Paki Muslims Honor Texas Shooters as Martyrs for Opposing Free Speech

May 7, 2015

Muslims gathered at the Gausia Madrassa in Peshawar, Pakistan to honor the Memory of Pakistan ex-pat Hamid Nadir Soffi and Phoenix Arizona room mate Elton Simpson for their martydom over the “blasphemous” figurative representations of the Prophet Mohammed displayed at the Garland, Texas American Freedom Defense Intiatitive (AFDI) -sponsored Muhammad Art Contest on May 3, 2015. The Clarion Project reported: “Nadir Soofi and Elton Simpson were honored for their ‘martyrdom’ after they were killed attacking a ‘Draw Mohammed’ event in Garland, Texas.

The Clarion Project Report noted:

Around 100 people gathered to hold a memorial service in Peshawar for the gunmen. A cleric delivered a eulogy saying “The exhibition of the blasphemous caricatures was unbearable for Muslims. It was shocking, sad, tragic and intolerable. We have gathered here to pay tribute and to carry out the Islamic rites for the Muslims who tried to stop it and sacrificed their lives and they will now be called ‘Martyrs for the prophet’s honor.’”

Ghausia Madrassa, the Pakistani Islamic school whose students are pictured protesting, also held a demonstration to honor the Islamist militants who carried out the attack on satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in January.

One of the gunmen, Nadir Soofi, attended high school in Pakistan at the elite $20,000 a year International School of Islamabad.

Classmates remember him as charismatic and popular ladies-man. One classmate recalled his performance as the lead in the Elvis inspired musical ‘Bye-Bye Birdie” saying he had been a “confident heartthrob.”

She told AFP “He was always good looking, throwing back his long silky hair, but after the play he did, wow — he was Mr Elvis of school.”

Looks like Paki ex-pat Soofi and Phoenix room mate American convert to Islam, Simpson, dearly believed the Salafist/ Jihadist exemplar of the Prophet Mohammed, espoused by those Islamic State tweeter pen-pals, earning their martyrdom by attacking ‘blaphempous” free speech in America.
