Wanted: Dead — Former Pakistani Pol Offers $200K Bounty for Death of Anti-Islam Filmmaker

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (TheBlaze/AP) — A former Pakistani legislator has offered a $200,000 bounty for anyone who kills the maker of an anti-Islam film that has angered Muslims around the world.

Ikramullah Shahid made the offer at a rally Monday in the northwestern city of Peshawar, before a crowd of about 15,000 people.

The rally was led by the Difa-e-Pakistan Council, an umbrella group of radical Islamic and militant groups. Shahid is a member of the group.

This is the second such offer made by someone in Pakistan. A federal cabinet minister earlier offered $100,000 for the man behind the U.S.-made film that portrays Islam’s Prophet Muhammad as a fraud, womanizer and child molester.

Outraged Muslims have rallied against the film. At least 23 people have died in protests in Pakistan against the film.

But while many have blame the film for Middle East unrest, Libya’s president has said unequivocally that the movie was not behind the attacks on U.S. officials in his country that were at the forefront of the violence. Obama administration officials have also came under fire last week after outlets reported that officials declared the action a terrorist attack internally within 24 hours but continued to blame the film publicly.

Some have even called on Ambassador Susan Rice to resign, as she was the leading official advancing the narrative that the film was to blame.

The 55-year-old Califronia man behind the film, Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, is currently in custody after a judge determined that in making the film he violated his parole. He was convicted of federal check fraud charges in 2010.

    No one can say they Love God and hate their fellow man. No one can truly be a follower of The One True God and demand the death of anyone for any reason.
    Any man who hates another, because of their religion, does not truly love God

      Thanks… The joke is not mine I found it on the net, but it is hilarious…

      Outlaw sharia, muhoundmud, the quran, the hadiths, all peoples and references to islam in America as things that ‘Incite or Provoke Violence’….. sounds perfect.

      :]

    “and now we find this sickening fact, that according to the extraordinarily well informed Walid Shoebat, the despicable episode in Bengazi ws staged by a cabal run directly out of Valarie Jarrett’s White House in conjunction with the Muslim Brotherhood! They made the inflammatory film a year ago, kept it on ice, then quietly posted it in early July to start jihadist ball rolling”
    Also: “Andrew McCarthy, Walid Shoebat, and Diana West have factually established that the Muslim Brotherhood is the ABEDIN FAMILY BUSINESS.”
    I found this in a long article posted on Sept 30, 2012 at http://www.ruthfullyyours.com by Joan Swirsky, entitled: Enemies of the Jews come not from a place of pride but of prejudice.

    I was sitting at a long stoplight yesterday, minding my own business, patiently waiting for it to turn green even though there was no on-coming traffic.
    A carload of bearded, young, loud Muslims, shouting anti-American slogans, with a half- burned American Flag duct taped on the trunk of their car and a “Remember 9-11″ slogan spray painted on the side, was stopped next to me. Suddenly they yelled, “praise Allah” and took off before the light changed.
    Out of nowhere an 18-wheeler came speeding through the intersection and ran directly over their car, crushing it completely and killing everyone in it.
    For several minutes I sat in my car thinking to myself, ” Man…that could have been me !”
    So today, bright and early, I went out and got a job as a truck driver.

    The life of a merc is something every kid dreams of. Fight, pillage, profit.

    The warrior culture of Islam is quite interesting. You MUST fight, any way will do, be it court room or battlefield.

    Secondly, if you die, instant access to paradise. Nice.

    But if you don’t die, you get full access to slaves and booty. (but must tithe around 10% to other Muslims. Only caveat)

    It’s no wonder these vermin reached as far as the Pyrenees mountains and beyond in Western Europe. Their tactics are flawless for any warrior society, there is no win-lose, only win-win.

    Give our soldiers 50 dollars for every muslim they kill…(every muslim-no limit..no rules) and watch them work. Several would come home millionaires….if they decided to come home.

      I can front all the sausage, and kick in some kegs of a decent micro-brew. Pepperoni, some more bacon of course, and a few whole hogs smoked. Add more bacon though. Thick slab, peppercorn an maple to cover all taste buds. Virginia hams too, salted and sugar cured.

    $300,000 would be a nice contribution to Obama’s reelection campaign and the film maker is now in custody. Guess what might happen next. I can see the film maker “escaping” with the help of the Justice Dept (i.e. Eric Holder) and seeking “refuge” in, let’s say, Pakistan.

    How does making a stupid youtube video violate parole?
    Yet the muslims can put a bounty on the guy’s head and still be called the religion of peace by the media?

      There’s one plan and that is to social engineer everyone to be ‘respectful’ of Islam, in this case they are making everyone afraid to speak up against it.

    Where is Obama on how this is an unacceptable way from the religion of peace to behave. Or Hillary how she is angry at such behavior.

    Aren’t you cute??? Bet we could take up some collections here to take care of business there. As a matter of fact we are in the process right now. Yes, sir, and we are gaining every day. You see, we are collecting prayer and offering to our JESUS “the sacrifice of praise”. We are busy praising HIM and lifting HIM up in our hearts and lives. Our GOD, THE ONLY GOD, is getting ready to venge on behalf of HIS kids all over the world.

    I believe if I were you, I’d take a closer look at who or what it is I serve and maybe do a sharp turn around and head on HOME.
