MSM Suppresses Key Facts about Shari’a Law as Practiced in Sudan

Earlier today I posted about how President Musharraf is banning foreign students from maddrassahs in Pakistan where they're being taught to hate non-Muslims:

Mufti Naeem said foreign students were still reeling from the impact of the government’s decision.

“These last few days have been like a living hell for us,” he said.

Commenter Tsar Lazar responds:

Ahhh, the price of jihad!  Strange how jihadis seem eager to give their lives, but when it comes to their student aid, well…

Bingo. It's interesting how the teachers in the madrassas can't bear to give up their profits from foreign students, all the while they are teaching those very students to blow themselves up. This perfectly underscores my argument that the society that trains people to be terrorists, cannot withstand any rigorous costs of doing such actions, and will quickly stop producing new terrorists once we impose costs on them for doing so.

Tsar Lazar continues: 

Why haven’t we seen the West’s MSM talking about the “living hell” that the widows, orphans, and other survivors of the London bombings are undergoing?  Where are the vivid articles about the victims of the killings of non-Muslims in India by Islamic “warriors” over the past week?

Indeed, the MSM seems to have undertaken an intense course in Muslim apologetics.  An article in the New York Times by Warren Hoge and datelined July 30 summarized a report by the UN on the ignoring of rape reports by the Sudanese government.  The article is well done, and makes the points well.  Unfortunately, the overwhelmingly important fact that Sudan is one of the hardest-line Islamic countries in the world is noted only by its absence.  Also skipped is the fact that the women whose rapes are ignored are either Christians or native animists living in camps after being dislocated by the Muslim-dominated government military’s offenses against their homelands in southern Sudan.

Anyone who knows the Qur’an knows that this kind of treatment of non-Muslim women is not only allowed under Islamic law but is actually commended by Muhammad himself in Muslim tradition. The fact that “Under Sudanese law, the report said, a pregnant unmarried woman who cannot prove she has been raped can be charged with adultery, a capital crime. To convict a man of adultery, the testimony of four witnesses is required” is true; what is NOT mentioned is that this is not Sudanese law, it is Shari’a, or Islamic law taken directly from the Qur’an.  But mentioning that, of course, would be too close to the truth for American Muslims who would, no doubt, protest about the Times‘ “prejudicial” coverage. 

Unfortunately, the MSM seems to be aiding and abetting Jihad all across the board even in the face of the half-hearted actions of Islamic governments like Pakistan. 

Excellent observations.
