Censorship on the horizon?

Visit our News page OCTOBER 30, 2012 Censorship on the horizon Alert the authorities!! A CAIR-Florida “Action Alert” states that it “has received a report that an anti-Islam book has been found in a Broward County Public School Library.” (See below). CAIR-Florida goes on to say that it has “submitted a formal complaint to the Broward County Public School System…” Here’s a newsflash to CAIR-Florida: Public school libraries contain books that are “anti” the views and beliefs of many people, not just Muslims. This is what happens in a free society where free speech is honored—unlike what happens in, say, Saudi Arabia. If CAIR-Florida truly believed in “civil rights,” it would accept the fact that our first amendment protects speech that CAIR-Florida doesn’t like. Speaking of Saudi Arabia, France 24 news recently reported that Saudi King Abdullah has demanded the UN pass a resolution condemning insults to religion. (See article excerpt below). Of course, given that you can’t publicly carry a Bible in Saudi Arabia, and that Saudi clerics regularly insult Israel and Jews, it’s safe to assume that King Abdullah’s intentions are that speech that is deemed offensive to Islam must be silenced. Pressure to silence speech that is deemed “anti-Islamic” is rising in America and around the world. Europeans have already lost the right to publicly criticize Islam. Canadians are under the same pressure. Wake up, America! http://www.cair-florida.org/sfl/ ACTION ALERT: Anti-Islam Book Found in Broward County Public School Library Asalamu Allaikum, CAIR has received a report that an anti-Islam book has been found in a Broward County Public School Library. The title of this book is "Islam and Terrorism" authored by Mark A. Gabriel a well know anti-Islam pundit that self proclaims scholarly knowledge of the Quran. This book contains dozens of xenophobic statements and inaccurate information regarding the Quran and teachings of the Prophet Mohammed. We have submitted a formal complaint to the Broward County Public School System and requested information through the Freedom of Information Act. Saudi king urges UN action against religious insults Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, seen here in August 2012, demanded a UN resolution condemning insults on monotheistic religions after a low-budget film produced in the US sparked deadly protests last month. AFP - Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz on Saturday demanded a UN resolution condemning insults on monotheistic religions after a low-budget film produced in the US sparked deadly protests last month. "I demand a UN resolution that condemns any country or group that insults religions and prophets," he said during a meeting at his palace with religious figures and heads of hajj delegations in the Mina valley where pilgrims were performing final rituals of hajj. "It is our duty and that of every Muslim to protect Islam and defend the prophets."
