Muslim-majority Indonesia launches “heresy app” to report anyone practicing “unorthodox” Islam

27

21st-century Western technology and know-how meet seventh-century barbarity. The sharia app is free on Google’s Play Store. Google censors and scrubs my work and articles and that of my colleagues, but promotes this brutal app.

Muslim-majority Indonesia launches ‘heresy app’ to report anyone practising ‘unorthodox interpretations’ of its recognised religions

  • New publicly funded app lets users report unorthodox practices with a swipe
  • The Muslim-majority country has strict blasphemy laws which land people in jail
  • The app – free on Google’s Play Store – also notifies users on religious edicts
  • This summer a woman was jailed for saying a Mosque’s call to prayer was loud

By Ross Ibbetson For Mailonline and Afp, 27 November 2018

The app will also list religious edicts and blacklisted organisations and allow users to file complaints instantaneously, instead of going through the often cumbersome process of submitting a written accusation to a government office.

‘The objective…is to provide easier access to information about the spread of beliefs in Indonesia, to educate the public and to prevent them from following doctrines from an individual or a group that are not in line with the regulations,’ Nirwan Nawawi, a spokesman for the prosecutor’s office, told AFP in a statement.

However, rights groups fear the application could be misused by increasingly powerful hardline Islamic groups and widen divisions in a country where harassment of religious and other minorities is not uncommon.

‘This is going from bad to worse – another dangerous step to discriminate religious minorities in Indonesia,’ said Human Rights Watch researcher Andreas Harsono.

Bonar Tigor Naipospos, vice chairman of rights group Setara Institute, added: ‘This is dangerous because if mainstream society doesn’t like (a group) they’ll report them through the application – this will create problems.’

Hundreds of thousands of people across the sprawling Southeast Asian archipelago who adhere to non-recognised animist and mystical faiths have long suffered discrimination and limited access to public services.

The Smart Pakem app (left and right) will allow users to report crimes against religion and also stay aware of false faiths proscribed by the government

This year an angry mob rampaged through a small community of the Ahmadiyya Islamic minority on the island of Lombok, destroying homes and forcing dozens of worshippers to flee.

The religious sect has been declared heretical by the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI).

Indonesia, a 17,000 island archipelago nation, is often touted for its diversity and religious tolerance, but it has a wide-ranging blasphemy law that has sparked a backlash.

Criticising religion – particularly Islam, which is followed by nearly 90 percent of Indonesia’s 260 million citizens – can land offenders in jail.

This summer, an ethnic Chinese Buddhist was jailed for insulting Islam after asking her neighbourhood mosque to lower its sound system during the daily call to prayer because she found it too loud.

What happens when this comes to other countries, like CANADA, the USA or the UK?

It’s already here-except the app. Say anything against Islam or Muslims in the UK and Canada and you could end up in front of a kangaroo court “Human Rights Tribunal.” Ask Ezra Levant who was forced to pay a lot of money for allegedly defaming a muzzrat.

We are not enforcing our LAWS and becoming lawless!
Polygamy was one way of SCREENING OUT Muslims.
That is an undeniable right in Islam as a “religion”.

Does “Pornistianity” include a moslem, such as YOU, bragging about giving blowjobs to their son, the male homosexual pornstar “???”? Of course, ALL moslem males give blowjobs to their sons … it is part of the training of an indosneezian moslem girly-boy.

The Immigration Act of 1990 overturned theThe Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952. Of course the legislation was introduced by eddy of may jo kopechne fame, the paddy-mic inside-out ni–er kennedy, and executed by Jorge, the moslem, bush sr.

Eric Brazau was imprisoned for publicly criticising islum in Canuckastan. Mark Steyn was similarly persecuted for daring to criticise islum in print.

It’s already here!
Were you not aware of this?
We have been infiltrated under Obama. Many are gone but eight years of damage that is still going on is quite the fight! Look at the HIGH positions they were in.

John Brennan,
WAS head of the CIA converted to Islam while stationed in Saudi Arabia.
He was sworn in using a copy of the Constitution rather than the Bible…..
He is a known Communist.

