Moderate Muslim Editor Facing Death

I often wonder why we don’t here more from the Moderate Muslims. We know they are out there. We know they are reasonable. I don’t believe in Islam but as far as I’m concerned your relationship with God is your business. That is right up until something in my nation blows up in the name of Allah. Then I tend to get a bit upset.

Jpost: A Bangladeshi Muslim journalist arrested in the past for advocating ties with Israel now faces charges of sedition, a crime punishable by death in Bangladesh, and will likely be put on trial by the end of the month, The Jerusalem Post has learned.

In a court session on Tuesday in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh, a state-appointed judge ruled that the government's case against Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury could proceed to trial and that the hearings would commence within 15 days.

As editor of The Weekly Blitz, an English-language newspaper published in Dhaka, Choudhury aroused the ire of Bangladeshi authorities after he printed articles favorable to Israel and critical of Muslim extremism.

Bangladesh does not recognize Israel's existence and refuses to establish diplomatic relations with the Jewish state.

In November 2003, Choudhury was arrested at Dhaka's international airport just prior to boarding a flight on his way to Israel, where he was scheduled to deliver an address on promoting understanding between Muslims and Jews. His visit to Israel would have been the first by a Bangladeshi journalist....

...In a May 20, 2005 opinion piece published in the Post, Choudhury wrote: "As a journalist, I counteracted the biased 'news' that promoted hatred of Israel and Jews, condemned terrorism, promoted the free exchange of ideas and urged Bangladesh to recognize Israel."

Describing the moments immediately before his 2003 arrest, he wrote: "Though physically still in Dhaka, my heart ached to kiss Israel's holy soil."

So it appears that being moderate is also a capital crime, at least in Bangladesh. If you are published in a Jewish newspaper or don’t want to kill the jooooos the Islamists will take your livelihood, harass your family and last but not least they kill you. No wonder.

1 This is just one of those things that make me shake my head and fear for our future as a species. There aren't words adequate for this kind of disgrace.

2 Once again we see displayed the "piece-fullness" of Islam.  That is, you have to be a piece-of-**** to kill someone for saying something you don't like.

I have a muslim friend from Lebanon who is totally against the terrorists, but he says he can't/won't do anything about it because he fears for his family's safety.  Even here, they watchdog their own people for any sign of non-conformity.

3 We don't hear from the moderate Muslims because Improbulus Maximus has killed them all.

4 I for one would like to see I.M. hurry up, and get the rest. These last few days show he might have the only idea that will work.

7 Sort of like the Longhorn's offense.

Or defense, depending on who they play.

8 9/11 Whistleblower Sergeant Lauro "LJ" Chavez Speaks Out in Cincinnati Post

http://www.v911t.org/SergeantLauroChavez.php

PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT
I was stationed at United\ States Central Command, which is located at MacDill AFB in Tampa Florida. I was on active duty when 9-11 happened. In the days prior to
the tragedies, we were involved in many exercises. Some of these
exercises included the scenarios of hijacked planes crashing into, our
building the world trade center, the White House, Sears Tower, and the
Pentagon. These drills or exercises as we called them, where
classified Top Secret. Having a Top Secret rated clearance I was
dumbfounded that they would ever push a training exercise above the
level of Secret. Over my 8 years in the Army, I had participated in
many exercises around the world, none of which were ever classified
over the Secret level.

26 What the hell is a moderate muslim. The Koran says for them to be against Christians, Jews and others. A believer is Islam is our enemy sooner or later.
I can find no wrong with them killing each other. They just need to do a better job.

27 No hits on "Lauro Chavez" on the Cincinnati Post site. The phone number appears to be a real one, but no idea who it belongs to, yet.

Apparently the connection to the Post is imaginary; the BS from the Truthers doesn't appear to have ever been published. They claim the Chavez is the "Director of Information Security" for a company called "Domin-8 Enterprise Solutions" in Mason, OH. The address places it in an office park, but that doesn't mean much.

Given that the ONLY appearance of this person is a Truther site, odds are he's a Truther, being mis-represented, or doesn't exist.

28 And Niaz Kahn is alcoholic turd with a huge gambling problem who owes money big time.

I heard he actually tried to sell his sister.

greg - how much did you guys pay him?

Posted by: Cooper Harris at September 23, 2006 12:59 PM (aMi4b)

29 Greg cracks me up. Banning and deleteing is a lliberal, commie thing. Just laugh at the little shit.
I have watched his slow regression to insanity for some time. Problem is the weirdo is actually dangerous. If we don't let him air his fantacies. Go ahead Greg. Rave on.

30 Moderate Muslims do exist. Pls. dont forget sane voices like Salman Rushdie and Taslima Nasreen. But anyway they are under death threats with price tags on their heads.
