched in the Islamic world, mainly on social media, calling for the boycott of French products as a response.
If you consider insulting our prophet -peace be upon him- freedom of speech, we categorically reject it, the statement read.
“I am the first to protest freedom of speech when this freedom offends any religion, not only Islam,” the grand imam said….
Wellington says
Proving again that Islam and freedom are incompatible.
Also, international courts are a joke, for instance the International Court of Justice located in The Hague and which is part of the UN, which itself is a joke.
Well, rather fitting, no? The joke of a religion which is Islam will take its case to a joke of a court. Oh yeah, clowns all around and how can I not mention Stealers Wheel, to wit, “Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right….”
mortimer says
Yes, ‘incompatible’.
“The right to free speech and the unrealistic expectation to never be offended are incompatible.”
– Irving Weisdorf
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
Agree.
By the way, the lead singer on that song, Gerry Rafferty, was the best singer-songwriter to ever come out of Scotland…
Wellington says
Didn’t know that, James. Thank you. Learning is a never ending process—or should be.
Westman says
Now I can’t get that song out of my mind!
The song does remind remind me of a word that is always missing in Islamic demands – Please.
Charlie in NY says
When they attack Jews and Judaism, it’s somehow just political comment about Israel. So convenient.
Templer says
We must put a stop to these desert rats Mohamed was a pedophile war moger and a apostles off satin if Islam is so good so perfect it would be up for critzim but it’s evil and uropte and not up for critazim Islam is evil it brings nothing but war and haterd were ever it lays it’s ugly santic head and to thinck this evil will overtack chirstaintey by 2050
Frank Anderson says
If a suit were brought in a state court in the US, many have adopted a Uniform Litigation Accountability Act, which makes a plaintiff who files a groundless lawsuit pay the defendant’s expenses in addition to Rule 11 sanctions. If the International Court rendered a judgement, which was then brought to the states to enforce, it could be fun to watch and expensive for the plaintiff and the lawyer representing it.
Wellington says
Proving again that Islam and freedom are incompatible.
Also, international courts are a joke, for instance the International Court of Justice located in The Hague and which court is part of the UN, which itself overall is a joke.

Wellington says
Sorry for the double post. Didn’t think the first one went through.
mortimer says
Good thoughts bear repeating.
Wellington says
Thanks for that, mortimer.
Dude says
Anyone who writes or speaks the truth about Islam, insults Islam.
These guys know the truth. They are just playing us.
Throw them in a cage and throw away the key. The desert will work.
John says
What a relief, but he’s bordering on apostasy. Mo said the penalty for insulting Islam or Mo himself was death.
SKA says
Also taking a matter of fiqh to be adjudicated by “uncircumcised infidel dogs” is objectionable. Shouldn’t the fatwa proceed from an Islamic court?
Of course we know the game they are playing, a stealth infiltration of our institutions which they then turn against us.
John says
Make infidels defend themselves with personal finances, while they’re financed by the Gulf States rolling in $$$. Part of their stealth jihad.
gravenimage says
True, SKA.
James Lincoln says
So Ahmed El-Tayyeb “expressed categorical rejection of the act of insulting prophet muhammad.”
Since we cannot ask “mo” if he was insulted, how do we know that he was insulted?
Jaydam says
There will come a time in the not too distant future James, when ANYTHING said about Mo or Islam by a “Non Believer” will be twisted and the Muzzies greatly offended. This is what paranoid brain dead moron’s always do. They are so predictable.
Meanwhile,.. if sleepy Joe does become president in January 2021, i wonder how long it will be before his Muslim friends will be demanding that Sharia law is implemented across the U.S, and what “$ Fee $” will be accepted into his offshore bank account. #IveNeverTakenABribeJoe
somehistory says
Well, well, well. There is a big ****flaw**** here, creep. There is no “prophet” in islam; only a filthy lowlife, mass-murdering, raper of children, lying son of satan the devil. Since there is no “prophet” by that name ,or any other, in islam, one cannot “insult” your “prophet.” One cannot “insult” what does not exist.
Try using some of your lying wind to go fly a kite. No one who knows the Truth about your islam is feeling worried or stressed by your threats.
Wellington says
Just love that description of Mo, somehistory. Quite accurate.
Anyone admiring this guy should have their head examined—which would entail an almost uncountable number of heads. Alas, so much of mankind is dense and foolish, no group more so than Mo’s deluded followers.
somehistory says
Thank you very much, Wellington. Every time I type it, I get a little bit of satisfaction, knowing how much he is revered by fools.
