Why is Saif Mulook’s life in danger? Because he dared to defend a Christian woman from blasphemy charges. The Muslims who were demonstrating in Pakistan over the last few days and calling for the death of Asia Bibi don’t want non-Muslims to have any protection, any rights, any legal recourse, anything at all. And while Mulook has fled, the Pakistani government has barred Asia Bibi from leaving the country, so that Muslims may more easily find and murder her over her alleged “blasphemy.”
“Asia Bibi: Lawyer flees Pakistan in fear of his life,” BBC, November 3, 2018:
The lawyer representing a Christian woman acquitted of blasphemy after eight years on death row has fled Pakistan in fear for his life.
Saif Mulook told news agency AFP he had to leave so he could continue to represent Asia Bibi, whose conviction was overturned by judges on Wednesday.
Officials have since agreed to bar Ms Bibi from leaving Pakistan in order to end violent protests over the ruling.
Campaigners blasted the deal as akin to signing her “death warrant”.
Asia Bibi was convicted in 2010 of insulting the Prophet Muhammad during a row with neighbours, and many are calling for the reinstatement of the death penalty following her acquittal.
Mr Mulook told the BBC earlier this week she would need to move to a Western country for her own safety. A number of attempts have previously been made on her life.
Several countries have offered her asylum.
Pakistani Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry defended the government against allegations that a deal reached with an Islamist party was capitulating to extremists.
He said the government would “take all steps necessary” to ensure Asia Bibi’s safety.
Mr Mulook, however, called the agreement “painful”.
“They cannot even implement an order of the country’s highest court,” he told AFP before he boarded the plane to Europe.
Mr Mulook said he had decided to leave as it was “not possible” to continue living in Pakistan, adding: “I need to stay alive as I still have to fight the legal battle for Asia Bibi.”…

Can’t SOME high-tech nation get that woman and her family out of there? I’m sure the Swiss Guard has all kinds of projects for getting Imam Bergoglio out of life-threatening situations.
Also, as far as I know that Pakistani doctor who helped us nail Ben Laden is still caged. Can’t the U.S. government rescue him and his family, at least? And Trump should pull all U.S. aid (i.e. jizya) from Pakistan. They can get help from their oil-bearing pals.
Renee says
Yes, I have been wondering exactly the same. And also, I hope the USA will sanction Pakistan for this, no more money to Pakistan. Yes, SA is able to send murderers into another country and capture people there, Russia as well. Can the USA use their power for good to free those suffering so much…..Help Mr President!
John W. Compton says
Christians are not a high priority,
For being rescued. There are exceptions, but it is not the norm.
Raja says
Agreed with Utis and Renee,
The situation is truly grim and needs immediate attention from the POTUS.
Thomas Arthur (sultan) says
Yes. Help Mr. President Donald Trump. You are also believed of Lord Jesus Christ. Please don’t allow those Muslim Satan’s to touch our sister Asia Bibi. Also teach very good lessons to Pakistan so in near future no pm or President could have guts to touch Christians. Poor country should not exist with their evil law called sharia. Kick out all Pakistani Muslims from USA. Ban all aids to Pakistan. Warn the world not to aid Pakistan. Job done. Let them fight each other and let them eat their own flesh.

Yes–I hope the US can get her and her family out of Pakistan.

Hungary and to a great extent Poland might be a decent place. Other than that he can be safe only in the afterlife.

This is how you “stay safe”:
There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.” – Luke 13:1-5
“The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.” – Mark 1:15

Yes, I have–and have regularly condemned the Islamization of Europe.
There is nowhere in Europe that is a far gone as Pakistan, though.

I have been predicting this would happen. It is possible some of the Supreme Court justices will also have to flee.
How much does it take for Muslims to admit that ISLAM IS DYSFUNCTIONAL and creates DYSFUNCTIONAL SOCIETIES?
I do not believe that most Muslims are this stupid. They are brainwashed into TUNNEL VISION by Islam, but they are not too CRAZY to realize that ATTACKING LAWYERS and JUDGES DOING THEIR JOBS is not going to make Pakistan a STABLE, PRODUCTIVE PLACE TO LIVE.
Islam makes Pakistan A CHAOTIC MESS.
Guy Forester says
Dear Mort,
It should be painfully obvious by now for all that are willing to see and able to see it, that the Pakis DO NOT want a safe, stable, and productive place to live. They want an Islamic paradise. Unfortunately, the two ideas are diametrically opposed, so they choose the mirage of Islamic paradise over the reality of a stable country.
Since these brainwashed and ignorant masses choose such a paradise, they need to flee to the US, Australia, NZ, or EU in order to have the kind of life that we think of , including such luxuries as running water and flush toilets. They then force their new homeland to accept the failed ideology of the new arrivals, making the new home a westernized version of crap hole-istan.

Mortimer, yes there are some intelligent Muslims, however the average IQ in Pakistan is 84.

