- Ali Mohammed
Al-Nimr, arrested in Saudi Arabia at the age of seventeen, has been
sentenced to beheading and crucifixion.
- Last week, two
Saudi human rights activists were sentenced to jail for illegally
establishing a human rights organization, questioning the credibility
and objectivity of the judiciary, interfering with the Saudi Human
Rights Commission (one can imagine what that is like), and describing
Saudi Arabia as a police state.
- Karl Andree, a
74-year-old British grandfather and a UK citizen who has been
imprisoned in Saudi Arabia for the last year, is due to receive 350
lashes for unpardonable crime of being caught with some homemade wine.
- British Justice
Minister Michael Gove has now reportedly insisted that the UK could
not possibly enter into a contract to train Saudi prison guards.
- The naïve Western
leaders are those who expect our countries to carry on with
"business as usual" with a regime that sentences our
citizens to flogging, and that beheads and crucifies political
dissidents.
- The naïve
politicians are those who think the publics of the West do not know
what a human rights sewer Saudi Arabia is, or think that we will put
up with it. If that were ever the case, that time is over.
British citizen Karl Andree, a 74-year-old grandfather
and cancer survivor, has been in a Saudi Arabian prison for the last year
and is due to receive 350 lashes -- all for the crime of possessing
homemade wine.

Is international opinion on Saudi Arabia finally shifting? For years,
one of the great embarrassments and contradictions of Western diplomacy has
been the intimacy of the West's relationship with the House of Saud. Of
course, both Britain and America have some responsibility for installing
and then maintaining the Saudi royal family in their position. Were it not
for this circumstance, in addition to the world's largest oil reserves, the
people we now call the Saudi royal family would be neither richer nor any
more famous than any other group of goat-herders in the region.

- "Convert or
Die" — Graffiti on a restaurant, Gothenburg, Sweden.
- "Very
religious Muslims are spreading the following idea throughout the
refugee centers: Sharia law rules wherever we are." – Gottfried
Martens, pastor of a south Berlin church.
- "You have a
cross on -- then you are also a Christian f***ing whore. Do you know
what we do to people like you? ... You get stoned [to death]." —
Muslim threats against Christians in Denmark, documented by TV2.
- A British
Christian family that was attacked says both police and the Anglican
Church have failed to provide any meaningful support and are
"reluctant to treat the problem as a religious hate crime."
- Christian
residents of Europe continue to be persecuted, often by Muslims
allowed into Europe on the grounds that they are being
"persecuted."
- As Muslims grow
in numbers, so do their demands -- assimilation in Europe is falling
by the wayside.
- "Before we
put on a show of unity with Muslims, let's have them begin by
respecting our civilization and our culture." — Giuseppe Berlin,
Municipal Councillor of Cinisello Balsamo, Italy.

Christian refugees were forced to move out of public housing after being
harassed and threatened by Muslims.

Last April, police in Sicily reported that Muslim migrants hurled as
many as 53 Christians overboard during a recent boat crossing from Libya.
The motive was that the victims "professed the Christian faith while
the aggressors were Muslim." Another report cited a boy seen praying
to the Judeo-Christian God. Muslims commanded him to stop, saying
"Here, we pray only to Allah." Eventually the Muslims "went
mad," in the words of a witness, started screaming "Allahu
Akbar!" ["Allah is Greater!"] and began hurling Christians
into the sea.
Even when Christian refugees make it to the West, they often continue
to be persecuted by Muslims, their fellow "refugees."
