He cited “limitation of hijab (Islamic Dress Code), burning the Holy Quran, insulting religious symbol in some countries under the shadow of inaction of some governments.”
If the UN moves to criminalize the insulting of religious symbols or even the burning of the Qur’an,. this will establish Muslims as a protected class, beyond criticism, and destroy the freedom of expression that is essential for free societies.
“Iran warns of growing trend of Islamophobia in world,” Mehr News Agency, June 21, 2022:
TEHRAN, Jun. 21 (MNA) – Iran’s Permanent Ambassador to United Nations warned of growing trend of Islamophobia in world and called spread of insults to people based on religious beliefs as a key challenge to promote peaceful coexistence among nations.
Speaking in a meeting of the General Assembly of the United Nations on Monday in order to mark International Day for Countering Hate Speech, Iran UN envoy said that spread of hatred, discrimination and violence has caused great suffering to Muslim communities in various countries.
Iran senior diplomat added that this trend has led to the occurrence of political measures such as limitation of hijab (Islamic Dress Code), burning the Holy Quran, insulting religious symbol in some countries under the shadow of inaction of some governments in confrontation with actions of anti-Islamic groups and its promotion by anti-Islamic media….
Pray Hard says
I’ll admit that I do have an ongoing case of islamonausea.
Wellington says
I would argue that the real threat to humanity, and especially to the West, is Islamophilia. So many times the “conventional wisdom” is the exact opposite of where the truth actually resides.
Another example: In the 1970’s just about the biggest environmental scare was “global cooling.” Newsweek in 1975 published a cover article about this and documentaries were made (one narrated by Leonard Nimoy in 1978) about how mankind was facing a quickly cooling world which would wreak havoc upon humanity by the year 2000.
For now, I rest my case. But I’ll be back.

It’s strange that ‘islamophobia’ increases as awareness of, and contact with, islam increases; which means that the negative attitudes are increasing along with increasing direct experience of islam, suggesting that they’re hardly ‘irrational fears’ but informed judgements based on increasing first-hand knowledge of islam and its adherents. Since we’re clearly talking about ‘informed opinions’, this hardly qualifies them as ‘phobias’, so here we have yet again more pathetically spurious propaganda from the ‘Religion of Peace’ as it tries to promote itself against the rising tide of general awareness of this Dark Age curse on humanity. But they won’t give up since the myopic bigoted ignorance that this ‘faith’ engenders in its followers will continue to blunt their sensibilities to anything and everything beyond the limits of the bloated, entitled egos bequeathed to them by the hideous projection of their perverted ‘Prophet’s’ twisted persona otherwise known as ‘Allah’.

Here’s an easy fix to the problem. How about you all return to live in the Islamic country you sprung from, then there would be no “islamophobia” to complain about.
Alfredo says
Easier said than done. This is due to the fact that the adherents of the religion of peace pretend they’re peaceful while engaging in jihad against the infidels.
Everything Saracens claim, the exact opposite is true.
The religion of peace, but they wage relentless jihad.
They claim it is the most feminist religion and their “prophet” a feminist. But the opposite is true, it is the most mysogynist.
They claim it is the religion of truth. But their holey book is full of lies. Lies of the most depraved nature.
This cult to an Arabian self appointed prophet is a total inversion and therefore anathema to Western blues.
And finally “Islamophobia” is a neologism and an oxymoron fabricated by the Muslim Brotherhood.
It is designed to silence any legitimate critical debate and assesment of it true intentions.
The reason for the drive to silence critical debate is because the purveyors and apologists know that it does not and cannot stand to a critical evaluation.
To conclude, the so called religion of peace is a supremacist ideology totally intolerant of any honest criticism.
Precisely because its aim is a global caliphate to the glory of a supreme god called Allah the Merciful…

Since the Islamic birth rate is five times that of any other race there isn’t one country in the world big enough to hold them. Their warning to the migrating Jews to Israel in 1945 was–“We will outbreed you and then we will outvote you. Germany is paying the price for Angela’s generosity. Germany is to be an Islamic State in twenty years followed by Britain. . Hows that for a European Union !
Michael says
Peter Oborne’s book ‘The Fate of Abraham’, castigates the infidel (that’s me) and exculpates the faithful.
Muslim friends and colleagues in N Africa,, were very decent people, but
We ( Bush, Blair etc), have created millions of blood enemies. It is rational to fear them, their uppity culture and their birth rate.
OLD GUY says
Gee I wonder why. Could it be that the WORLD is beginning to wake up to the evils of ISLAM and its sick leaders. Islamophobia the telling of the truth about ISLAM. Spread the word loud and clear across the globe Islam is violent, slavery and deadly to all who oppose it or are considered not worthy of life by islamic members. Islam makes HITLER look like a Boy Scout.
PMK says
OLD GUY,
I doubt the world is waking up to the evils of Islam. That would require them to take a stand against it and no one wants to. Live and let live is their ideal. What they refuse to accept is that the Muslim ideal is more one of live and let die. Only the Jews can clearly understand the evil that is Islam. We don’t see many of these stories in our own media because they have been bought off. If it happened today, 9/11 would be a case of ‘some people did something’.
PMK says
Burning of the Quran would seem to be the most respectful thing a non-Muslim can do. If we really wanted to show ‘disrespect’ toward Islam, we would tear the book into pieces and drop the paper outside a mosque.
