SOUTHFIELD. Leaders want radio station to stop airing comments by priest they say defame Muhammad. Muslims and interfaith leaders in Metro Detroit are asking a local radio station owner to discontinue broadcasts in which, they say, a Coptic priest has repeatedly defamed the Prophet Muhammad over the past year.
In an Arabic-language broadcast Wednesday on WNZK 680/690 AM, the Rev. Zakariah Boutros said the Muslim prophet Muhammad had engaged in necrophilia and gay sex, according to the Council on American Islamic Relations.
Boutros has previously come under fire from area Muslims, who say he disparages Islam. The controversial, American-based priest can be heard on purchased time slots on radio stations internationally.
His words have stirred controversy in Egypt and Great Britain, and are embraced by a number of bloggers and Web sites that criticize Islam
How about the fact that virtually every show in primetime offends, demeans, and attacks Christians? For some reason they only care when Muslims are offended.
Boo frikkin hoo. The first amendment in the US still allows this kind pf speech ( though maybe not for long)
I wish I could speak Arabic, so I could defame him in their language... LOL...
He forgot camelphilia.
“Broadcast angers Muslims”
List of things that angers mzzies is getting really long...is there anything that does NOT anger Muslims??? Aside from Dead Jews and Dead Americans??? Seriously...
Nothing dangerous in this demand, eh?
When are we going to stop censoring and outlawing things just because somebody is offended?
Because I’ve yet to get over “typical white person.” But I’m not demanding an impeachment.
Um . . . could I do that?
Really?
“Muslim “”””prophet”””” Muhammad had engaged in necrophilia and gay sex”
He was a pedo for little boys, but I hadn’t heard the other thing.

Impeachment might be little extreme with double standards for the dems and all, but I would ask for an apology and reparation so you “can be made whole again”/sarc
I suppose we would consider stopping criticism of Islam when Muslims stop criticizing Judaism and Christianity!
Didn’t he marry a very young wife, like age 9?
What doesn't?
Note to MOOSELIMS....I don’t CAIR!
Other possible headlines:
Rustling leaves anger Muslims.
Snapping twig angers Muslims.
Itchy sweater angers Muslims.
Accidental eye contact angers Muslims.
Change of seasons angers Muslims.
Etc.
It's practitioners ought to ask themselves why it's so fragile.
“the Muslim prophet Muhammad had engaged in necrophilia and gay sex”
What, it’s against islam to use a radio?
ORRRRRRRRR...
Muslims Angered
Just set the type and run the headline everyday, adding the newest outrage...
