1. Sudan woman faces death for apostasy
(Is there anything more repugnant than Islam as a set of guiding principles?)
<
A Sudanese court has sentenced a woman to hang for apostasy after she left Islam and married a Christian man. “We gave you three days to recant but you insist on not returning to Islam. I sentence you to be hanged to death,” the judge told the woman, AFP reports.
Human rights group Amnesty International condemned the sentence as “appalling and abhorrent”.
Local media report the sentence would not be carried out for two years after she has given birth. Sudan has a majority Muslim population, which is governed by Islamic law. It rules that apostasy – the abandonment of one’s religious faith – is a crime.
2. The link here is old, and the video also is not new. But I am having more difficulty hiding my anger at media and political-class hypocrisy about the slave-raid muslims did in Nigeria against Christian girls. Slave raids of non-Muslims by Muslims and Arab Muslims at that have been an ongoing thing in Africa since the time of the Pirate Red-Beard. The fact that now, there is some faux anger about it should ring alarms. Fortunately, it does.
3. Odd story on Chinese Uighurs
4. Saudi Arabia reports 10 more deaths from MERS virus, 20 other cases
Five of the deaths were reported on Tuesday and five on Wednesday, according to statements on the health ministry’s website.
They took the death toll in Saudi Arabia to 157 since MERS, a coronavirus like Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), was identified two years ago.
The World Health Organisation said on Wednesday that while concern about the virus had “significantly increased”, the disease was not yet a global health emergency.
5. Pakistan seminary teacher, 2 others arrested on gang rape charges
(Now there is a headline you do see every day. The only newsy thing about it is that he was arrested for it)
MANSEHRA, Pakistan — Pakistani police arrested a teacher at a Quranic school and his two friends on charges of gang raping a college student in the country’s northwest, alleging he filmed the attack and may have blackmailed other victims, authorities said Wednesday.
The case against Qari Naseer, 27, in the city of Mansehra marks a rare rape arrest in Pakistan, where prosecutions are few and victims are often stigmatized. In this case, however, crowds gathered outside of a court where Naseer and his friends faced a judge for the first time Wednesday.
The crowd pelted them with bottles of black ink, stones and tomatoes, demanding they be hung in public for the crime, Mansehra’s police chief Khurram Rasheed said. Blackening someone is an insult in Pakistani culture.
6. I have to hand it to Pamela Geller on this one. A massive victory for all of us. A little bit of truth on the side of a NYC Bus. Well done.
Thank you Don L, WhupTdue, M, Fjordman and all. More to come.
#1 I heard a talk radio host in london today being tied in knots over this, being given the complete run-around by muslim callers. Lots of citations of verses from the early Koran – the nice ones. She was really confused by the end of it – just the way islam likes its kufar to be…
The blacks in the US and elsewhere are demanding reparations for slavery prior to the US civil war but are silent on the enslavement of blacks by Moslems in Africa, the outrage should be overwhelming but most are complacent in the face of this modern crime against humanity.
Put in the Black History curriculum.
That is a good idea
Not only are schools worthless, they’re dangerous all the way around.
Yeah we consider them dangerous, that is one reason the governments are fighting against home schooling.

Islamic Rape Boy ?
Of course kids can learn just about anything, depending on the home. Think about all the recent articles about mullah-tutors.
The states are requiring certain courses of study and regular testing but for the most part the home schooled kids are learning several grades above their age.
Do they get Martin Luther King’s Day off?
We may have to re-think the franchise. SheikYerMami posts this clip today, a demonstration:
