ISLAMABAD: Former US president Bill Clinton on Friday condemned the publication of Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) caricatures by European newspapers and urged countries concerned to convict the publishers.
Talking to reporters after meeting Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz in Islamabad, Clinton said he disagreed with the caricatures and that the publication was against religious and ethical norms. Clinton said he had no objection to peaceful demonstrations being held worldwide, but this was not the time for violence. He said it was the time to promote inter-faith harmony and stand together on the issue.
He said the people’s religious convictions should be respected at all costs and the media should be disallowed to play with the religious sentiments of other faiths. He said the media could criticise any issue including governments and people, but nobody had the right to play with the sentiments of other faiths.
Clinton said people in the US had also condemned the publication and were deeply concerned over it. He said they respected Islam, as it was the fastest growing religion in the US. Clinton also called on President Pervez Musharraf and both men discussed the India-Pakistan peace process and Afghanistan’s peace and stabilisation process.
Musharraf underlined the centrality of the Kashmir issue in the Indo-Pak peace process and the importance of moving towards the conflict resolution stage. Clinton praised Musharraf’s efforts to promote peace and stability in the region. Musharraf thanked Clinton for the support extended to the Pakistani government by the Clinton Foundation for the HIV/AIDS programme. He also expressed the gratitude of Pakistanis to the relief and reconstruction assistance provided for the earthquake victims by the US.
Earlier, Aziz told Clinton that Pakistan was working towards peace and stability in the region through a strong economy, effective diplomacy, credible defence and promotion of inter-faith harmony. He said Pakistan was also making efforts to ensure peace in the region by settling disputes in an amicable way. He said Islam was a religion of peace and Muslims had been hurt by the publication of the caricatures, which reflected the ignorance and insensitivity of the western media. Clinton praised the role played by Musharraf and Aziz in achieving a high degree economic growth and wide-ranging structural reforms besides pursuing peace in the region and across the globe.
Caricatures are their livelyhood, Bill, you sh*t for brains yahoo. That would be like convicting you for making asinine coments.
Right. Our punk anti Christ isn't happy with the work he did to proliferate nuclear weapons. He has his eye on Kofi's job, wants to make the UN more of a menace. Anything can happen. Kofi Annan could keel over next week from a heart attack or get hit by a subway train
I've read it 4 times, but I still don't see where the pandering POS called for anyone to be convicted.
Good old Bill. Still saying whatever his audience wants to hear. And not an honest bone in his body.
There have been fascists running this country for almost 40 years, both Republican and Democrat. I pray the American people will have their eyes opened and fight to regain their freedoms guaranteed by the US Constitution.
>>urged countries concerned to convict the publishers.
Is that for real?!??!!! Astounding if it is!
Clinton said people in the US had condemned the publication of the cartoons and were deeply concerned over it. He's still peddling bullshit, I see......
I actually doubt he said that. I think this is Islamic spin.
ping
took him awhile to jump on the bandwagon, didn't it?

>He (Clinton) said the people's religious connecctions should be respected at all times<
AS LONG AS THE RELIGION IS NOT CHRISTIAN.
Maybe it's time Christians begin to react to their grandual extermination by the press and the jurists. But no, Christians do not riot, and so the ... beat ... goes ... on.
Kofi's term ends this years.

You have uttered the magic word, IF.
Scoundrel though Slick Willie is, I’ll bet he didn’t day that.
But, Oh Bent One, the muzzies don't play. The just murder those of other faiths outright.
"Clinton said people in the US had also condemned the publication and were deeply concerned over it. He said they respected Islam, as it was the fastest growing religion in the US.
Speaking for himself, I'm sure. Whoever 'they' are, I don't think a handful of fearful and appeasing liberal/socialists democrats are representative of the opinion of millions of Americans who are in a state of controlled rage against the murderous cult masquerading as a 'religion' and invading our country.
