Warning: This video is graphic. It shows a woman being lashed by a Sudanese policeman. She begs for mercy, cries out for her mother. And the police laugh.
Welcome to Sudan where men are men and women are cattle.
You know how we're always being lectured that we have to learn more about Islam and thus be more tolerant?
Personally, I don't get it. Are the streets of America running with the blood of innocent Muslims murdered by racist Americans?
Of course not. Even after 9-11, Americans have shown incredible tolerance towards a religion whose stated goal is to make sure that every non-Muslim converts to Islam.
I'm all for tolerance--when it makes sense.
But being tolerant of the intolerant makes no sense whatsoever.
It's not just dumb, it's suicidal.
I have a better idea, why don't we teach Islam to be more tolerant of, um, everybody else. Say: Jews, Christians, Hindus, Ba'hai, you name it, because as far as we can tell, Islam is the world's most intolerant political-religious ideology.
There is not one Muslim country on the face of the earth that shows tolerance for its non- Muslim minority. In almost every single of the 57 Muslim countries Jews have been expelled, or live under a form of house arrest. Christians are persecuted everywhere in the Arab Muslim world--this includes Gaza and the PA territories. And the Iranians oppress the Ba'hai with ferocious cruelty.
Homosexuals in the Muslim world are tortured and executed in the public square, usually by hanging, but beheading is also wildly popular. Women accused of who-knows-what are lashed or stoned to death in public, and at home, beaten senseless or murdered by husbands, brothers, cousins, uncles and fathers who cite sharia as religious justification.
I know what you're thinking: we can't police the Muslim world.
True enough.
But we can, at least, publicize and be honest about the Islamists who are in the vanguard of spreading a world-wide caliphate and imposing global sharia. And we can aggressively push against the oh-so-tolerant left who are advocating Islam in academia and in the public sphere, clearly demostrated by the noxious move to build a triumphal mosque--in the name of, duh, tolerance--at Ground Zero.
Again, I know what you're thinking, I'm totally psychic: This is America, it can't happen here.
To which I can tell you that that's exactly what my German ancestors said when the Nazis announced their plan to exterminate every single Jew on the face of the earth.
By the way, Israel, the Jewish State, has been a safe haven to more Sudanese refugees than any other country, including, shocker, Muslim states. In fact, Sudanese refugees risk life and limb for a safe harbor in the Jewish State.
