Islam ke thaykaydar.
Unless such people are present in Pakistan, the country will remain an intolerant unIslamic society.

We have been riding this tiger for too long & its now biting us in @ss. Nothing will happen unless there is massive crackdown on religions nuts who have not only hijacked Islam, but the country too. No one is safe & anyone who challenges their backward murderous mentality could potentially meet the same fate.
Re: almost ALL of pakistan's leading sunni "scholars" praise Governor's killer
I can not believe this. This is ridiculous to the limit. I was reading jang/dawan and there was a report that these fanatics "celebrated" the murder in some area distributing "methiee"

JI sees Taseer’s assassin in ‘seventh heaven’
Wednesday, January 05, 2011
By Shamim Bano Karachi
In a shockingly blunt endorsement of Punjab Governor Salmaan Taseer’s assassination, Ameer Jamat-e-Islami in Sindh Asadullah Bhutto has declared that the assassin will directly go to the “seventh heaven”.
He said this after a press conference addressed by JI Ameer Munawar Hasan at Idara-e-Noor-e-Haq on Tuesday. The press conference ended abruptly when a JI spokesman Sarfaraz Ahmad broke the news of Taseer’s assassination to Munawar. “Is he alive?” was his first reaction.
“Whoever has killed him is a pious man and will go directly to heaven,” replied Bhutto to a question put forward by this correspondent.
He even went on to say that Taseer would not have got killed if the government had replaced him. “Aasia Bibi will suffer the same fate if the punishment awarded to her by the court for using derogatory remarks against Hazrat Mohammed Mustafa (PBUH) is not implemented,” he added.
Earlier, during the press conference, Syed Munawar Hasan said that the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) should also clear its position in Sindh after parting ways with the government at the Centre.
He said that Altaf Hussain’s party’s stand would sound vague unless all members of his party resign, including the governor, resign and sit on the opposition benches. He said Altaf had twice contacted him on the phone to discuss the political situation.
He was in favour of the government completing its five-year tenure, but he added the people should be provided with some relief by reducing the inflation rate and addressing unemployment issues.
He informed the media that his party would stage a sit-in in Peshawar on January 23 against the forced disappearances and drone attacks.

Re: almost ALL of pakistan's leading sunni "scholars" praise Governor's killer
really sad if they are praising the guy who killed taseer but may be they do have a point regarding not leading the janaza prayer. You can't force anyone to lead a prayer, can you?

Hundreds of Facebook users welcomed the killing of liberal Pakistani politician Salman Taseer as a strike against reformers of the country’s tight blasphemy laws. The Punjab governor was shot on Tuesday by one of his guards, 26-year-old Mumtaz Qadri, who confessed to the murder because of Taseer’s ocal opposition to the law that was recently used to sentence a Christian woman to death.
opposition to the law that was recently used to sentence a Christian woman to death.
Analysts say the assassination underscores how deeply religious extremism has penetrated Pakistan’s conservative society, with even the Internet-literate elite resorting to Facebook to rally support for the killer.
Nearly 2,000 Facebook users joined one group on the social networking site praising Qadri, and dozens of “fans” joined other pages set up in Qadri’s honour in the hours after the shooting.
All the pages had been removed by Wednesday. Facebook was not immediately reachable for comment. But other private account holders used their Facebook status updates to make comments such as: “We salute you Mumtaz Qadri,” “thank God he (Taseer) is not alive (any) more” and praise for the attacker as “a soldier of Islam”.
In a sign of mainstream media opposition, Pakistan’s leading Urdu-language newspaper, Jang, ran a front-page story declaring: “There should be no funeral for Salman Taseer and no condemnation for his death.”
“A supporter of a blasphemer is also a blasphemer,” said a sub-heading, reporting that 500 religious scholars and clerics had paid tribute to Qadri.

All the sunni scholars gave fatwas against suicide bombings so there is no argument about this.

yea...but they are condoning this murder at the same time....isn't that kind of 'weird'??
or do you think that its ok to condone a murder such as this, just because you(not you hareeem) have condemned suicide blasts?

How about not promoting hatred in general. Govt should be arresting and punishing these people for incitement.
But this is the problem with societies ruled by terrorists and extremists. Anyone who speaks against them is killed. I hope there are people left in Pakistan with the courage to fight back.

Politician are corrupt but not stupid, there is a reason no one wants to touch mullahs.
Plus no one should try get in the way of a man who is aiming for a short-cut to heaven.
