MULTAN: More than 2,000 people protested against the publication of blasphemous caricatures in European papers on Sunday.
The protest, organised by Markazi Jamiat Ahl-e-Hadith, Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal, the Power Looms Association, Majlis-e-Shehriyan (MS) and Anjuman Tajiran, was held at Chowk Manzoor.
A cash prize was also announced at the demonstration for the killer of the cartoonist. I announce a Rs 10 million cash award on behalf of the bar association for anyone who kills the blasphemer, said Syed Athar Shah Bukhari, the president of District Bar Association.
The protestors carried placards and banners inscribed with slogans such as, End trade, diplomatic ties with blasphemous states, Down with the United States, Death to Denmark, Down with Israel.
The protestors also burnt an effigy of US President George W Bush and flags of Denmark, USA, Norway, Italy and Israel.

We will continue our protest till the arrest of people who drew these blasphemous caricatures of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and we are ready to lay down our lives for this sacred cause, said Rao Zafar Iqbal.

These wombats are just a tad slow aren't they? I guess living in the 9th century qualifies as slow.

Khaliq Qandeel Sindhu, central secretary general of the Power Looms Association Not the PLA!

You are so right on that. Then they wonder why people distrust Islam. It's pretty clear to me why they are held in such contempt.
To: ncountylee
They're getting a lot of mileage outta this'n.

End trade, diplomatic ties with blasphemous states, Sounds good to me. We'll just buy our cheap shirts and such from Mexico, Ecuador, the Philipines, etc. We don't need their stinking shirts. They however do need our business.
