“I’ve been lead [sic] to believe that the UK government had concerns that her moving to the UK would cause security concerns and unrest among certain sections of the community and would also be a security threat to British embassies abroad which might be targeted by Islamist terrorists.” So Theresa May’s Britain is now allowing […]
Pakistan: Foreign Office spokesman says “no truth” in reports of Asia Bibi leaving the country — “it is fake news”
If Faisal is telling the truth and Asia Bibi, the Christian woman falsely accused of blasphemy and held on death row for eight years, hasn’t actually left the country, then it is likely that the Pakistani authorities are going to give her up as a sacrifice to the Islamic groups that are baying for her […]