If they weren’t so very evil, if they were just stupid, one could feel pity for them, believing such nonsense about such an evil creep. But, in their worship of him, they are just as he was.
BTW, guess we’re …all of us here…”stuck in the middle.” When the middle gets full enough, it will blow out those clowns and jokers.
Rob says
Al Azhar is on record as stating that ISIS is NOT incompatible with Sunni Islam. They (ISIS) have been the worst of rapists and butchers how can Al Azhar now seek to distance Islam from terrorism.
gravenimage says
Yep.
gravenimage says
Grand Imam of al-Azhar vows to sue those who insult Islam in international courts
……………….
They want the Infidels to enforce Shari’ah law. Too many Infidels are happy to comply…
Andrew says
Methinks I will file a Law Suit against this iman for hurting my feeeeelings after all he has called me an infidel,when in fact I believe in a god, just not the one he believes in, he has hurt my wee feelings because he called me an islamopbobe, though I rather welcome that title, but it hurts my wee feelings by the way he says it, he has told me I am of the devil, though he kinda looks like that guy himself, he told me how wrong I am about… well… everything… and that really hurts my feelings because what he has to say about me and my belief are just sooooo very important to me that I… I need to run off now and find a safe space so I can have a good old cry… He says nasty things about me… Im going to tell my mummy about this pedophile.
somehistory says
All those whom he has “insulted” and “hurt” should file a class-action against him. We know his name and residence. He’d have a difficult time filing against everyone whose names he never heard and who live all over the planet.
I’d tell my mummy too, but she’s been asleep since about ten years ago.I’ll just tell my Lord and my Father, my God. They never sleep.
Yogi says
He can go to hell !!, I daycare , take this savages out from Europe period , problem solved , those not people those sick animals…
Yogi says
I don’t care , correction
Frank Anderson says
An interesting thing happens when a blowhard, lying fool sues in court. He submits to the jurisdiction of the court for all purposes, including being sued by a counterclaim. The defense would have the opportunity to expose the truth and utterly destroy the plaintiff along with his sham case, and discredit and disbar any lawyer stupid enough to file it. Go for it chief!
Mustapha crap says
It’s like this your honour, the nasty man said mean things about a man I like who is a child raping murderous degenerate suffering from a superiority complex and his imaginary friend, please make them stop
gravenimage says
That sums it up, all right…
Goofy says
The grand but maybe not so great Imam has brought up the subject of international courts in the context of interreligious relations. I don’t think that is in the spirit of brotherhood.
Anyway why don’t we now take the initiative to take him and his prophet and his Koran to court and have a ruling on each and every verse of the Koran which is in breach of the Human Rights Convention as well as the Convention on War Crimes along with the criminal codes of civilised countries?
Frank Anderson says
Goofy, a good idea, but I think there may be problems. A declaratory judgment action is the approach in US courts. The problem starts with showing the plaintiff has standing to prosecute the case; and then showing that a defendant is properly served and involved.
The advantage of letting the grand poobah file the suit is that he admits full presence and jurisdiction of the court and his total submission to its authority and orders. THEN comes the defenses. If he is stupid enough to ignore islam’s total disdain for human law and courts, he has entered Uncle Remus’s briar patch. His threat to invoke human courts is as hollow are the rest of the “final, perfect, complete and unchangable” teachings.
george says
We have tried to ignore them but they just will not go away
Frank Anderson says
George, for 1400 years and between 250 million and 1000 million dead people, count increasing every day? That is some awfully heavy ignoring?
Tom Donohue says
The total is 965 million and counting
Frank Anderson says
T.D. I have no reason to disagree with your number. Other people have their estimates, which I equally acknowledge that I don’t know to be either correct or not. Running the number, which my engineering and accounting minds “must” do, shows that between 1 and 4 people have DIED every 3 minutes for 1400 years by islam. “Religion of Peace” my ??? Why has George Bush never made any correction of that lie? It’s one thing to speak in error. But to speak in error and then allow that statement to continue uncorrected for 19 years is appalling.
notnolib says
So…..would that include, while not an insult, just “pointing out” things about their pedophile false prophet, mohammed the pig-faced dog?
SJ says
Global Imperialist ambitions, huh?
OLD GUY says
Just another Grand idiot shooting off his loud mouth wanting freedom of speech restricted against Islam. Islam cannot stand up to scrutiny so it must use a DICTATORSHIP style of control, intimidation and violence.
Henry Schalk says
El-Tayyeb will sue us, but really he’d rather see our heads cut off.
This Pope is an embarrassment,
