Insult Islam, Get Sued

As I mentioned here at IBA last week, the OIC is taking a stand against freedom of speech--for the West. Apparently our own United States government is supporting the proposal.

Consider the following information from the Center for Vigilant Freedom, and be sure to follow the links:
Sada Cumber, Special Envoy to Enforce Sharia Law in the U.S.

Sada Cumber is the Bush-appointed Special Envoy to the abysmal Organization of the Islamic Conference. The Sada Cumber Watch blog is tracking the OIC, where a meeting this week (March 13 and 14) will vote on the OIC Ten Year Plan. Read more here:
H/T Sada Cumber Watch

The OIC supports the appalling Cairo Declaration of Human Rights (meaning imposition of Sharia Law in violation of all human rights), and the Ten Year Plan Sada Cumber will be agreeing to this week proposes that all countries must protect Muslim minorities’ rights based on the Cairo Declaration definition of those rights.

The Ten Year Plan also proposes “deterrent punishments” for Islamophobia
Now, read the following from Sada Cumber Watch, quoting from Examiner.com:
Muslims Nations: Defame Islam, Get Sued?
By RUKMINI CALLIMACHI, The Associated Press

The Muslim world has created a battle plan to defend its religion from political cartoonists and bigots.

Concerned about what they see as a rise in the defamation of Islam, leaders of the world’s Muslim nations are considering taking legal action against those that slight their religion or its sacred symbols. It was a key issue during a two-day summit that ended Friday in this western Africa capital.

The Muslim leaders are attempting to demand redress from nations like Denmark, which allowed the publication of cartoons portraying the Prophet Muhammad in 2006 and again last month, to the fury of the Muslim world.

[...]

Delegates were given a voluminous report by the OIC that recorded anti-Islamic speech and actions from around the world. The report concludes that Islam is under attack and that a defense must be mounted.

[...]

The report urges the creation of a “legal instrument” to crack down on defamation of Islam.

Read the entire article in the Examiner HERE. There is lots more to the story.

Considering the latest from Osama Bin Laden, one wonders if the OIC and OBL are in cahoots.

Nah. Couldn't be.

I mustn't let my paranoia kick into overdrive. Right?

That we even sent a representative to a racist organization which gave a standing ovation to a man who said jews use other to fight and die for them in their proxy wars, FOR SAYING THAT is a shame to the men and women who gave up their lives for this nation.

The OIC is an enemy of all George Bush said he stood for days after 9/11
