A simple majority of Muslim and renegade states could put it over the top.

Wow.

I mean Allahu Akbar.

[ConservativeMind]

Interesting. And liberals will give this concept actual “respect.”

If a Christian country pushed the same thing, the world would have a fit.

[Cheetahcat]

Hell we already protect Minorities Queers and everything else why not?\s

They may as well plant a crescent on top of the UN building when they finish the $1.5 billion remodel and declare it a mosque.

“a ban on blasphemy.”

How about a ban on blasphemous acts ass h****?

[Gator113]

“Such a ban would face great resistance in Western nations .”

LOL, ya think?

I will never comply. I will never surrender.

Allahu Snackbar....

[theDentist]

Hey Muzzies.. pass this and you guarantee an increase in “blasphemies”.

“an international treaty to protect religious symbols and beliefs from mockery”

So the Cross and the Star of David would be protected in Muslim countries?

[lesko]

Can we have a ban from your thugs constantly killing us?

[yoe]

This is right up Obama and his Czars alley....

[chesley]

And Islam is the world’s most mockable religion, by far.

You don’t think this would be one of those deals where they say, “Nobody thinks this law was passed to protect Christians”, do you?

[LibWhacker]

In other words, seeking a ban on free speech.

The whole world is moving backwards. Back to the Dark Ages we go.

Actaully, many Western countries are already prohibiting [via self-censorship] blasphemy — against Islam. Christianity and Judaism are still fair game.

There will be no equivalents of a crucifix soaking in urine, the Virgin Mary covered in dung directed toward Islam being displayed in Western art galleries anytime soon, I promise you.

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

The way this could be nipped in the bud is to add language to the effect that Islam should have special protections, because it is a weak religion, its followers are prone to desert it if they hear things that are critical of it, and that Muslim women will no longer respect Muslim men.

There is no God called “Allah” and Mohammed was a false prophet! Allahu fubar!

[TexasFreeper2009]

I say may shit be upon the prophet and pedophile in hell.

[Larry Lucido]

We got at least one FReeper here who was arguing in favor of laws in Russia against “heresy.” (Meaning anything non-Orthodox). Can’t remember who it was but I wonder what he thinks about this?

[SpaceBar]

Has nothing to do with respect. Has everything to do with protecting islam from criticism in recently subjugated countries like Britain and Canada.

[Reaganesque]

Do you know if this covers only Islam or blasphemies against all religions? Just curious. It would be comical to see the Libs having to defend their favortie hobby of blaspheming Christianity and Judaism while at the same time supporting Islam’s attempt to ban any and all criticism of their beliefs.
