Official Muslim Representatives Will Visit German Newspaper Offices to Demand Respect
|
 This is form a German language article covering the official Islamkonferenz, a dialogue forum attended by the German government and Muslim organizations' representatives.
The bombshell is near the end of the article.
Muslim representatives Erol PĂźrlĂź (Sunni, indirectly Central Council/Muslim Brotherhood) and Bekir Alboga (Sunni, de facto a representative of the Turkish government) are talking to journalists directly. Their remarks are not official statements made during the conference.
They start with complaining about the cartoons, denouncing any depiction of Mohammed and especially negative depictions. Then they announce their plans to systematically intimidate the German press: (corrected Google translation)
Both wish for more respect and sensitivity shown by the cartoons, also from Charlie Hebdo. "I treat other religions respectfully"
by calling them apes and pigs
says PĂźrlĂź. "Dignitaries need not be drawn through the mud."
But they can be drawn through the mud by free people who believe that these 'dignitaries' are actually less than dignified. Welcome to Western Civilization!
This is why Muslim representatives will visit newspaper offices during the next couple of days to urge them to respect religious feelings, he announced.
"And ve haff vays to make the urge especially urgent!" he added.
They are supported by the Greens in the Bundestag: "Not everything that is protected by freedom of opinion and freedom of the press needs to be said and written," said the spokesman for religious affairs for the Group, Volker Beck. "This is the responsibility that always goes hand in hand with freedom."
Dhimmitude does not go hand in hand with freedom, Volker!
However, respect and consideration should determine the red line, not fear of terrorism, he said. "No one needs to tolerate insult and incitement."
Anyone living in an open society must tolerate subjectively perceived 'insult and incitement!' This is the very foundation of the free marketplace of ideas!
All snarking aside, this is a sign of a catastrophic development.
These nominally mainstream, nominally moderate Muslims of nominally good reputation dare to openly threaten the press with (hopefully) mock reenactments of the Charlie Hebdo massacre while they're attending a dialogue forum with German government ministers.
But why should they fear anything when Merkel has officially sided with the Muslim Brotherhood.
