Three Muslims Jailed For Inciting Murder In London Cartoon Protests
Three men were jailed for six years each Wednesday for inciting murder during protests by Muslims angered by Danish cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed.
Mizanur Rahman, 24, Umran Javed, 27 and Abdul Muhid, 25 had already been convicted at the Old Bailey after taking part in protests outside the Danish embassy in February last year.
A fourth man, 32-year-old Abdul Saleem, was jailed for four years after being cleared of soliciting murder at his trial but convicted of inciting race hate.
London was the scene of a string of large protests after some European newspapers, led by Jyllands-Posten in Denmark in September 2005, printed cartoons satirising the Prophet Mohammed.

Is that all the time they got? These clowns will be back on the street in a couple of years and this time they’ll carry out their threats. Old Bailey is an old all right. Get a new name. How about Justice?

I have a buddy in Copenhagen. He’s a big ol’ Viking-looking fella. He says “fuck em”
6 years seems a bit easy for inciting riots/murder/property destruction. Good thing Clinton isn’t in office, he’d be stepping in to reduce it to 6 months. Just like he interfered with the little American vandal in Singapore. They should give these guys Islamic Justice like in Saudi. Crime on Wednesday, Court on Thursday, Execution on Friday. Just a thought.
New thought…
All of these people in the world immigrate to different countries looking for something better than what they have. Problem is, they want to change the country into exactly what they left. I say move your ass back to the Middle East if you don’t like the Danish Press. If I incited murder everytime someone pissed me off, there would be alot of bodies laying around. Hell, I’d be dead myself. This one-way freedom of speech has got to change. I’m 35, white, male,heterosexual,middle-class, christian, German, Irish,college-educated, Republican. I do not fit in ANY category for affirmative action legistlation. I could care less about any jokes, comments, or statements you make about my demographics. But you better be prepared to be as equally thick-skinned.

July 18th, 2007 at 5:17 amHipocracy. Love the toon. It speaks volumes
It is beyond me how the double standards are allowed to go unchallenged on a regular basis in every arena. I believe it is the result mostly of the leftist lack of desire for standards and principle.
Outrage in so far off balance
Moral equivalence is abused
What is good for one is not valid for another… etc.
It is good to see these radicals got called on their crap — in Europe of all places. There is hope. It’s just too bad it takes so much effort with such small result.

Good post. Like you, I don’t see any reason these assholes should be kept alive, spreading their venom and bullshit throughout the British prison system.
July 18th, 2007 at 6:29 amthis is good news! jailed for incitement. A group in the USA that is doing just that is the Islamic thinkers (oxymoron)society. 1 member put out a video gloating over the murder of richard perl in pakistan. His name is Yousef al-khattab he has a web page with picture of him friends and family. his phone number is 347-223-5822.
those in the area feel free to call him.
these guys go in front of the jewish embassy and shout allahu akbar and other nasty things. for those of you who dont know allahu akbar is the calling card of terrorrists who say it before and after a murder, this phrase should be deemed hate speech and incitement and dealt with accordingly.
July 18th, 2007 at 6:42 amJust when you think that the hypocrisy couldn’t get any worse, CAIR is in a tizzy over the poster boy for Jihad “Islamic Rage Boy” is being exploited.
CAIR proclaims it is another attempt to paint Muslims in a negative light:

Now the CAIR whining:

July 18th, 2007 at 8:45 amOK, CAIR is a Islamic radical front group, which has financially supported terrorist groups like Hamas. They are named as “un-indicted co-conspirators” in case filed by feds involving funding of Hamas by US groups.

Good point. The CAIR misREPRESENTATIVE did a nice job of skirting the question,”where are the non-violent muslims who should be policing their own?”
CAIR and the dummacrats have two things in common:
1. “we are victims”
2. The fault lies with anyone but themselves. They can’t make a decision or have a belief and stand behind it.
Religion and Politics do not mix. Hence, the seperation of church and state.
CAIR, Black Panthers and KKK all fall in the same category.

“Religion and Politics do not mix. Hence, the seperation of church and state.”
Nope. They mixed fine in 1776. Matter fact, it mixed so well, that religion is enshrined in our Constitution. To wit:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness….
Deists, my ass.
Our rights come not from some King, Judge, ACLU lawyer or from the State, they come from God. Hmm…now there’s an un-pc reactionary thought?
No. Politics and religion mixed just fine back in the days when “E Pluribus Unum” meant something and Zinnian philosophy would have been considered sedition.
Other than that, your views on CAIR-less are right on.
July 18th, 2007 at 9:59 amHey Frenchy, If it was a muslim coutry, the cartoonist would be beheaded for western tilth. Don’t we teach my two dad’s in school, and and other liberal garbage. Forced to watch Al gore’s crap?
July 18th, 2007 at 1:23 pmDeists are not so bad. They believe in God but just that he doesn’t control every single aspect of life, and they did not ascribe too heavily to organized religion. Honestly I would have to put myself in this group if I am totally honest. I pray, I believe God can do anything, I believe in fate, but I don’t beleive God takes the time to decide if my car gets knicked or not. And I think many ppl are loyal to the church too much. Here is my allegiance: God, Family, Country, Race, Religion

My point was that politics and religion mix just fine. And if every American were like the Americans that founded this country and settled this country…my point would be moot.
“E Pluribus Unum” might be our national motto. But that is all it is anymore. We are a house divided.
July 18th, 2007 at 5:10 pmif anything has convinced me that religion and state should not be mixed it is Islam. My only contention in a pluralistic society, even though dan is correct in saying it was founded by christians , on christian principles with an appeal to God for our rights, is that when you put church hierarchical structure in charge of domestic affairs as well, they have a tendency to infringe on the rights of those who dont share their faith. On the other hand, this doesnt give more rights to atheists to nit pick and exclude religious people from the the same rights as others as happens with the ACLU and cair etc. It is a delicate balance.
the problem with Islam, politically, is the religion deems itself superior to all else and has laws in place that discriminate against other religions , which is not consonant with the principles of a liberal democracy.
God is good, but people arent always. If God wants to govern ourlives by force , lets let him do it himself, afterall,he is all powerful, he doesnt need us!
July 19th, 2007 at 4:04 amIslamic justice in S. Arabia is even swifter than you’d think. Crime on Wednesday; trial and execution on Thursday (Friday is a their holy day, no executions then). A hand for a first offense, a head for a second. It is worth noting that petty crime in Saudi is virtually non-existent. I don’t mention that in praise of their system of “justice” but to say that Islamic notions of peace-keeping can be as swift as they are final.
