Damascus-Sana

The Union of Scholars of the Levant condemned the recent positions and statements made by French President Emmanuel Macron and other politicians, journalists, and pretenders of thought in the West and their tools under resonant names and slogans such as freedom of opinion and belief, freedom of the press and intellectual creativity.

In a statement, SANA received a copy of it today, the Federation emphasized that insulting religious beliefs, sanctities and symbols does not at all fall under freedom of opinion and expression, but rather is a blatant violation of all moral and human principles and values, and that the punishment for murder crimes is in the application of laws and not by offending the feelings of Muslims.

The Union indicated that what the United States, France and other Western countries are doing to shed light on some specific crimes here and there in order to use them to distort the image of Islam. The world will not forget the heinous crimes they carried out in their black history full of the most heinous forms of murder and terrorism that they filled with the countries they occupied. And they have dominated the necks of their people, killing their blood, plundering their wealth, and destroying their civilization and heritage.

In its statement, the Union of Scholars of the Levant called on all the wise and fair people in the world to come together to stop such offenses, calling on everyone who brags day and night with the freedom of belief, opinion, press and media, and fabricates argument after argument for attacking Islam to stop this extremist approach that supports terrorism instead of combating it and giving an opportunity For criminals, takfirists and pretenders to distort the truth of the religion of mercy, goodness and humanity.

Macron had defended the "Charlie Hebdo" newspaper reprinting offensive cartoons of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, claiming that this matter came within the framework of freedom of expression.