This lawyer of Pakistan who help that Christian get acquitted on “blasphemy” charges now,for his own life is escaping Pakistan and the whole of the Middle East obtain safe-haven in Europe.
Le’st all hope ,and maybe even pray ,that he will be safe in Europe .
Nevertheless, the malice-filled and dangerous jihad-minded Muslims are in many different places around the world-, even in Europe.
For those Muslim migrants who were allowed to enter the different countries of Western Europe with result in them not only being ungrateful but even worse yet many of those Muslim migrants becoming so very arrogant to the point that they became criminals . As in some of them engaged in rioting and even rapes of the European girls and women. In addition to this vile brutal behavior by the heinous Muslim who were kindly permitted to enter the nations of Europe to live, As the countries of ,for example France, Germany Sweden, Denmark etc. This unthankful Islamic spirit on the part of those lawless violent Muslims who immigrated to the countries of Europe may be explain, in part, by the fact that the Muslim fundamentalist group that even had the president of Egypt assassinated in the month of October of the year 1981 has a fifty –five booklet that is was written only for Muslims fundamentalists but was later discover by non-Muslims. This booklet’s title is THE NEGLECTED DUTY. One scholar, Johannes Jansen who had thoroughly investigated Islam and Islamic terrorism has even discover that those Muslims, who had entered Europe of behaved in violent and heinous ways, are actually action out what they view and a sacred individual duty of the jihad as by engaging in awful violent criminal action in non-Muslim lands . As Jansen revealed that jihad booklet of Islam, THE NEGLECTED DUTY “contains all the ideological material needed to justify the attacks of 9/11 or any other acts of terror committed to frighten non-Muslims. And he thinks the document explains the criminal behavior of suburban and center –city immigrant youngsters in many European cities; its author clearly ‘sees Islam as license to kill rob and commit arson.’ “ [1] Nevertheless, many of the apologists for Islam still have that blatant gall , in spite of all the facts of reality, to actually make the claim the Islam is a “peaceful religion.” What a totally false to make that Islam is “a peaceful religion “What Bull! A “peaceful religion” indeed.

Renee says
Also, the brave lawyer taking a deep bow for him!
Keith says
I wonder if any Western government or any of our MSM have asked themselves the question of why has her lawyer had to flee the country and why is she not being allowed out of jail even though she has been aquitted of the so called crime of blasphemy.
Guy Forester says
Is her plight even covered by the MSM?
Clock boy and the pali girl that kicked an Israeli border guard get headlines and are covered ad nauseam on TV.
Walter Sieruk says
The difference between the Jewish cultural way of thinking and way of behaving outstanding in contrast to the Muslim “cultural” way of thinking and way of behaving is outstanding.
For example concerning a man who in the Jewish behave to a man who they view as a traitor and the way many Muslims behave towards a man they view is a traitor is interesting.
As for radical lawyer in New York City, William Kunstler he defended a Muslim murderer of a rabbi and at another time on another case he defended the jihadist/Muslims who carried out the first World Trade Center bombing attack in the year 1983, Likewise, Kunstler even defended “the blind sheik” Imam Omar Abdel Rahman, who incited and put those Muslim terrorists up to the bombing. . The Jewish reaction the this awful man ,Kunstler , by the way Kunstler was Jewish, was to gather in a group in front of his law office and march and hold signs the had the words printed “Kunstler is a Traitor’ likewise they also yelled those words out toward his office hoping that he will hear them. This non-violent protest against him was as for as it got as a reaction his him and his actions.
By terrible contrast many of the Muslims in Pakistan viewed the Pakistan /Muslim lawyer as a “traitor .” For defending and clearing away the charges against that Christian woman of “blasphemy” against Islam. Therefore many Muslims who have made death threats and very much want to kill the defense lawyer r of that Christian woman. So much so that his lawyer literally feared for his life that he fled to Europe for safe-haven.
In conclusion thee is vast and great difference between Jewish way and the Muslims way of handling a “traitor, or any matter they consider an subject that is important

Walter,
Wasn’t the world trade center bombed in the year 1993?

Walter Sieruk says
To Raja , yes you are right . This is a case that I had known the right year but ,by accident , pushed the wrong keyboard number and didn’t notice my error .Thank you for the fact check.
By the way , that radical left wing lawyer, William Kunstler , was indeed a very despicable man.
Raja says
Thanks, Walter for your reply. Yes, these “hard” left hardly have any brain left worth the size. They don’t question or seek God hence is a such a mess in life. They are so miserable that they won’t give a “glass of water”r to the thirsty.
I have seen you post your insights in other sites too.
Would encourage you to keep ’em short for the convenience of the visitors.

If he’s a Muslim—likely not.
And (IMO) it would be even less likely for Hungary to bring in a refugee who will require round the clock protection–at taxpayer expense.
PRCS says
What a quandary.
If she manages to get out of Shi*holeistan, brain dead, booger eating moronic members of the ROP might track her down and “carry out God’s law” anyway.
And other members of that same moronic belief system will take out their–then–even greater rage on Pakiland’s kuffar minorities.

