The article says
The resolution urges states to provide "protection against acts of hatred,
discrimination, intimidation and coercion resulting from defamation of religions
and incitement to religious hatred in general.""Defamation of religions is the cause that leads to incitement to hatred, discrimination and violence toward their followers," Pakistan's ambassador Zamir Akram said.
"It is important to deal with the cause, rather than with the effects alone," he said.
The greatest source of defamation and incitement to religious hatred is the Qur'an and Islam. Does this mean that the Qur'an should be banned and Islam's preachers of hate muzzled and prosecuted?
