Top immigration officials in Canada and Pakistan say all they can do is reject the sponsorships of husbands trying to bring their child-brides to Canada. The men have to reapply when the bride turns 16. The marriages are permitted under Sharia Law.

Obviously that was not good enough for the followers of the religion of war, as they have now slaughtered 500 more Christians. If Muslim immigration is not stopped in non-Islamic countries, it is just a matter of time until the Islamic attacks on non-Muslims ratchets up to this level. You can count on it.

As we reported last year, the California Department of Education believes that “Islamic law, for example, rejected the older Arabian view of women as ‘family property,’ declaring that women and men are entitled to respect and moral self-governance.” More recently, Samira H.
