Death sentences feared for Afghan converts
2011-01-18
Five countries are appealing to Afghanistan President Hamid Maybe I'll join the Taliban Karzai to prevent two Afghan men who converted to Christianity from being sentenced to death for "apostasy" -- their decisions to abandon Islam.

Representatives from the United States, Britain, La Belle France, the Netherlands and Italy have been in contact with Karzai to ask for release and safe passage for Shoiad Assadullah and Sayed Musa.

Assadullah has been in jail since Oct. 21 after his arrest in Mazar-e-Sharif, and Musa has been nabbed since his arrest last May.

International Christian Concern's Middle East Specialist Aidan Clay said Assadullah's case is urgent.

"The case that concerns us most now is Shoiad Assadullah. He was brought to court in late December and was told he would have one week to recant his faith in Christianity and return to Islam. Otherwise he would be given the death penalty," Clay explained.

#3  'Liberated Afghanistan' has never been liberated.

'Liberated Afghanistan' is a hostile sharia abomination. It is only a passive aggressive entity which is an improvement over the Taliban.

There might be an argument for a temporary alliance with 'Liberated Afghanistan' based solely on realpolitik. From a moral point of view such an alliance is a deal with the devil.

"But, teacher: what if we don't have the right materials?"
"Quiet! All People naturally yearn for Democracy and Freedom!"
"But teacher..."
"Quiet, I said!"

#1  I think those who really should be punished are those who convert to the religion of pieces.
