This kind of thing can only happen in a fundamentally diseased society. The mullah saw the 10-year-old girl as a desirable sex partner — in a society that reveres a 54-year-old man who consummated a marriage with a girl when she was nine as the perfect model for human behavior. Her rape is then not seen as something reflecting poorly upon the perpetrator, but upon the victim, who failed in her responsibility to keep the desires of all men in check. Thus her family wants to kill her, and those who are trying to protect her have received death threats.
But remember: to speak out against all this barbarity would be “Islamophobic” and “bigoted.”
“Struggling to Keep Afghan Girl Safe After a Mullah Is Accused of Rape,” by Rod Nordland, New York Times, July 19, 2014 (thanks to all who sent this in):
KUNDUZ, Afghanistan — It was bad enough that the alleged rape took place in the sanctity of a mosque, and that the accused man was a mullah who invoked the familiar defense that it had been consensual sex.
But the victim was only 10 years old. And there was more: The authorities said her family members openly planned to carry out an “honor killing” in the case — against the young girl. The mullah offered to marry his victim instead.
This past week, the awful matter became even worse. On Tuesday, local policemen removed the girl from the shelter that had given her refuge and returned her to her family, despite complaints from women’s activists that she was likely to be killed.
The case has broader repercussions. The head of the Women for Afghan Women shelter here where the girl took refuge, Dr. Hassina Sarwari, was at one point driven into hiding by death threats from the girl’s family and other mullahs, who sought to play down the crime by arguing the girl was much older than 10. One militia commander sent Dr. Sarwari threatening texts and an ultimatum to return the girl to her family. The doctor said she now wanted to flee Afghanistan.The head of the women’s affairs office in Kunduz, Nederah Geyah, who actively campaigned to have the young girl protected from her family and the mullah prosecuted, resigned on May 21 and moved to another part of the country.
The case itself would just be an aberrant atrocity, except that the resulting support for the mullah, and for the girl’s family and its honor killing plans, have become emblematic of a broader failure to help Afghan women who have been victims of violence.
The result challenges hopes that Western aid and encouragement can make lasting headway on behalf of Afghan women, particularly in remote parts of the country where traditional customs are still stronger than modern law. Here, Taliban insurgents and pro-government elements often make common cause in their hatred of progress in women’s rights, most of which has come about with international funding and pressure.
Most of the anger in Kunduz has been focused not on the mullah but on the women’s activists and the shelter, which is one of seven operated across Afghanistan by W omen for Afghan Women, an Afghan-run charity that is heavily dependent on American aid, from both government and private donors.
“People know this office as the Americans’ office,” Dr. Sarwari said. “They all think the shelter is an American shelter. There isn’t a single American here,” she said.
“W.A.W. is not American-run,” said Manizha Naderi, its executive director. “Every single staff member is an Afghan. They are from the communities we work in. Our only concern is to make sure women and girls are protected and that they get justice.”
As the Western withdrawal from Afghanistan has accelerated, rights advocates are seeing a sharp difference in their funding. “We already see the signs of losing the support of the international community,” said Ms. Geyah, in an interview before she resigned. “No one’s funding new civil society programs anymore. None of the foreigners show up anymore; they’re all in hiding. And I think what gains we have achieved the last 13 years, we’re slowly losing all of them.”
Continue reading the main storyThe accused mullah, Mohammad Amin, was arrested and confessed to having sex with the girl after Quran recitation classes at the mosque on May 1, but claimed that he thought the girl was older and that she responded to his advances.
The girl’s own testimony, and medical evidence, supported a rape so violent that it caused a fistula, or a break in the wall between the vagina and rectum, according to the police and the official bill of indictment. She bled so profusely after the attack that she was at one point in danger of losing her life because of a delay in getting medical care.
After the two women’s officials began speaking out about the case, they started receiving threatening calls from mullahs — some of them Taliban, others on the government side — and from arbakai, or pro-government militiamen. One of their claims was that the girl was actually 17, and thus of marriageable age, not 10.
Photographs of the girl that Dr. Sarwari took in the hospital clearly show a pre-pubescent child, and the doctor said the girl weighed only 40 pounds. Few Afghans have birth records, and many do not know their precise ages. But the girl’s mother said she was 10, and a forensic examination in the hospital agreed, saying she had not yet started menstruating or developing secondary sexual characteristics.
In the photographs, which Dr. Sarwari displayed on her laptop computer recently, the girl has beautiful alabaster features and inky black hair cut in a pageboy style. She lay in her hospital bed under a quilted blanket with cartoon characters on it.
Ms. Geyah said she showed photos of the girl to government officials and prosecutors to prove that she was much too young to have consented. Dr. Sarwari said, “We wanted to give her a face, to make her real to them.”
Ms. Geyah said: “I went to the hospital when they brought her there. I was sitting next to her bed when I overheard her mother and aunt saying that her father was under tremendous pressure by the villagers to kill the girl because she had brought shame to them.”
Such honor killings in rape cases are common in Afghanistan, and are often more important to the victim’s family than vengeance against the attacker. Human rights groups say about 150 honor killings a year come to light, and many more probably go unreported.
When Dr. Sarwari, who is a pediatrician, arrived to pick up the girl at the hospital, a crowd of village elders from Alti Gumbad, the girl’s home village on the outskirts of the city of Kunduz, were gathered outside the hospital; the girl’s brothers, father and uncle were among them. Inside, Dr. Sarwari encountered the girl’s aunt, who told her she had been ordered by her husband to sneak the girl out of the hospital and deliver her to the male relatives outside. “She said they wanted to take her and kill her, and dump her in the river,” Dr. Sarwari said.
Efforts to reach the girl’s relatives by telephone were unsuccessful, and insurgent activity around Alti Gumbad made the village too dangerous for journalists to visit. “The girl’s family gave us a guarantee that they would not harm her,” said Sayed Sarwar Hussaini, head of the Kunduz police criminal investigation division. “We would not hand her back unless we were sure.”
Continue reading the main story Continue reading the main storyIn the hospital room, the doctor found the girl’s mother holding her child’s hand, and both were weeping. “My daughter, may dust and soil protect you now,” Dr. Sarwari quoted the mother as saying. “We will make you a bed of dust and soil. We will send you to the cemetery where you will be safe.”
Even mothers here often believe that there is no choice but to kill rape victims, who are seen as unmarriageable and therefore a lifelong burden to their families, as well as a constant reminder of dishonor. “Their men feel they have to wash their shame with blood,” Dr. Sarwari said.
Actually, in this view there is no shame in the rape for the men. Any woman who is raped is responsible for the rape, because she provoked and tempted the man. The shame is all on her. That’s why the shame of the family is considered to have been cleansed once she is killed.
The doctor took the girl away to the shelter. Afterward, Dr. Sarwari and several women’s affairs officials were threatened by the girl’s family, and by other mullahs. “They call me and curse me, and threaten to kill me and my family, and say they know where I live,” Dr. Sarwari said. “They say, once your American husbands leave Afghanistan, we will do what we want to you.” (Her husband is an Afghan doctor and war veteran.)
Dr. Sarwari has accused prosecutors and religious officials of siding with the accused rapist and ignoring the child’s plight.
“There are a lot of powerful people behind the mullah,” Dr. Sarwari said. The girl’s family knows they cannot do anything to Mr. Amin, she said, but “the girl is easy. They can get to her; she’s their daughter.” She said she feared the girl would either be killed, or forced to recant her accusations against the mullah.
Women for Afghan Women arranged for the girl to get medical treatment, and after she healed, she was returned to the shelter in Kunduz, about two weeks ago, until the police returned her to her family last Tuesday. Those caring for the girl said she had been terribly homesick and wanted to return to her family, but no one had the heart to tell her they had been conspiring to kill her.