I think there are many of us here in the US that would love to have this lady and her family as neighbors. We could then have a real neighborhood watch. Texas would be a good place to consider, just not in Dallas or Austin.

So where is Pope Dopey the Dhimmi? I would have thought he would be out in front defending this innocent Christian woman against the howling Islamic mobs.
Well, not really.
FYI says
francis might prefer to give sanctuary to a muslim family instead since he is pro-islam.
Besides,he is far too busy NOT listening,as the “listening pope” of the “listening church” to the cries of the persecuted Christians.
Just look at his twitter posts to see how far francis is removed from reality.

He’s busy piling up God’s wrath upon his treacherous head.
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them. The hireling flees because he is a hireling and does not care about the sheep.” – John 10:11-13
WPM says
Pope Frank is busy washing Moslem feet, condemning western civilization for being insensitive to invading hordes of violent Jihads who the left call refugees. He is busy worrying about globe warming, “rich people “in the west he thinks are “mean” ,while Christians are being slaughter in the Middle East , Asia, Africa and now Europe because they are Christian. He tweets we need smiling Christians ,what we need is a Pope with a back bone that would at least condemn this Jihad being carry out .He is guard 24 hours a day in a palace ,he can at least speak up for the unarmed sheep being killed every day in villages around the world by Islam, in the name of Islam according to the books and instructions of Islam. This women, her lawyer, her family are all living under death threat he could at least publicly condemn it for being wrong. When he dies what do you think God will judge him on washing someone,s dirty feet for a photo shoot {no danger to him}or condemning this angry mob that want to kill this women and her family only because she is Christian

Just horrifying. I’m glad Saif Mulook got out–I just hope Asia Bibi is able to get out as well.

I guess LEBEL agrees that ASIA BIBI is a dirty KAFIR and LEBEL agrees that KAFIRS deserve to be abused.

I like the term Pope Dopey by John Hawk.
I think pope is is too much into realpolitik. He knows too well he is hated by the Muslims for being a flockkeeper of the catholics who are sizable in number.I have heard firsthand from a Muslim attorney who called him biggest evil on earth.
The “pope” does not care about anything under the sun save his management of the flock that it is way of the mark with regard to the doctrine of God.
Peter says
Everyone on this blog site should lobby their local Members of Parliament, Members of Congress or State Senators for Asia to be allowed to leave Pakistan. The only ones in a position to secure Asia’s safety now are Western Governments lobbying the Government of Pakistan directly. Consider this, Conservative Government’s across the West should be receptive to your approaches because here we have a genuine refugee who desperately needs our help. It is a great opportunity for your local Member to demonstrate genuine compassion for someone who is in fear for her life, instead of the usual hollow virtue signalling we get in relation to dubious economic refugees. Do something about it. Write a letter or email today. With a bit of luck you will be able to make a difference.

Not many Westerners know the history of Islamic depredation in India, which continues to this day. I can suggest two books (of many books) that will shed light 1400 years of Islamic blood shedding against non-Muslim around the world; these books cover the Indian sub continent. 1) Islamic Imperialism by Ephriam Karsh, 2) The History of Jihad From Mohammed to Isis by Robert Spencer. I suggest that interested persons read Karsh first as an overall picture, and follow it up with Robert Spencer,

Yes–India suffered more from Islamic depredation than perhaps any other land–which is saying a great deal.

Where there is no freedom. Everything is blocked. Anarchy prevails, disorder, confusion. And it is the empire of the ignorant, who believe that their power is legitimate. For a divine mandate -of his god invented-.
That blockade is everywhere. Because, it is the ‘me’ the blocker. And we all have ego, ‘I’.
revereridesagain says
We have blasphemy laws still on the books in several states right here in this country, including Massachusetts. (No, they don’t apply it to calling Senator Warren “Liawatha”. Fortunately.) They are not enforced because they are archaic and violate the First Amendment. But neither can they be removed because of the yowling that goes up from the various faithful at any attempt to do so. But we do have our First Amendment protection. In Asia Bibi’s case we see what happens when they are the law of the land. Think of what greater danger there is to Western countries flirting with Sharia that have no First Amendment-equivalent protection. Already they will not even raise a finger — or their voices — to save this woman from this barbarity.
Where are the Social Justice Warrior churches and aid organizations screaming for millions of “refugees” (preferably Muslim) to be admitted on any flimsy reason. Will none of them stand up for her?
gravenimage says
Most of the time it is not opposition that leads to these archaic laws not being removed from the books–can you point to any examples? There is just usually not much reason to remove them, since no one is suffering from their enforcement in any case.

A prediction:
“Here is the news. A Christian woman who was recently cleared of violating Pakistan’s blasphemy laws was killed by a mob today. She had been seeking asylum in the West, but had been denied this because of the controversy it would have caused.
And in other news, a man who brought a ham sandwich to a mosque has been jailed for five years. The judge, when sentencing him, expressed his deep sympathy for the Muslim community, saying: ‘We must not tolerate any trace of Islamophobia in our society.'”
