It is time for all interested parties, from all sides of the issue, to begin or return to a discussion of the term 'blasphemy', and whether the accusation 'blashmeous' carries any moral weight. For instance, is it similar to libel?

A ver Pilatcita. Me parece un error garrafal hacer el mundial en Qatar
Ellos no aceptan nuestras costumbres entonces evitemos confrontación inútil
El pueblo de Qatar no quiere cambiar. Está cómodo así. Hay medios de comunicación a los que ellos tienen acceso y sin embargo
...sigo

Your pen's ink is dry !!!
Salman Rushdie had insulted 1.5 billion Muslims around the world .
Even though i condemn the violence against any one, but i still condemn Rushdie's insult at the same time .
One world, one standard. Not a double standard

Disgusting attack on an innocent author and freedom on every level; plus security was lax. Wishing all the best for Salman Rushdie's speedy recovery.