Yes, but. On topic, if this is ‘forensically’ (?) documented, I recommend sending a copy of the dossier to Hamid Karzai and the two contestants for his job. It should be suggested that this crime, and similar ones do to mohammedanism’s image what Russia’s shoot down of MH17 does for Russia. Maybe one can suggest to them that this is seen by the approximately 80% of the world which is thankfully not mohammedan but civilized, as bestial savagery and worse.
If they would all agree to do something civilized, even if it’s against The Book of Hate™, they could deliver a message that if the evil imam were not immediately stoned to death, her family imprisoned and the girl protected, the entire village would be razed. Or how about all postpubertal males (crotch check) would be decapitated, the prepubs sold as bacha baz and the females variously sold as slaves or whores. The whole to be recorded for distribution across Afghanistan.
A bit rough? There is historical precedence.
In the meantime, throw a triple concertina razor wire around the village, and inform them of their approaching Armageddon if they proceed.
General Sir Charles James Napier, the Commander-in-Chief in India from 1859 to 1861 is often noted for a story involving Hindu priests complaining to him about the prohibition of sati by British authorities.
“Be it so. This burning of widows is your custom; prepare the funeral pile. But my nation has also a custom. When men burn women alive we hang them, and confiscate all their property. My carpenters shall therefore erect gibbets on which to hang all concerned when the widow is consumed. Let us all act according to national customs.”
EYESOPEN says
Absolutely JayBoo. I’m with you on this. These miserable vermin have no concept of what true “honor” is, just as they have no concept of Who is the One True God Almighty.
This story sickens and saddens me because I could have told them this crap would continue even before Bush’s idiotic Wilsonian “crusade”. May Almighty God have mercy on the soul of this poor little girl. (I deleted the prayer I wanted to add so as not to reflect badly on Robert Spencer or Jihad Watch.)

