Spain Threatens to Deport Filmmaker for Anti-Islam Documentary

Spain has bent over to Islam out of fear and given the Islamists another victory in their war to impose Sharia on the world.  Unfortunately country after country is accommodating Islam to avoid "unpleasant consequences" from their Muslim immigrants invaders.  Every appeasement represents another victory by Islam and a loss of sovereignty to their host country.

Spain Threatens to Deport Filmmaker for Anti-Islam Documentary

    The case demonstrates how the fear of Muslim rage is threatening the exercise of free speech in Europe. Firasat said he has received far more threats from the Spanish government than from angry Muslims. "I have been threatened by the authorities [and told] that my refugee status will be revoked; I will be deported back to Pakistan where the death penalty for blasphemy is waiting for me."

The Spanish government has warned a political refugee that he faces deportation for making a documentary critical of Islam.

The move comes after Belgium raised its terror threat level to the second-highest ahead of the release of the film, originally planned for December 14.

The case demonstrates how the fear of Muslim rage is threatening the exercise of free speech in Europe.

The one-hour amateur film, "The Innocent Prophet: The Life of Mohammed from a Different Point of View," by Imran Firasat, was posted on YouTube on December 15 and purports to raise awareness of the dangers of Islam to Western Civilization.

Firasat, a Pakistani ex-Muslim, obtained political asylum in Spain in 2010 due to death threats against him in both Pakistan and Indonesia for criticizing Islam and for marrying a non-Muslim. (Read his story here, in Spanish.)
