A glimpse into the future of the U.S. This can’t happen here, you say? We respect the freedom of speech, you say? Maybe that was true at one time, but it is no longer. Cowardice is pandemic. Newspapers all over the country refused to republish the notorious Muhammad cartoons out of a newfound “respect” for Islam that they never showed for negative portrayals of Christianity, which they hailed as “courageous.” Those who call attention to the ideological roots of jihad violence are excoriated as racist, bigoted “Islamophobes,” and most organizations on both the Left and the Right would never dare feature such people as speakers. Any organization that does is immediately denounced and called upon to apologize, and it usually does. So given that this is the climate today, what do you think the situation will be like in ten or twenty years?
“PUNISHABLE BY DEATH Saudi man faces BEHEADING over video clip of somebody stepping on the Quran just days before Ramadan,” by Patrick Knox, The Sun, April 22, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
A MAN in Saudi Arabia could face the death penalty after he was arrested over this clip of a foot stepping on the Quran just days before Ramadan.
The man, who has not been named, reportedly uploaded the clip to social media where it was widely shared in the Gulf state.
In the video, a Quran can be seen being thrown to the floor and stepped on with a bare foot.
The clip was reportedly uploaded to an Instagram account which proclaimed “repentance” in its bio section and the only upload was the video.
It remains unclear whether the man who shared the clip was the man in the footage.
Reports said the video caused outrage in Saudi Arabia with some calling for the person responsible arrest and death.
Those found guilty of apostasy — abandoning their religious belief — face the death penalty in Saudi Arabia where strict blasphemy laws remain.
It is unclear if the suspect has been charged….

Really Caroline I struggle to understand your English or indeed your posts. Please if you have something to say please say it coherently.

Ecosse, for some reason Carolyn is obsessed by the tiny biblical tribe of the Kenites.
This tribe was not particularly nefarious and was often friendly to the Israelites. Moses’ father-in-law Jethro was a Kenite.
There is a theory, first expounded by a few Biblical scholars in the late 19th century, that the etymology of the word “Kenites” came from Cain (Kain), and that he was the founder of the tribe. There is little reason to think this save for the similarity of the names.
I suppose Carolyn is using “kenites” as a synonym for “evil”–certainly, the Kenite tribe had nothing whatsoever to do with Islam.
I have to admit this all seems pretty pointless.

Ta GI for the background
In Scotland “you ken “means to know. Though in this case i didn’t have a clue.

Thanks, Ecosse–I know about “ken”. My grandmother was lowland Scots and had the euphonious maiden name “Buttery”.

Many news media should use same explicit headline as you wrote then only people will get aware of reality of Saudi Arabia and Islam

if you step on the book of peace you must be killed. Totally reasonable, surely?
Thomas f Mills says
Book of Pease. Bull Shit. There are so many versions of this, all phoney. During my years in the ME I was given several translated korans .All were totally incorrect
gravenimage says
How are they “incorrect”? All the translations of the Qur’an read the same way, with just slight variations in word choice. Are you saying that every single translator of the Qur’an got it wrong in exactly the same way?
keith says
Wonder what the reaction would be if you uploaded a video of the koran being used as toilet paper?
“The Koran, now in two ply”.

Saudi Arabia: Man faces beheading for video of someone stepping on a Qur’an
………………………….
Just grotesque, but no surprise. Why are we still pretending these thugs are our allies?
And remember just a few short months ago when even some posters at Jihad Watch were excited by the widespread reforms they fancifully foresaw for Saudi Arabia?

Guess MSB says he stopped flogging, how about beheading also???? or is that going against the grain too much???????
Jayell says
All this defensive paranoia from muslims when their religion is challenged in any way reminds me of the stock reaction of the the career villain who know’s he’s guilty as hell so asserts his ‘innocence’ aggressively when he thinks he’s going to be found out. So if these muslims subconsciously realise that they’re basically no more than a load of frauds, that would confirm criminal deceit as part off their catalogue of sins. (OK, so we already know that dishonesty and deceit are specifically condoned in their excuse for a ‘creed’, so that in turn confirms that, for muslims, basic morality is just completely off the radar). And if they really don’t have any suspicion that they’re not the ‘real article’, they’re absolutely beyond hope.and completely useless for any meaningful interaction in legitimate Western society.

video of koran-treading – unacceptable: death penalty by beheading.
video of beheading – all fine and dandy.
Such are the values of Islam.

+1.

Oh yes the CULT Islam once again showing its total mind controlling ideology of murdering anyone that is not in full agreement with it. Can you even imagine how many people will be killed world wide if Islamic dictators are able to take rule of our world?

So, in the Western sense, did the accused commit a religious act or a political act? Quite a conundrum?

The true nature of the vicious recidivist cult that is islam has been obvious for a very long time. It’s well PAST time that those afflicted by the disease of political correctness had their eyes pried open and their mouths sewn shut.