Obama’s top adviser,
WAS Senior Advisor to Obama.
Valerie Jarrett, is a Muslim who was born in Iran where her parents still live.
Valarie Jarret wrote her college thesis on how she wanted to change America into a Muslim friendly nation.

Hillary Clinton’s top adviser,
Huma Abedin is a Muslim, whose mother and brother are involved in the now outlawed Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt.

Assistant Secretary for Policy Development for Homeland Security,
Arif Aikhan, is a Muslim.

Homeland Security Adviser,
Mohammed Elibiary, is a Muslim Brotherhood (Jihadi groups political arm) operative.

Obama adviser and founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council,
Salam al-Marayati, is a Muslim.

Obama’s Sharia Czar, Imam Mohamed Magid, of the Islamic Society of North America is a Muslim..

Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships,
Eboo Patel, is a Muslim.

1/13/15: Nancy Pelosi announced she will appoint Rep Andre Carson, D-Ind, as the first Muslim lawmaker on the House of Representatives Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. It would make Carson the first Muslim to serve on the committee that receives intelligence on the threat of Islamic militants in the Middle East! He has suggested. He was before Keith Ellison who is now AG for Minnesota. Ellison is famous for stating:
“U.S. schools should be modeled after Islamic madrassas, where education is based on the Quran!!!”

Congressman, Keith Ellison took his oath on a copy of the Quran.
Congresswoman Michele Bachman was vilified and verbally tarred and feathered by Democrats when she voiced her concern about Muslims taking over our government.

Elena Kagan, Associate Supreme Court Justice (2010) spent the majority of her time at Harvard holding seminars and symposiums looking for ways to make our Constitution and Bill of Rights ISLAM FRIENDLY!
https://thehill.com/opinion/columnists/dick-morris/109903-kagan-promoted-shariah

And last but not least, our closet Muslim himself, Barack Hussein Obama.

It’s questionable if Obama ever officially took the oath of office when he was sworn in. He didn’t repeat the oath properly to defend our nation and our Constitution. Later the Democrats claimed he was given the oath again in private.

Considering all these appointments, it would explain why Obama and his minions are systematically destroying our nation, supporting radical Muslim groups worldwide, opening our southern border, and turning a blind eye to the genocide being perpetrated on Christians all over Africa and the Middle East. By no means is this conclusive.

In his book Obama said,
“if it comes down to it, I would side with the Muslims”.
(And still, some insist he isn’t Muslim!)

Wow I can’t imagine a more vile piece of crap ideology on the face of the Earth than Islam. It’s not even necessary for our existence and yet 1.7 billion retards support this ideology and are imprisoned by it. Not only that they want to force it on the rest of the world.

We need to expel Islam and Muslims from the West to prevent them from forcing it on us. Then we should help non-Muslims and ex-Muslims to eliminate Islam in their countries. If we can remove Islam peacefully all the better, but if it requires warfare so be it.

Eventually there will be no place on Earth left for people to run away from Islam if we don’t defeat it. So it is better to face it head on and finish it off.

Agreed-it’s also a systematic coverup by Leftists, Muslims, media and politicians.

The evil Muslims don’t want us to know the truth so they blatantly lie about Islam’s intention, while the Leftists don’t want to believe it can be true because they don’t want to face reality and deal with it.

People better figure it out soon because the raping/killing/terrorism by Muslims is only going to keep getting much worse over time.

This must make the left so happy. In a few years, most of them will be advocating the same for online posts deemed “offensive” to Islam. In the name of tolerance, in the name of progress.

The dark side loves to use the marvel of technology to let it’s followers troll, harass, fine, and imprison those with whom they disagree. This is going to happen world wide. They know they don’t have anything good and helpful to offer to your life. So they must deprive you of freedom of expression. One World Government is going to be a living hell designed to completely kill faith in God and the exercise of free will. It is from the enemy of mankind. It is much bigger than Islam, which is only a tool of the globalists. They will also destroy Islam when it is no longer useful to their agenda.
