United Nations forbids defaming religion, specifically Islam
Nat Hentoff Reports this Disturbing Development in the international body, which passed this resolution that while 'nonbinding' could lead to a situation under international law where nations would be able to seek extradition and trial abroad of persons who make statements critical or offensive anywhere in the world. Kurt Westergaard, the cartoonist who drew Muhammed with a bomb for a turban comes to mind. In fact the Ugandans who crafted this resolution say they had him in mind too.
Don't count on the resolution affording any relief to the world's many persecuted Christian minorities. The resolution only mentions Islam.
