Saudis Urge EU not to Link Terrorism With Islam…

Posted on October 3, 2007

Our esteemed "allies" also want the EU to enact laws protecting Muslims from discrimination. Talk about balls, Saudi Arabia is the number one offender of religious discrimination on the planet…

RIYADH, 4 October 2007 â€” Saudi Arabiaâ€™s Human Rights Commission (HRC) will urge its counterparts in the European Union to ask their governments not to link terrorism to Islam and also to issue regulations to protect Muslims from prejudice and discrimination because of their faith.

According to a source at HRC, the government-funded rights body will also address various human rights issues in Europe: when Muslims are unjustly interrogated, treated with disrespect, physically or mentally abused, or not allowed to practice their faith freely such as Muslim girls being prevented from wearing the hijab (head cover) in some schools.

The points are expected to be addressed during HRCâ€™s official participation in the Second Arab-European Dialogue on Human Rights and Terrorism, which will take place in Copenhagen on Oct.21-23. â€œThe dialogue is significant because it is being held in Denmark, where the controversy started over the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) cartoons,â€ the source told Arab News.

Among topics up for discussion are â€œIslamaphobiaâ€ and the fear Europeans have of Muslims or Islam as a religion. Peopleâ€™s general attitudes toward Muslims will also be on the agenda. Another topic the rights body is expected to address is the history of Islam in Europe, specifically in Spain where Muslims contributed to the prosperity of humanity at a time when most of Europe was struggling through the Dark Ages. (huh? they invaded and forcefully converted the Christian population -ed.)
