Muslim leaders say call for global ban on anti-Islam ‘hate speech’ is not attack on free speech

The OIC and The Muslim Brotherhood play their next card at last. I hope its as transparent to everyone else as it is to anyone reading this site.

We as a people are our values and our freedoms are utterly dependent on the fear-free (at least from our own leaders and institutions of state) ability to mock, insult, criticize and limit authority and religious authority and irrational religious authority most of all.

As a people, this must be our red line.

Eduardo Munoz/Reuters Algeria’s Foreign Minister Mourad Medelci addresses the United Nations General Assembly in New York, Sept. 29, 2012. “Why is it when Muslims are stigmatized and defamed, it is defended as ’freedom of expression’?,” he asked.

Algeria demanded new efforts Saturday to limit freedom of expression to prevent denigrating attacks on Islam, appealing to the United Nations to take a lead as nations engaged in new debate on the tensions between free speech and religious tolerance.

In an address to the General Assembly, Algeria’s foreign minister Mourad Medelci called for global action under the auspices of the United Nations to respond to violent demonstrations provoked by a U.S.-produced video that mocks Muslims and the Prophet Muhammad.

While Medelci didn’t offer precise details of how he believed the UN could intervene, his call follows similar demands at the General Assembly from scores of leaders in the Muslim world who want new laws to ban insults against Islam.

Please note this paragraph from the Post article:

On the sidelines of the annual forum, Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, secretary general of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, in an interview with The Associated Press Saturday, called for a global ban on offending the character of the Prophet Muhammad, saying that it should be equated with hate speech.
