I don’t get it. Norway, a self-proclaimed progressive nation that lets anyone in, is now returning gay men to Iraq, and if this article is correct, so are Sweden, Denmark and Finland.
The piece from a publication for gays says that gay men (Lesbians too I presume) will be killed for being homosexuals, but not one word about why that would happen—it’s Sharia Law—the Islamic faith prohibits homosexuality and I have a difficult time understanding why Leftists, running countries like Norway don’t get it. Why are conservatives vilified when opposing gay marriage but homosexual political activists don’t vilify Islamists who want to kill them?
Here is the story:
Life is brutal for LGBTs living in Iraq: there’s the familial “honor killings,” police raids on gay parties, the secret police who will burn down your house and slash your throat, the murderers who stalk gay chat rooms for fresh victims, militia groups willing to gang rape and execute the gay out of you, and last but not least, the vigilante groups that will kill you by gluing your anus shut and feeding you laxatives.
So when Norway’s High Court refused asylum to gay Iraqi refugee Azad Hassan Rasol and suggested he “go home and be discrete,” they basically told him that if he acts less fruity, he might have a chance of actually surviving there—hardly a reassuring plan in a hellhole where every day could be his last.
Since Rasol hails from the Kurdish region of Iraq, Norwegian Immigration authorities said that the risk for gay men in that region “differs greatly” from the rest of Iraq and that he can seek protection from the regional authorities.
Uh, yeah… good plan.
Unless Norway or another country grants Rasol asylum, he and his Norwegian boyfriend will return to Iraq where Rasol says that his clan will gladly kill them.
Of course, the way Europe is going, gay men/women won’t be safe from Islamic persecution there either. Check out this article (Hat tip: Judy) entitled ‘Sharia Law already devouring the UK.’
