Teenage Afghan girl enslaved and sexually abused... in the U.S.

That's not all: She was forced at the age of 13 to marry a 37-year-old -- child marriage, of course, being after Muhammad's own example. "Afghan girl enslaved in U.S., indictment alleges," from the Associated Press, October 17:

SEATTLE, Washington (AP) -- Five Afghan immigrants enslaved a teenage girl they brought to the United States, with some forcing her to do chores and one beating and sexually assaulting her, according to a federal indictment unsealed this week.
The girl is from an impoverished single-parent home in Afghanistan, and she was informally adopted by another family there that forced her to marry at age 13 in 2005, Emily Langlie, a spokeswoman for the U.S. attorney's office, said Thursday.
The girl's 37-year-old husband is Mohammad Atahee, a friend of the adoptive family; U.S. officials don't recognize the marriage.
Atahee and three of the family's members were already living in the south Seattle suburbs when the girl's adoptive mother, Nasima Yousuf, 70, brought her from Afghanistan in 2006, as part of what prosecutors say was a plot to enslave her. Yousuf's husband, Mohammad, 84, had filed an immigration petition to bring the girl to the U.S., claiming his wife was her biological mother.
Once in the country, the girl, identified only as JV1, was forced to live with Atahee, who beat her and sexually assaulted her, the indictment said. She was forced to spend at least three days a week at the Auburn, Washington, home of Maruf Yousufi, 42, and his wife, Nahid, 29 -- caring for their children, doing laundry, cooking and cleaning. Maruf Yousufi is Mohammad Yousuf's son.
The girl escaped after some good Samaritans helped her report Atahee to the police in January 2008 for sexual assault, prosecutors said. Since then, she's been at a safe house, but they won't say where.
She also called police in August 2006 to report her case, but Nahid Yousufi threatened her and persuaded her to recant the allegations, the indictment said.
All five defendants are charged in U.S. District Court with one count of conspiracy to engage in forced labor, and the Yousufs also face a visa fraud charge for allegedly lying on immigration applications.
Atahee and Mohammad Yousuf pleaded not guilty, while the others did not enter pleas during their initial court appearances Wednesday. Atahee and the Yousufis were detained pending further hearings, while the Yousufs were released pending trial, set for December 23.
Several of their lawyers did not return calls Thursday or said they could not comment. Ralph Hurvitz, who represents Mohammad Yousuf, said he didn't know anything about the case beyond what the indictment said, and that his client doesn't speak English.
All the defendants have legal status in the U.S., Langlie said. The girl, however, does not, because of the Yousufs' alleged lies on immigration applications. She could stay in the country by obtaining a visa for victims of human trafficking.

Why are these stories never mentioned by any of the candidates? Why have they stayed so resolutely away from the subject of Islam, except for one to gloat about how the "surge" worked and the other to say that the "central front" in the "war on terror" is not Iraq, as his opponent appears to think, but in the equally bleak, and equally miscomprehended, Afghanistan? Why is the most important foreign, or now foreign-and-domestic, policy issue being so ignored?

Nobody get shocked now. When you let the peaceful ones in unfettered you have to take their peculiar customs with them.

If we don't start shutting the doors to immigration from the ummah we will see the next steps in the PC process-officially excusing this sort of behavior followed by the sanctioning of it. Is this really what we want?

of course they are innocent under sarria law (sic) and dont recognize Western law so how dare they be persecuted for keeping a slave in the usa (sarc off) after all they are just following a dead pervert and would be phony prophet

Yousuf's husband, Mohammad, 84, had filed an immigration petition to bring the girl to the U.S., claiming his wife was her biological mother.

All muslim family reunification requests are suspect.

Under sane circumstances, suspect muslim immigrants filing family reunification requests should be granted immediate deportation to accomodate them. Goodbye.

"....the girl's adoptive mother, Nasima Yousuf, 70, brought her from Afghanistan in 2006, as part of what prosecutors say was a plot to enslave her. Yousuf's husband, Mohammad, 84, had filed an immigration petition to bring the girl to the U.S., claiming his wife was her biological mother."

So Nasima supposedly gave birth to the girl when she was 57?

Boot the bastards out, but let that poor girl stay.

There is no compulsion to mention religion...

Since Islam was not mentioned, we can safely assume that these people were Mormons, or possibly Episcopalians, or Wiccans maybe...

It really pisses me off how they abused our system like that. I see every day how the INS fails the American people, but this is ridiculous. She was never even enrolled in school. Her 'biological mother' was 57 when she had her and never once petitioned to get her here ungtil she was 13. Nobody is checking up on these people. It's horrifying. Everyone from an OIC nation should be banned from the free world unless they're a religious minority (not Alawite, Kurd, or any other brand of Muslim), and barring that they should ALL be monitored idefinitely.

I see every day how the INS fails the American people, but this is ridiculous.

Yet again, Americans have to thank their corrupt politicians, starting with the White House. Why are Americans surprised when their POTUS spat on their faces with lies like 'Jobs Americans won't do' or 'Family reunion'. The reality is that these corrupt and timid politicians have taken millions of dollars from corporate America. Once in their pocket, Corporate America makes these corrupt politicians do their bidding, every-where, which includes INS. Why do you think Bush punishes Compean and Ramos, while granting immunity to a Mexican drug-dealer? Americans have probably forgottten that 9/11 hijackers got US visas with little or no scrutiny. Again, Americans have to thank corrupt leaders like Clinton and Bush. Do you think POTUS/Commander-in-chief would push the borders open, if they did not get their corrupt cut?

