| Punjab pol: 'I'd kill blasphemer' |
| 2007-06-22 |
| Punjab Assembly speaker Chaudhry Afzal Sahi Thursday declared that according to Islam a blasphemer should be killed and if any blasphemer would come in front of him he would definitely kill him. He said the issue of awarding the title of ‘Sir’ to blasphemer Salman Rushdie was a religious issue. Being a Muslim, he said, he was not ready to compromise on the issue. “I am not a religious scholar, but I want to make it clear that a blasphemer was liable to kill,” the speaker said. “First, I am a Muslim and later the Punjab Assembly speaker.” |

| #4 It is a part of my newly rediscovered religion of being a free Englishman that pirate scum making death-threats should be killed. Add this one to the list. |

| #1 Punjab Assembly speaker Chaudhry Afzal Sahi [speaking for the moderate Muslims everywhere] Thursday declared that according to Islam a blasphemer should be killed and if any blasphemer would come in front of him he would definitely kill him. More proof that the only good Muslims are ex-Muslims. |