Kudos to people both in Afghanistan and outside that see that fundamental change is needed and who condemn the rules that lead to this result. What is inexcusable is the leftist so-called feminists that do not condemn the ideology that permits this, i.e. Islam.
The article conveys the reality very well–there are tears. Why? Because the girl is dishonored and her life has been ruined. There is a stark logic to this. We are to believe that for the family she is better dead than dishonored. In fact, being dishonored she has no place anymore among the living. Very tragic.
Think about the hundred or thousands of children raped by Catholic Priests and the ways in which the clergy has attempted to hide this. In contrast, in the Afghan world, the clergy does not hide. Islamic ideology is savage, barbaric, backward, and misogynist.
Johncs says
what about the hundreds or thousands that are raped by teachers, protestant reverends, or their own parents/step-parents … or do you only have Priests in mind? Either way, Islam is not about love or kindness or holding men accountable. That father is a coward.
Jovial Joe says
They will say this is a ‘cultural’ matter and not Islam. Assuming this is correct (which we know, given Mohammad’s example, it is not), the response must be: what are the Islamic authorities, which predominate in that ‘culture’, doing to end the practice of honor killings? What pressure are they bringing to bear? What Surahs and Hadiths are being cited in opposing this? Of course, nothing is being done and none are being cited. Islam is therefore guilty of the greatest sin of omission possible (although really the sin is one of commission). There is nothing ‘cultured’ about inflicting such evil; it is murderous hatred, pure and simple.

CogitoErgoSum says
The concept of forgiveness is totally alien to Islam. Revenge and “getting even” are foremost. Even victims must be punished if necessary to appease the god of vengeance. Muhammad’s response to every perceived insult or injury was an even greater insult or injury in return …..or death. If a man is covered in dust he will not become clean by bathing himself with more dust. The followers of Islam are lost in a parched and barren desert with no flowing waters of revitalization and purification. It is a smoldering place that burns without mercy. A metaphor for Islam can be seen in J.R.R. Tolkein’s great dragon, Smaug, and in that beast’s words, “I am fire. I am death.” Islam is the great dragon. Islam is fire. Islam is death.
boakai ngombu says
Tragic it is that the knowledge of forgiveness and reconciliation to The Righteous One is alien to Islam.
This imam has need to repent of terrible infraction against the Law given Moses, having received it directly from the Unique God, full of grace and truth. To that end I would imprecate that if it be His will, this imam would encounter some jinn.
That first there would be jinn al-Shriv’l, which would wad’is dick and forever remind him of his cruel thrusts into the innocent victim of his lust. What is it that seeks to damage humans irreparably?
That second there would be jinn al-‘airTrigure, which would cause him to ejaculate when a woman – any woman – was near. Thus he could rarely come pray because his linens and cloaks would be in cleaning. He … dibbling along, jes sayin … would then loose respect and power to claim innocence to the mislead followers of Muhammad (lately contrived; a grotesque character, full of lusts).
That third there would be jinn al-Gaps, which would cause him to forget words, even portions, of the Nobel Koran so he could no longer lead others of the mosque into the lies of the Allah god of Islam (unknowable; the best of all deceivers; friend of murderers and rapists).
That fourth there could comealong sister jinn Millstone, which would hang on him and drive him out onto the sea of sand, until a nameless human would give him a drink of water and tell him TRUTH about Jesus, so that he might believe and be saved by the Savior, even though brothers would kill him for apostasy, even though Millstone would cover him.

Mullahs and Roman Catholic priests have much in common. One set rapes little girls; the other set rapes little boys. So we have a diseased society in the West as well. Both sets (by a law created by me) deserve to be castrated with infected knives and left to suffer in cold dark rooms until they die. Then our societies will be more cleansed from disease, and little boys and little girls can go out and play and swing and pick daisies, daffodils, and tulips to beautify their rooms.

