Jerusalem (AFP) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday he backed a bill limiting the volume of calls to prayer from mosques, a proposal government watchdogs have called a threat to religious freedom.
Netanyahu, speaking before a ministerial committee adopted the draft bill, said he would support such a move that some have labelled unnecessarily divisive.
The bill now faces three readings in parliament before becoming law.
Israeli media reported that the bill would stop the use of public address systems for calls to prayer.
“I cannot count the times — they are simply too numerous — that citizens have turned to me from all parts of Israeli society, from all religions, with complaints about the noise and suffering caused them by the excessive noise coming to them from the public address systems of houses of prayer,” Netanyahu said at the start of a cabinet meeting. more here
Why are there Satanic Temples in Israel?
Didn’t they have a problem with Oak Groves and Baal (that ended badly) some years ago?
izlamo delenda est …
Mohamed didn’t have any high power amplifiers and neither should these 7th century savages.
Obama thinks it is the sweetest sound on earth.
To most, it is the sound of submission, death, destruction of civilized peoples by those who revere a liar, false prophet, murderous, transgender, pedophile.
Noise pollution spreading evil for all to hear.
Should make an exception for explosions from them though.
It’s caterwauling to prayer.
Adjudicate with the exact same laws that prevent folks from having noisy dogs. That will soothe and tranquilize them.
How about just eliminating the mosques altogether.
🙂
The worst kind of noise.
My favorite way to silence the mosques would be JDAMs.
reminds me of the YouTube clip where the guy living next door to a Filthy Mohammedan Savage satan-worshipping center had a dog that “howl-talked” every time the muezzin did his Satan Snackbar spiel. Funny as hell.
muezzin – “Satan Snackbar…”
dog – “rowr, rowr, rurr…”
muezzin – “Satan snackbar…”
dog – “rowr, rowr, rowr, rurrr….”
7th century ideology should only use 7th century technology.
The sound of goats in distress gets old .