Alert...The reason the elitist criminals get away with that stuff is because the MSM would rather investigate Joe The Plumber...

Yummy! What a spicy addition to our multi-cultural stew!

China has 500,000 well trained young geologists to scour the world for scarce minerals. We have about 500 graduating geologists, (most of them foreign and just training here). Meanhwile we are 'enriching' our drastically dumbed-down population with 7th century barbarians.

So where's the charge of statatory Rape?

These people should be imprisoned for Statatory Rape in a pound-me-in-the-ass prison and then deported to the sewer they came from.

Inasmuch as this is certainly just the tip of one big, brutal, ugly iceberg, we all need to stay awake to the truth that more Muslim women here in the US will probably need protective help from us in the future.

Us.

"Evil is powerless if the good are unafraid."

But, but, but Islam elevates women!

Tanstaafl, you mean like this?

Alert, I was actually referring to the Chair of my department, a closet Muslim posing as a token Jew, A MESA Nostra member/Saudi Agenda Department adjunct, and an admitted Egyptophile (not pre-Arab Egypt either, but rather modern Muslim Egypt, I assume becuse Third-Reich-ophilia wasn't supremacist or genocidal enough for him, maybe had too much in their culture that was actually worthwhile, or maybe because it's too closeto the top of the scrapheap of history) who admits endless Egyptians to PhD programs who demonstrate on a daily basis both their lack of the equivalent of a Guatemalan 1st-grade education and their inability to behave like decent human beings. Of course the INS and our government more generally certainly enable this by allowing in Muslims from OIC nations at all, by not enforcing their requirements that they understand the law of the land, which they sign a document stating that they do (one of them once asked me what the official religion was in America!), and by never checking up on them. But my school takes it too far by intentionally ghttoizing itself so that nobody learns, by allowing in one token Jew every year, and by never punishing Muslims for generally terrorizing and even stalking students on repeated occasions, when any white WASP, Jew, or Catholic would not only go before the Student Judicial Review, but get expelled for pulling half as much crap that was half as bad. But that's nothing compared to never checking up on a girl who never enrolled in school and her slave-owner adopted 'parents' who sexually abused her.

Undaunted, I would happily bend over backward to help an apostate, but any woman who prays for my murder and enslavement every day gets everything she deserves.

Good point, jdamn. I agree.

My belief is that we should be willing to guard those who may be trying to flee Islam.

jdamn;

A crisp salute for the caveat you proffered.

I tweaked my blog accordingly.

Cheers.

From a "rich multicultural mix" to "coping". An English woman was telling me the other night that the British are "coping well" with multiculturalism. She said a huge amount of their energy and resources are spent simply coping with the influx of needy and troublesome masses into the country. But she said the British "had no choice" but to let them in.
I can see we are all getting to the stage where we can only hope to "cope" and then what? Then we can't cope? Surely that is the next step.
But why do so many people say we have no choice but to sink into this morass?
If a native-born American or Australian tries to bring someone into the country there are checks galore.
Someone needs to do an in-depth analysis of Immigration Department practices and policies because there is definitely something fishy going on.

-- from a posting above

Why do the British, or some of them, think that they have "no choice" but to let them in? Do they think that Great Britain, if it loses its own quiddity and culture, will be a force for good? What would the world look like if the countries of Western Europe and North America looked more like, say, Saudi Arabia, or Somalia, or Pakistan? What if they became more like Saudi Arabia, or Somalia, or Pakistan? What if the most powerful force on earth were Islam? Would that be a good thing, for the world's peoples? Even if one thought -- I don't -- that the West should try to make the world a better place, and share the fruits of its own superior (nota bene) civilization, developed over several millennia, does it make sense, for the good of that non-Western world, for the West to cease to exist, to simply dissolve or disintegrate?

And even if one allows for some immigration, for those who come from elsewhere bearing in their mental baggage an alien creed, surely there is enough reason to keep out those who bear an alien and a hostile creed? Is Islam, anywhere, good for non-Muslims, anywhere? Is it bad only for Western non-Muslims? What about Christians in black Africa and Indonesia, what about Chinese in Indonesia and Malaysia, what about Buddhists in southern Thailand, what about Hindus in Pakistan and Bangladesh and Kashmir? What about Christians in Egypt, Iraq, the Sudan, and every other Muslim Arab state? In other words, what will happen not only to the British, but to all those who may need the protection and aid of the British, if Great Britain slowly, but inexorably, goes Muslim, or at least has a Muslim population united and organized and aggressive, able to call the shots on policies foreign and domestic?

Why the suicidal impulse? Why the utter despairing craziness, as if nothing can be done, it's too late, we must simply bear it all, we can do no other?

Nonsense, on the customary stilts.

Hugh: When in the Sudan I tried to explain to some Christians why the British could not help them more; because the Church is shrinking in Britain and therefore charity funds are less forthcoming. Eventually, I had to say, you are on your own here. There was disbelief. The US of course also helps, and other European countries, but all help will be forced to slow down. It has come to this, yet Westerners themselves are reluctant to admit the possibility that their power is shrinking.
Could we be in a similar situation to that of the south Sudanese, in time?
At least, because I have been to that country, and stayed long enough to get a good look, I can talk about these matters here without being shouted down, as used to happen.
I am learning so much from you. Thankyou.