I like dogs but sometimes they do bite. If a dog bites a child should all dogs be put to death? Many years ago I was once an altar boy. The priests for whom I served Mass were kind and decent men. However, I realize sometimes some priests do commit very bad sins. Should I hate all priests and renounce my faith because of that? To me it does not seem logical to do so. The scandal in the Catholic Church is due to the failings of some priests and some of their superiors, Mark….. but not all. Pederasty should not be covered up and priests accused of the crime should be reported to the proper legal authorities for a fair trial. If found guilty they should serve the proper punishment and be barred from all situations that place them in contact with children…which would include serving as a parish priest. Some in the Church have much for which to answer in the pederasty scandals …. but fairness and justice should prevail on all sides.
Mirren10 says
I think you fail to note the **intrinsic** difference here.
Yes, exploitation, sexual and otherwise, of the vulnerable, is not, unfortunately, confined to any one society, culture, or class of people. Alas.
However, in Western societies, such foul evil is designated as what it is, a *crime* against innocents, and is punished accordingly.
Yes, it took the Catholic Church a long while to address this foulness, but give them credit for the fact that they *are* now, however belatedly, addressing it, and *prosecuting* those ‘priests’ involved.
Is such action to be observed, in the *islamic* world ?
No. Instead, we see that this poor little child is delivered back to her vile, murderous *family*, by the *police* !!
Not to mention the so-called ‘Shelters’ which also gave her back to her tormentors.
Would this happen within the Catholic Church ? Within the West ? I think not.

I meant priestcraft: the Mass. I committed a very rare typo. Forgive me. I spoke generally in that comment, not particularly. It is interesting that when I put pedophile priests in the same league as Muslim pedophiles, Catholics take offense. It is true that neither Christianity nor Catholicism teaches pedophilia, as does the Koran. I would stand corrected on that, but I never made such a claim. I said that Roman priests and Mullahs have much in common, which they do. All pedophiles have much in common with each other: pedophile fantasies, pedophile literature, pedophile pictures, pedophile acts, and hopefully, a judgment and death that befits a pedophile. Do you want to defend Romish pedophiles some more?

By the way, I am not REMOTELY Catholic. So can take that assumption elsewhere as well.

Yes, I am commenting on my own comment because there is no edit feature. That comment, because I was not careful enough grammatically, makes it look like I would have all Mullahs and priests castrated and left to die. No, I would have this happen to all Mullahs and priests who are guilty of raping minors. And there is some hyperbole here, for I would be influenced to punish evildoers more clinically than my comment indicates. Let’s be careful what we say. Let’s correct ourselves when correction is called for.

The US troops and America’s NATO allies shed much blood to rid and free the people of Afghanistan form the tyranny of the Taliban. Now of all things, many of the now freed people in Afghanistan are now behaving just like, as in just and evil and cruel as the Taliban. As shown in this above article. Ho, the folly and madness of it all.
Walter Sieruk says
It’s the extreme misogyny of Islam that is the cause of all these evil that hascome upon this young helpless girl. The is the essence of Islam produces a terrible misogynist mind set the many Muslim males. Furthermore is absurd, wrong evil and more then a great miscarriage to blame and punish the victim who was raped and not to blame and punish the rapist. This awful way of thing is because of the influence of Islam. Moreover, in the book entitled FOR GOD OR FOR TYRANNY on page 270 exposes the power anti- femaleness of Islam against both girls and women. For it reads “The hatred of women in Islamic society is so immense that even if a woman is raped she is stoned to death.” This type if unfair, heartless,heinous and brutal type of things happen in may Muslim countries because this is the fruit of Islam. In addition ,the Bible has teaching concerning this type of thing. For example, the Bible in Proverbs 17:15. reads “The Lord hates two things, punishing the guilty and letting the guilty go free.” [E.R.V.]
Paul Harding says
“Acquitting the guilty and condemning the innocent…..the Lord detests them both.” Proverbs 17:15 KJV
“He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the Lord.” KJV
” The Lord hates these two things: punishing the innocent and letting the guilty go free.” ERV

Lets us go back when Hagar ran away; The angel of the Lord said, “You will have a boy and his name will be Ishmael and he will be as a Wild Donkey and his hand will be against everyone and everyone’s hand will be against him.” SO… Their Destiny has been set by GOD and they have been trying to live up to this… Don’t you agree?
dumbledoresarmy says
I think you’re pushing that text too far.
YHWH is not a puppetmaster. There is no such thing as Kismet or Fate in the Bible, no such thing as an inexorable or inevitable Destiny. Talk about “Destiny” is Islamic thinking, not Christian or Jewish thinking.
Jesus died to save Arabs, just as much as to save any other people on earth; read the description of the day of Pentecost, it mentions “Arabs” who were among the crowd of pilgrims in Jerusalem (presumably they were God-fearers, or else proselytes).
In any case: ethnically, these people in Afghanistan are not Ishmael’s descendants. They have embraced a cult that was invented by Arabs, that’s all; *some* of whom may have been connected with Ishmael, though I understand it’s not at all certain. Their (these Afghans’) ancestors were Zoroastrians, Buddhists, Hindus or animists. Perhaps there were even Jews or Nestorian Christians in the mix as well. For all we know, among this poor child’s long-ago ancestors – Before Islam – there may have been Jews and Christians.
Don’t write these people off as created/ born *only* in order to be destroyed, created-for-evil; PRAY for their exorcism and deliverance from evil. Pray, specifically, that this poor, poor little girl will encounter Jesus in a vision or a dream (such things have happened, before now).

