Should Muhammad Ibn-Abdullah as a religious leader be put on trial posthumously for crimes against all humanity; as he claims to establish a Caliphate over the whole World and subjugate the whole human population under his laws. In fact, he is now charged under our laws with criminal activity for which he has not faced trial. Charged with war crimes against innocent civilians, of murder, rape, assassinations, paedophilia.

Muhammad claimed eschatological succession to another world religious leader, Jesus Christ, who was tried and put to death for the crimes of humanity. In fact, He is still on trial in many areas of society and by some condemned as guilty

Hi Josephus

Secularist allow Mohammed's followers to get away with murder so I doubt if they would be interested in Mohammmed no matter how much of a criminal he was. The abc is to busy distorting facts about dv in churches than to investigate with truth as a barometer.

Nobody should be tried posthumously, as this would constitute double jeopardy!

Dear Josephus,

I thought this was a joke at first and then I questioned
your motives behind this discussion and what you'd hope
to achieve by stirring up this hornet's nest against
a religious leader whose followers in this country are
already feeling particularly vulnerable and telling us that
they are sick and tired of being regarded through the prism
of terrorism.

Anyway, according to Wikipedia and other webs -
posthumous trials are rare
(and are not allowed in certain countries).

Due to the
heavy cost - they are usually held under extraordinary
circumstances. Then there's so many legal issues.
I'm not a lawyer, but there is the right to a fair hearing
as we should all be aware because of the court case
that is currently in the news dealing with another
religious leader. There's also the question of sentencing
issues and finally can the dead be regarded as natural
(or legal) persons?

Someone pointed out that Martin Bormann was convicted of war
crimes in absentia in Nuremberg in 1946 but (unbeknownst to
the court) had already committed suicide.

If you want to say that you think Islam is rubbish, that its a death cult and subjagates woman, and it is 'in your opinion' like a disease infecting western countries and is supported by a complicit liberal left who would turn a blind eye to anything that suited them politically, then why dont you just say that instead?

Saying you want to put Muhummad on trial, a person dead for 1400 years is like advertising a 'brain fart' or mental illness to everyone, no offense.

Your straying into 'dangerous irrational religious ideology territory', and that makes you one step closer to the type of irrational 'ends justify the means' terrorism thinking ideology the other side is so well known for.

I'm not saying you're a terrorist but try to keep your feet on the ground.

Anyone who claims to be a Nazi and murders Jews is acting in the same immoral framework as Hitler and should be tried as Hitler. Anyone who believes in a super race and ethnically cleanses those of difference is criminally guilty of crimes against humanity. Similarly anyone who claims to follow Muhammed's behaviour in establishing his Caliphate is guilty of crimes against humanity. Currently in some countries Christians are being found guilty for following the teaching of Jesus Christ who taught exclusively, "a young man shall leave his mother and father and be joined to his wife and the two become one flesh."

We could hold a trial in absentia on the impact that Muhammed's behaviour is currently causing on humanity.
