New UN Anti-Defamation Resolution Mentions Only One Religion By Name

[One News Now] Dozens of Muslim-dominated countries want protection. Jay Sekulow of the American Center for Law & Justice explains what that entails. “They’ve put forward what’s called a ‘[Combating] Defamation of Religions’ resolution which would amend the U.N.’s Declaration of Human Rights and would make it a criminal act and violation of international law to ‘defame another religion,'” he explains.
 
Sekulow points out the resolution, put forward by the Organization of the Islamic Conference, only mentions one religion by name: Islam. “[S]o there’s nothing about preventing the defamation of Christianity,” the attorney warns, “which means if you were spreading the gospel, it would be deemed defamatory towards Islam and would be [considered] a crime.”

The rest.
