Imagine, a case that would be a no-brainer -- kidnappers go to jail, girls return home -- in Pakistan, "Land of the Pure," has to drag on for months and go to the "supreme court." More on this story. "Pakistan; custody case could go to supreme court," from Compass Direct, August 20:
Muslim kidnappers continue to pressure girls at shelter: ‘Your parents will kill you.’Interesting name, "Masih," as it means Christ in Arabic. More interesting is that in this earlier story, the girls' name was given as "Yunis." Has the family taken on the name "Christ" in an effort to reassert their Christian identity in face of the girls' Islamic captivity?ISTANBUL, August 20 (Compass Direct News) – A custody battle in Pakistan over two Christian girls kidnapped and allegedly forced to convert to Islam remained inconclusive after a hearing today, with rights advocates for the family suspecting Muslim fundamentalists of pressuring the minors and a medical board. Judge Malek Saeed Ejaz of the Lahore High Court’s Multan Branch set the next hearing for Sept. 9.
Lawyers for the Masih family said that if the girls are not returned to their parents at the next hearing they will appeal to the Pakistani Supreme Court. Until then, Aneela and Saba Masih, 10 and 13 respectively, will remain at Multan’s Dar Ul Rahman women’s shelter.
Islamic jurisprudence and Pakistani law do not recognize the forced marriages of minors. The judge’s decision to extend the case was based on Saba Masih’s testimony that she is 17 and on a Lahore medical board’s ruling that she is between 15 and 17."Muslim fundamentalists" pressuring the rule of (secular) law? -- never!Muslim fundamentalists, however, may have pressured the medical board, lawyers said.
Rights advocates said the girls themselves may have come under pressure while at the women’s shelter.Rashid Rehman of the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan said, “They are giving them misinformation regarding their parents, saying, ‘If you return to your parents, they will kill you.’”
Another grand irony possible only in the Islamic world: kidnappers and rapists trying to convince their victims that their Christian parents are really the "bad guys."

Like I said before, this is a situation begging for a bunch of Babtist SWAT bad-asses to go in and snatch those girls from the jaws of death, putting the fear of God, the real one, into their captors and abusers... if the SWAT rescuers let any of them live.

"Muslim kidnappers continue to pressure girls at shelter: ‘Your parents will kill you.’"
More Muslim projection.

Good to see the update.
My parish priest will be sent the link forthwith - Anila and Saba are on our parish prayer list.
I suggest that the story of Anila and Saba so far, as reported and discussed here at jihadwatch/ dhimmiwatch, be sent - with all relevant links - by jihadwatchers to their respective political representatives, especially to any who are known to have even the beginnings of a glimmering of a clue about what Islam does to non-Muslims.
Also send it to any journalist you may happen to know.
All non-Muslim religious leaders and religious publications should have their noses rubbed in it - especially those that are notorious for rabbiting on about 'interfaith dialogue' with Muslims.
I would prioritise the tabloid press and tabloid TV. This story, terrible but true, is surely lurid enough - Evil Muslim Slave-Takers and Pedophiles Kidnap And Debauch Under-Age Catholic Girls, and Get Away With It - for their tastes.
My fellow Australians: I don't think I need to tell you which TV Channel should be sent the details. (Draw attention to the information, provided in one of the previous reports on the plight of Anila and Saba, that in 2005 no less than 50 Hindu girls, and 25 Christian girls, were similarly abducted, raped, and 'converted' in Pakistan).
Time for Kafir fury - icy cold and rational.
Time for relays of local Catholics to sit down outside the Pakistani embassies in the various kafir lands and conduct Novenas on behalf of Anila and Saba and all the other non-Muslim victims of Muslim aggression and oppression inside Pakistan. Christians of other descriptions could provide moral support by being there and participating in a manner appropriate to their traditions. Non-Christians and Hindus could choose to be present in solidarity.
Paging any jihadwatchers who may live in Canberra - are you game? How about UK Catholic and Anglican jihadwatchers resident in London, or US Catholic jihadwatchers in Washington?
A demonstration of this sort may sound pretty 'weak' to the secularists among us - but there is this: we do know, from the 'dhimmi' regs in the Pact of Omar, that Muslims appear to be quite paranoid about public Christian processions, the exhibition of the symbols of the Christian faith, and the sound of Christian prayers and singing. It rattles them.
So: rattle them! Hit them with it, right outside the Pakistani embassies. Nine days' worth of Hail Marys and Our Fathers, readings from the Gospels, recitation of Psalms, throw in a few hymns and a procession with crucifixes, 'bells and smells', banners, icons, the works! Make sure that it's all done with maximum 'decency and order', as St Paul said, with sincere devotion, and aesthetically pleasing.
Church leaders and we ordinary Christians ought to be pressuring Kafir governments to haul Pakistani ambassadors onto the carpet and put a flea in their ear; with the information that 'aid' to Pakistan, and trade with Pakistan, and Pakistani access to kafir medicine and universities, will be cut back progressively with each report of human rights abuses against non-Muslims (whether Christian or Hindu).
(I have personally written to one of my Senators and one of my Federal Govt Ministers, both of them people who have shown signs of dawning awareness of the darker side of Islam, with all the details of Anila and Saba's story so far, asking that our Government should raise the matter both with the Pakistani Ambassador and the Government of Pakistan, expressing anger and severe disapproval).
Donations to 'Release International' and 'Barnabas Fund' would also be in order.

The fastest growing religion - and this is how it's done - by forced conversion in every islamic country across the world. If an infidel is stupid enough to marry a muslim she must convert within two years of that marriage or else divorce will ensue - bring it on I say.

No western team or Delet Force will be sent. First too many muslim have military grade weapon and they know how to use them. You donot send than small force of lightly armed men to take on than large more heavy armed force of people. It is up to the Pakistian legal system to deal with it. You people are watch too many Delet Force moives make by than zionist irsaeli film company. The real world is not even Israel will do anything.

I can see, in my mind's eye, how you fancy yourself, DefenderofIslam, O so Noble Champion of deen and umma. What a blind fool you are, to defend the indefensible and repugnant! Your prickly, brittle, wretched Islam inspires this mockery of marraige and assault on decency! GOD DAMN (as He surely will) your supremacist, inhuman brand of ISLAM!!
