discrimination, xenophobia and related
intolerance

racism

 

related intolerance

The
following quote is from Preliminary document of the African Regional
Conference Preparatory to the Durban Review Conference
[Emphasis added.]

4.  Emphasizes the urgent need to
address the scourges of anti-Semitism, Christianophobia, and Islamophobia
as contemporary
forms of racism
as well as racial and violent movements based on racism and
discriminatory ideas directed at African, Arab, Christian, Jewish,
Muslim and other communities;

These terms, when used in UN resolutions, imply Islamophobia.
They are used to condemn and criminalize all criticism of Islam, Allah,
Moe and their doctrines & practices.

Alarmed by the use of
the internet and
social media by extremist
groups and individuals_     _

to disseminate racist ideas
and propagate racism, racial
discrimination, xenophobia and


related intolerance,
(NEW, Paragraph 12 of Report AIHRCl20138)

 

extremist groups

This is a code phrase for EDL, Velams Belang,
Freedom Party, Tea Party, etc. It is a smear: an attempt to link
defenders of liberty with Nazism & Fascism.

Deploring the use of the print,
audio-visual and electronic media including the Internet,

and any other means to incite
acts of national, racial or religious violence, xenophobia or

related intolerance and
discrimination against any
religion, as well as the targeting of

religious symbols and venerated
persons (AIHRCIResolution 10122, updated)

 

incite acts of religious violence

Religious violence is incited in the Qur’an (3:151, 8:12, 39, 57, 59, 60, 65, 67, 9:5, 29, 111, 120, 123, 47:4, 49:15 & 61:10), in hadith (Sahih Bukhari 1.8.387, 4.52.177, Sunan Abu Dawud 14.2635, 23.3455 & 14.2497), and Shari’ah (Reliance of the Traveller:
O9.0-9, Hedaya Vol. 2, pg 140-230). Muslims riot because of rabid kutbah in
the mosques and mass media, not because of cartoons such as the Motoons or videos such as Fitna
& Innocence
of Muslims.  Those videos do not incite, they expose
incitement.

any religion

Islam! That is all the OIC and their dhimmis are
interested in.

religious symbols

The Qur’an.

venerated persons

Allah & Moe.

4. Recalls that preventing and
combating racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and

related intolerance is a primary responsibility of States, and in this
regard,

recommends:

…

(a) That States should develop and implement national action plans to combat

racism and racial
discrimination, and to promote diversity, equality, equity,

social justice, equality of opportunity and participation of all. These
plans

should aim at creating conditions for all to participate effectively in
decisionmaking

and realize civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights in
all

spheres of life on the basis of non-discrimination, (NEW, based on
paragraphs

50, 51 & 56 (a) of Report AIHRC120133)

action plans to combat racism

They are demanding national legislation to
criminalize criticism of Islam and prohibit “profiling”.

6. Reiterates, particularly
considering contemporary challenges in this area, the primacy      

of elaborating additional
protocols to the International Convention on the Elimination


of All ~orms-of Racial
~iscrimination, filling both procedural and substantive gaps

with a view to maximum protection, adequate remedies and combating
impunity for

no-recurrence.(NEW)

protocols to ICERD

There is an Ad Hoc Committee for this purpose, which
meets again in May of 2013. Its deliberations have been stalled on both
procedural and substantive issues.  Its mission is to code binding
protocols which, when signed, will be legally binding and
enforcible.

substantive gaps

This is a code phrase for the lack of provisions
criminalizing criticism of Islam.  They want the guts of the old
defamation resolutions injected into ICERD so that they can be enforced
in court.
