Tantawi calls for Muhammad cartoonist's arrest
2006-08-19
Egypt's top Islamic leader said that the Danish editor who first published the contentious Prophet Muhammad cartoons should be jailed and his newspaper banned, according to an interview published Friday. Mohammed Sayed Tantawi, the grand sheik of Al-Azhar, one of the most powerful Islamic institutions in the Sunni Muslim world, said that Muslims still haven't forgotten the cartoons, which triggered a global firestorm earlier this year, Danish daily Berlingske Tidende reported.

“the editor to prison for a number of years. And in addition to ban the paper from publication for some years.”
"This was a really big crime," Tantawi was quoted as saying. "So the punishment should be to sentence the editor to prison for a number of years. And in addition to ban the paper from publication for some years. You can use your freedom of the press to attack people like me or presidents or royals. We can defend ourselves. But Jesus and Muhammad cannot, and anyone who attacks them must be punished for what he has done."

#4  Btw... The muslim Jesus is NOT the christian Jesus! Religious savvy peopel here will tell it much better than me.

He's NOT the son of god, he submits to islam-the-original-religion-of-all-mankind, instead of being crucifixed he was replaced by a non-descript stunt double, and went on pilgrimage to mecca)... all of which by itself makes the tenets of islam a direct refutation of christianity... and when the End of Times will come, he will return *with a sword*, to "kill all the pigs", and "break all the crosses" (IE destroy christanity, jyzia will be abolished since there won't be any infidels/dhimmis left), and will *serve* the mahdi, thus nicely filling in the role of the christian false prophet along the antichrist...

He just insulted Jesus by libel. Jesus taught turning the other cheek and did not need narcissistic and aggressive action from his supporters. Muzzies never cease to see the world invertedly through their own perverted worldview.

#2  No Christian farted in front of a mosque?

No Hindu maid burned a copy of the koran?

No Jew was overheard cursing the 'profit' ?

Just recycle. The muslims need to seethe...