Afghanistan: Mullah rapes 10-year-old girl in mosque, her family plans honor killing for her, police return her to her family
……………………………..
This *poor little girl*. Raped by her “spiritual leader”, then murderously betrayed by her own family—those who should love and protect her—and, finally, betrayed again by those who would be her protectors in a civil society.
The only place she found haven—temporarily—was at the women’s shelter. Bless then, at least, for trying to save this child.
And this is Afghanistan *after thirteen years* of America and the West trying to offer that cess-pit the chance to become civilized. Yes—they made ham-fisted mistakes, like failing to recognize what Islam trumping all in the Afghan constitution really signified.
But it would likely have been a fool’s errand, in any case. And now we have the “civil authorities”—the police—handing a little raped child over to her owners so that they can sacrifice her to their “honor”.
There *is no honor* in Islam.
More:
“People know this office as the Americans’ office,” Dr. Sarwari said. “They all think the shelter is an American shelter. There isn’t a single American here,” she said.
“W.A.W. is not American-run,” said Manizha Naderi, its executive director. “Every single staff member is an Afghan. They are from the communities we work in. Our only concern is to make sure women and girls are protected and that they get justice.”
……………………………..
I feel for Dr. Sarwari, but she should not be surprised. *Of course* protecting girls and women and seeing that they get justice is perceived as American—certainly, these are not *Muslim* virtues.
God, I hate Islam.
Kepha says
Honestly, I really want to scream about this. For this we wasted a few thousand young American and allied lives?
Kepha says
This is disgusting.
Frankly, apart from the equal pay for equal work meme and believing that women should enjoy a reasonable expectation of safety when they go out, Uncle Kepha has little use for the feminist movement, seeing it as a way men and women are made into rivals or even enemies rather than being seen as complementary to each other.
However, it is utterly disgusting that the family of this young rape victim are thinking of honor killing her, and this sex-crazed mullah gets off with a slap on the wrist. I yearn for the day when America once again becomes a land where a man like that mullah would get capital punishment (after due process of law, of course). He truly is a 该死的王八蛋。
Bridget Ames says
First off there is nothing sanctified about a mosque, Second if anyone from the west were to say and do these things they would be flayed alive. This just shows you what a backwards mentality these people have, unable to even follow natural law. A small child should not be the mode for any man, but this is just too common over there. It would be interesting to hear a pedophile here claim it was the victim’s fault, majority of people would tear him a new one.
Mo says
What a DEMONIC ideology this is! Why on earth does anyone continue to (willingly) follow it?!
Islam needs to be classified as a political ideology not a religions ideology. And then it needs to be officially BANNED in every civilized country. No more mosques should be built. Those that already exist need to be monitored by the authorities. If there are jihadist ties found or if hatred is being preached there, then close them down.
If, after it’s banned, people want to follow it then there’s nothing that can be done about that. (Just like I’m sure people still follow the KKK or Nazism or other abhorrent ideologies.)
But there’s something about social shaming that I think can be positive at times. People are generally embarrassed about things like the KKK or Nazism, even if perhaps they secretly agree with them. It’s just not something people admit to in public. That is what needs to happen with Islam.
It sounds extreme, but that’s the point I’ve come to. There is absolutely NOTHING redeeming about this ideology. It offers nothing positive to any society. It brings only oppression, misery and death wherever it is practiced in the world – especially to Muslims!
Enough already. Enough of child rape. Enough of female genital mutilation. Enough of women being treated like property. Enough of children growing up with a passion for murdering Jews. Enough of children being bomb carriers or human shields. Enough of preschoolers repeating such murderous things that it makes you nauseous to see it. Enough of people being slaughtered for not being Muslim or not being a sufficiently “devout” Muslim. Enough of hangings and stonings and amputations and beheadings and people burned alive or thrown into pits.
Enough already.
It is time all civilized countries and individuals said ENOUGH!

Absolutely spot on Mo. ENOUGH.
