Around 10,000 people participated in the main rally organised on The Mall by the Tehreek Hurmat-i-Rasool (THR). The participants marched from Nila Gumbad to Masjid-i-Shuhada on The Mall. Despite a ban on rallies on The Mall, the road remained blocked for vehicular traffic from noon to 6pm.
The rally was addressed by Jamatud Dawa chief Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, THR head Ameer Hamza, JD leader Hafiz Abdul Rehman Makki, Pakistan Muslim League (Zia) head Ijazul Haq, Jamaat Ulema Islam-Sami (JUI-S) leader Asim Makhdoom and Jamaat Ahle Hadith ameer Hafiz Abdul Ghaffar Ropari.
One of the participants of the rally, Abdullah Ismail, passed away after he was taken to Mayo Hospital. Witnesses said he had complained of feeling unwell from the smoke from US flags burnt at the rally.
Hafiz Saeed alleged that the film, Innocence of Muslims, had been produced with the backing of US establishment. He said the director, the producer and all those involved in the production and release of the movie must be hanged publicly. “The US must make a law against blasphemy – or we will not let the US consulates in Pakistan function,” he said.
He said a resolution condemning the movie in the parliament was not enough. Instead, President Asif Ali Zardari must announce jihad against countries like the US that supported attacks on Islam. The Organisation of Islamic Countries Conference should announce a boycott of US goods. Ijazul Haq, the PML-Z chief, said the people had shown their loyalty to Islam. He said the government leader’s silence was shameful. He said no one had dared commit blasphemy during his father Ziaul Haq’s rule.
Savages with no concept of free speech or freedom of religion.
As part of our telling them to go to hell, we should mention the money goes too.
Why are we still doing anything with muslim countries? Bring our people and money back home and let the kill each other. And if we are attacked again, level a couple cities in the guilty country.
They need us much more than we need them.
So, what does India need? Missile defense systems? Jets? Tanks? Orbital bombardment platforms? What?
India is an increasingly more Muslim country all the time, India is not our friend, it’s government is Islamist. We don’t need to give corrupt, filthy India any more money we give them too much already. We need to strengthen our own country and we need to start stripping greencards and citizenship from Muslims in the US, and deporting them.
If it was Reagan in charge he would tell them to pound sand, cut the foreign aid to zero and warn them any attack on our embassies or their staff will result in daisy cutters being dropped on mosques.
Instead we will get more snivelling weakness from Obama and his merry band of useful idiots.
If I was in charge,I’d tell them to kiss my ass,and if they attack our consulate or ANY American citizen they will die of malaria in a POW camp,praying to Allah to see the sun again before they die. Their death will not be glorious or make them a martyr,before they die,they too will spit upon the Koran in the cowardly hopes of saving their worthless lives.
Let the retarded barbarian savages chew on that truth bomb for a while.
bummer…i was hoping this was a site where I could comment directly to other little muzzie all butt hurt over a movie….sadly, once I read the “free voices american” thing and the comments, it just looks like another teajadist site.
frankly, i’d love to put all this savages on the same ship with all our tea party christian fundamentalists. the worlds wasn’t great before you all became empowered but it was much better. please all of you, take your corrupt religious leaders and your spineless politicians and go away….just go away now so the rest of us can live in peace. you have so much in common…you are intolerant, you hate anything that doesn’t look or act like you, you believe in making choices for others in the name of your god, the final word on all things comes from some imaginary figure that a bunch of your idiot ancestors wrote a story about 2000 years ago, and your women couldn’t give a proper bj to save your lives. please leave the rest of us alone and go away.
thank you.
Dear Sir or Madam,
I wish to bring to your attention a little something in your post that caught my eye. See if you too can detect the problem I found.
“just go away now so the rest of us can live in peace. you have so much in common…you are intolerant, you hate anything that doesn’t look or act like you”
Did you see it? Let’s break it down just to be certain. Based on your deplorable use of grammar, I do not want to take your reasoning abilities for granted.
“just go away now…you are intolerant…”
Hopefully, the light bulb has now switched on. Thank you for your attention.
A sparkling sample of tolerance there Snackbar. How tolerant and enlightened of you to base moral authority on the ability to perform a sex act. Does your thinking ever get above the belt?
You’ve inadvertently hit upon our point. Not all views should be tolerated. Unfortunately you’ve sided with the child rapists and the advocates of misogyny, which spell doom to the society that embraces it. From this font of misery is a rage which cannot be contained within its own culture with bloodlust that cannot be sated. We do not tolerate that social construct no matter how sexually skilled the women may be because it ultimately means the death of freedom and some of us care about the rights of us all rather than the imagined entitlements of a few.
If you got your head out of your shorts, you might have a clearer view.
