Tearing down the walls...
...the walls that protect us, that is WARNING: Curmudgeon Mode: ON Mass Media Podpeople and the wackadoos in the Loony Left Moonbat Brigade just can't get over the horror of the Guantanamo Bay detention facility. Gee, you'd think that if they were serious they'd offer the poor, misunderstood sixth-century misogynist Muslims a place in their own homes, wouldn't you? Scratch that. Some of them would.
Bah. Torture by mistreatment of their "holy" book. Riiiiight. (Like, who supplied it to them? And who, pray tell, has been doing almost all of the "desecration" of this piece of toxic waste paper? Yeh, right: the "detainees" themselves.) How about equal press for victims of genuine religious persecution in Muslim countries, all you Mass Media Podpeople, huh? (h/t Mark Steyn for the following from The Universe.)
That's right: underground Christians in Saudi Arabia face arrest and imprisonment. NOT for conspiring or attempting or succeeding in blowing up people who don't share their faith. Nope. That's a Muslim practice. They were arrested for praying. Just not to the pagan moon god of Mohamed.
And apparently private expression of anything but Muslim beliefs is out, too.
They say. but guess what?
Yep. You got it. Our friends the Saudis do nothing to protect the religious freedom of others except to say nice words. Phonies. They're perfectly happy to let their thugs keep persecuting Christians. After all, didn't an interrogator at Gitmo accidentally nudge a Koran with his foot after a "detainee" had put it on the floor? 'Nuff said. "Arrest those Chrstians!" I still say Mecca and Medina would look nice, seen from space, as radioactive glass. Well, it's a thought, anyway... |
