Allah who?

Pakistan has banned a play that makes fun of burqas. Comments from a Pakistani lawmaker courtesy of Reuters:

"They have committed blasphemy against the Prophet (Mohammad)," Razia Aziz, a female lawmaker from the Islamist opposition alliance, told the National Assembly.

Blasphemy according my dictionary sources is:

'A contemptuous or profane act, utterance, or writing concerning God '
(FreeDictionary.com)
'The act of expressing lack of reverence for God '(Merriam-Webster Dictionary)
'Impious or profane speaking of God' (The Reader's Digest Great Encyclopedic Dictionary)
'Impious utterance or action concerning God'(Dictionary.com)

Yet Muslims have the unmitigated gall to say that Christians are polytheists.
