We do not make jokes, we simply watch the LA Times, the Orange County Register and CID/HOA board of directors and report the facts!
Of cats, dogs, women and the Vice Squad
July
30, 2008
Prince Sattam, acting
governor of Riyadh province, issued a decision
prohibiting the sale and escorting of cats and dogs in
Riyadh in line with a fatwa issued by the Council of
Senior Scholars, according to Arab News. In the same
same journal, Ahmed Al-Ghamdi, head of the commission
in Makkah province is quoted as saying that it
is ".. prohibited to keep a dog inside home. A
dog can be owned for purposes of hunting, police
duties, guarding houses and property, and by farmers
for herding cattle and sheep." The journal
concludes citing Saudi columnist Abeer Mishkhas:
| "It's interesting to note that the municipality has failed to protect animals on the streets of Jeddah as well as in the zoo. ... I wonder if the officials have considered taking these stray animals to municipality-funded shelters to save their lives? No, it seems that the danger to our 'culture and tradition' comes from dogs and cats inside houses. Those outside are outside any rules and regulations," |
On an unrelated story, Arab News also reports that a
religious cop may have
violated shariah law by marrying six women;
"Prince Muhammad bin Nasser, governor of Jizan
province, has ordered an inquiry into whether a
56-year-old member of the Commission for the Promotion
of Virtue and Prevention of Vice violated Islamic law
by marrying six women", the article reads.
Apparently according to Islamic tradition It is
forbidden for a man to be married to more than four
women.
Across the pond, almost one third of Muslim
students on Britain's campuses believe killing in the
name of religion can be justified. A poll,
conducted for Islam on Campus, a new report from the
Centre for Social Cohesion think-tank, also found that
40 per cent of those interviewed supported the
introduction of sharia law for British Muslims
And in the US, Katherine Kersten in Opinion
Journal sums up recent conflicts over Islamic law
in Minnesota, where Islamic taxi drivers are refusing
to transport passengers carrying alcohol and store
clerks are refusing to handle pork.
"By piggy-backing on our civil rights laws,
Islamist activists aim to equate airport security with
racial bigotry and to move slowly toward a two-tier
legal system. Intimidation is a crucial tool. The
'flying imams' lawsuit ups the ante by indicating that
passengers who alerted airport authorities will be
included as defendants." , reads the piece
In other words, with Senator Obama's world
views, shariah law is coming to a state near you this
winter!
