I don’t believe any Muslims when it comes to their religion. I think they are all ashamed of the fact that it doesn’t square with the values of the rest of the world and yet they have been so brainwashed that they can’t stop believing it.

Stoneings, beheadings, and honor killings don’t mesh well with most of the world. The only way we can co-exist with the Muslims is to keep them separated and that is something that could have been done so easily if it wasn’t for them sitting on top of the worlds oil supply.

Political correctness and oil is forceing us to pamper and pander to an out-moded religion. The West better wise up pretty quick. We have acceptable procedures for dealing with disease control. Why not practice a little of it. These people think nothing of resisting the spread of Christianity in their nations why shouldn’t we recipricate?

CAIR will do absolutely nothing.
And they’ll have a lot of company including NOW and Amnesty International.
It’s baffling to me why the only people to speak for this poor girl are (for the most part) white, Christian and male.
Like where is Mother Sheenan or the Rosenator?
Nothing from “She who would be president” either?
This girl wasn’t killed because she wouldn’t do her homework, y’know.
In a society that takes parents to court for spanking their children, killing them is now OK?
I don’t get it.

I’ve wondered that myself. Maybe the 25% Muslim ownership in Newscorp?

I wonder, out loud, if this CAIR tool would only appear if he was broadcast unopposed? Or if CAIR has a policy of only appearing on ntnl TV unopposed, on these and other selective sensitive issues?
Why wouldn’t Fox have someone more studied on islam and the Koranic ways to counter his rhetoric?

Ahmed Rehab fingers crossed “Islam does not believe in honor killing! We are a sect…er…religion of peace.”

John Gibson would have been a better choice to do this interview.

Even though it goes back to 1991, the murder of Tina Isa is just crying out to be made into a movie. Too bad there’s no one in Hollywood who would make it.

Too bad Megyn Kelly didn’t note any of those or any of the details.

I saw this live and was extremely disappointed Kelly was the only one to challenge the CAIR fool. She did fair, but needed help.
Fair and balanced? Fox should have had someone to bring up other instances of muslim honor killings, or show us where in the Koran it teaches these horrible things. Spencer? Ayaan, anyone not from CAIR.

Nice MM plug tho.

Bryan:
Yup, I was right. The Sabhnanis (you have their story about abusing their servant linked under “Speaking of Freedom of Choice”) are not Muslim. At least, I don’t know many Muslims who keep a “Hindu shrine” in their Long Island mansion. Do you? Like I said, there are many, many instances of Muslim brutality toward servants. But this is not one of them.

As for the case of Palestina Isa (Michelle calls her Tina, but her name was actually Palestina), which I have written about: while being one of the more famous cases–it was because of an FBI investigation connected with Abu Nidal and ripping off of gas in Michigan, is one of the older cases. (It is also important because her mother–a convert to Islam–participated.) There are many, many more more recent and equally brutal instances of honor killing of Muslim girls in America, by their fathers, brothers, uncles, boyfriends, etc. Too bad Megyn Kelly didn’t note any of those or any of the details. It would have been more demonstrative of how violent and deadly the religion is.

Well, if I ever have a daughter, I might feel inclined to shoot any boy I catch in her room. Not for religious reasons, just for the sheer audacity of the boy to dare enter my daughter’s room (believe me, he’ll have had plenty of warnings beforehand).

Their religion isn’t included in the story. In stories like these, that usually means they’re Muslim so that’s the way I leaned. Your sources say they’re not, so fair enough.

By: Debbie Schlussel

Debbie Schlussel — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 21:22:00 +0000

Bryan:
While I’ve written plenty on Muslims abusing, beating, and raping “servants” as slaves, throughout America, what is your proof that the Sabhnanis are Muslim? My sources in the NYPD said they were actually Hindu (the husband, for sure). The slave was Muslim (she was mad she had to eat pork), so I don’t think that link about “freedom of choice” makes your case.

And no harm will befall my hypothetical daughter; just a short lecture regarding the fact that I had to dispose of another horny boy again.

Anyway, when the father came home his daughter had a guy in her room. The father walked into the room, shot her and tried to shoot the boyfriend. The guy went to jail saying “What did I do wrong?”

Rehab pretty much told us all CAIR is going to do about it – shrug it off as domestic violence with no reference to Islamic law. Megyn did fairly well during the interview, although if she’d apologized one more time, I’d have hit the remote. In the end, though, she came through and did not back down.

BTW, we had a friend of the family (or brother of the friend, something like that) I was little when it happened.

Bryan on December 17, 2007 at 3:53 PM

zane isn’t totally off-base here. Christianity, Judaism, and Buddhism are really the only globally recognizable religions that have done away with honor killings.

India has the same problem as China when it comes to aborting female babies. The caste culture is still alive and well in some parts of India, and the culture as a whole still values men over women. Gender equality (note to me: find better, less feminist sounding descriptor) is mostly a Westerm convention.

Here’s an idea. Instead of covering their women, why not just blindfold the men? It would be much more fabric-efficient.

Ahmed Rehab? That would make a good band name or the name of a movie about trying to reform a terrorist.

P.S. Yeah making fun of someone’s name is low, but this guy can use some making fun of.
