Global blasphemy law

Published September 18, 2018

BLASPHEMOUS caricatures by white supremacists in Europe show their perverse mindset.

On the pretext of freedom of speech, they set out to offend the religious sentiments of the world’s Muslims who have never replied in the same coin.

The Muslims on the other hand have shown great patience and maturity and chosen the right manner to peacefully protest to discourage this malicious practice.

The need of the hour is to enact an international law to banish all such evil forever. The Muslims respect all nations and their religious sentiments, and we expect the same.
