Muslim states seek U.N. action on West's "islamophobia"

WHAAAAAA , sniffle sniffle ,WHAAAAAAA !

Pretty funny , but this will most likely pass , no problem !
But then again it is the U.N. so it really does not mean a thing .

So the Muslims can now call us racist !

(Reuters) - Muslim states said on Wednesday that what they call "islamophobia" is sweeping the West and its media and demanded that the United Nations take tougher action against it.

Delegates from Islamic countries, including Pakistan and Egypt, told the United Nations Human Rights Council that treatment of Muslims in Western countries amounted to racism and discrimination and must be fought.

"People of Arab origin face new forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related forms of intolerance and experience discrimination and marginalization," an Egyptian delegate said, according to a U.N. summary.

And Pakistan, speaking for the 57-nation Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), said the council's special investigator into religious freedom should look into such racism "especially in Western societies."

Acting for the OIC, Pakistan has tabled a resolution at the council instructing its special investigator on religious freedom "to work closely with mass media organizations to ensure that they create and promote an atmosphere of respect and tolerance for religious and cultural diversity."

The OIC -- and its allies in the 47-nation council including Russia, China and Cuba -- dub criticism of Muslim practices and linking of terrorism waged under the proclaimed banner of Islamism as "islamophobia" that pillories all Muslims.

Iran summons French envoy over anti-Islam feelings

Iran summons the French ambassador to Tehran to talk about rising "islamophobia" in Europe. There is no such thing as islamophobia. Every time I hear/read islamophobia I want to puke. Islamophobia isn't really a real word, it's made up. There is no irrational fear of islam, just rational concern because of what islam preaches.

I wonder if the French ambassador will raise the issue of "Christianophobia" in Iran. Specifically, the man facing a death sentence because he converted to Christianity. Internation Herald Tribune


TEHRAN, Iran: Iran has summoned the French ambassador over what Tehran says is an increase of anti-Islam sentiment in Europe.

Sunday's report on state TV and the official news agency IRNA says an official in Iran's foreign ministry expressed deep concern over anti-Islamic sentiment during the meeting with the ambassador, Bernard Poletti.

France currently holds the presidency in the European Union.

The report did not elaborate. But an "anti-Islamification" conference was held over the weekend by a right-wing Germany nationalist group that opposes the building of a large new mosque in the city of Cologne.
