Homosexuality – punishable by death (Norway)
http://www.aftenposten.no ^

Posted on 08/04/2008 6:04:07 AM PDT by marthemaria

The Norwegian Islamic Council is still waiting for a reply from the European Fatwa Council before it decides whether or not it is in favour of the death penalty for homosexuality. "Unacceptable," says lesbian Sara Asmeh Rasmussen.

Last November the Norwegian Islamic Council asked the European fatwa council what attitude it should have to homosexuals.

The fatwa council, which debates questions of Muslim faith and doctrine, had its annual meeting in Paris three weeks ago, but did not discuss the subject, according to daily newspaper Dagsavisen.

"It's wrong of the Islamic Council to wait for the "verdict" from the fatwa council in such an important case. By not saying 'no' to death penalties for gays, it shows attitudes that conflict with both democratic and humanitarian values," says Sara Azmeh Rasmussen. She is the only openly lesbian Muslim in Norway.

The head of the Norwegian Islamic Council, Senaid Kobilica, is not worried that the fatwa council will decide in favour of the death penalty. "I'm 100 percent certain that the fatwa council will not come out in favour something which conflicts with European law. The council wasn't able to deal with the question of homosexuality this time, but it thinks that subject is quite relevant and wants to look at the matter more," says Kobilica.

The Islamic Council, which represents 60,000 Muslims in Norway, is still not willing to say whether it is for or against the death penalty for homosexuals, until the fatwa council has spoken.

"It's very important to have the European fatwa council with us in difficult matters like this. I am not in favour of the death penalty, but there are Islamic texts that various people understand differently. This is why we need to know the attitude of the authority before we make a decision," says Kobilica.

Europe made a huge mistake by allowing people from this death cult to immigrate. Now that many are citizens it will be hard to get rid of them and given their birthrate compared to that of the Euros and the fact that many have no intention of assimilating I think much of Europe could be under sharia law before the century is up.

“I’m 100 percent certain that the fatwa council will not come out in favour something which conflicts with European law.” Really?

Islamic law does not respect other legal systems.

Slavery is still legal under Islamic law. The laws of Mohammed cannot be changed by mere men. This is why the cult of Islam must be cast aside and “followers” should return to the original Bible or start their own religion.

So sad the Europeans had to be the ones who fell for this social experiment that has gone horribly wrong.

What the hell is wrong with the europeans? Are they all blind as well as stupid? The EU is going to be islamified and one day they’ll wake up to sharia law and not a single shot will be fired. The islamofacists will do what Roman Empire, the Holy Roman Empire, the Austro-Hungarian empire, Napoleon, Hitler, and Stalin, and Kruschev could not do...........

Don't take too hard of a stand there, Sara.

As Rush says: "We couldn't make this stuff up!"

If this were not so terrible, it would be hilarious. Isn't the grotesque a combination of the funny and the horrible?

Say...pass the popcorn over here...

I wonder if the UN Human Rights Council is going to come down hard on these cavemen for calling for the death of a protected class?

Maybe Islam is destined to save Western Civilization from its decadence. Islamists are certainly not in doubt, and they have no crisis of confidence.

Maybe this is the subconscious wish of the decadent Western Left. Maybe their secret death-wish is a subconscious wish for the death of Western decadence, self-doubt, and uncertainty. In one sweeping stroke, Islam offers to remove it all and replace it with certainty.

You can't say that decadent Westerners don't deserve exactly what they're in for, but, if they were not such a bunch of self-deluded, self-righteous, self-congratulatory, degenerate slobs, determined to drag everyone else down the Road to Hell along with them and their "good intentions"--you could almost feel sorry for them.

Gays and Lesbians here in the USA who think the Democrats care about them and liberal policies are protecting then need to wake up

the USA must never give up our fight against these fascists.

Winston Churchill would say... never give up, never never never give up.

I know you mentioned you had not followed the story closely. But I’m telling you sure as I am sitting here that the whole Obama/Sinclair saga will make a helluva ‘whodunit’ novel when all is said and done. Whether or not you believe Sinclair or not(for the record, I definitely lean towards believing him), the gyrations that the Obamarroids have put him through is incredible. Everything from hacking his sites, to harrassing the ISPs, to posting blatant lies, to digging up and posting personal info on the posters to Sinclair’s site, to trying to tamper with court proceedings, to making veiled and not so veiled threats.

This Obama house of jokers needs to be exposed.

I don't believe Sinclair, but I do believe you are right about the latter part.

They can issue all the Fatwas they want, Europe has turned their back on God.

Come to America where your views are more widely shared.

Sara Azmeh Rasmussen. She is the only openly lesbian Muslim in Norway.

Obviously, Sara Azmeh is a moron.

Just out of curiosity, why don’t you believe him. If you are reading the Obamanuts anti-sinclair sites, you are reading alot of false junk.

At the rate Europe is currently going, I'd expect it to happen much more quickly than that, possibly on the order of 20 to 30 years.

That thought presumes, of course, that no popular uprising against the Islamification process happens. If such an uprising occurs, all bets are off as to the final outcome.

Well, it looks like tough times ahead for liberal secularists
in the Scandinavian countries. When the Muslims take over, and demographics are in their favor, there will be no contest.
