Aside from the Quran instructing Muslims to kill the infidels, there are a number of rules that Muslims and Muslim countries follow. One rule is a total intolerance for homosexuality. I am not talking about a simple objection to the lifestyle–I am talking about public hangings and throwing people off of rooftops. In America, all of us may not support the lifestyle, but I think we understand that we don’t murder people for it. Evidently, some people who booked a cruise did not understand Islamic law. They suffered the consequences.
On Monday, Townhall posted an article about a cruise of gay men whose ship was denied entry in Turkey and Egypt. Had they been better informed, they would not have been surprised by this.
The article reports:
Unfortunately, Turkish authorities canceled the stop, citing ‘moral standards’ and ‘family values’ as grounds. Leftists were outraged, including singer and actress Patti LuPone, who was scheduled to perform on the ship.
The cruise said the Scarlet Lady would instead dock in Egypt and stop in Cairo. That stop was canceled by Egyptian authorities on similar grounds. This was not a shock to this writer, who was just in Egypt in June. In fact, you’re not allowed to have ‘transgender’ markers on your passport, or Egypt will deny you entry into the country.
Cruise organizers claim they made the stops last year with no issues.
Now, the LGBTQ+ crowd has decided to blame President Trump for the choices made by Turkey and Egypt.
“As a gay man, it’s just really hard to hear. I know that this kind of prejudice is not new to these kind of countries and obviously I don’t wanna go anywhere that shares those kinds of views,” the man said. “But you just can’t help but feel that with this current administration, people around the world feel more emboldened to do these kinds of things. And it’s just really awful.
The article notes:
That’s what Islam always was, what it is, and what it always will be. President Trump didn’t ’embolden’ them. In fact, President Trump supported gay marriage before Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton jumped on that bandwagon.
And it’s important gays who aren’t radical Leftists realize what the radical Left is enabling here. Islam is not kind to gays, and with Islamists gaining hold in the U.K. and U.S., it will end badly for the LGBTQ+ community.
Gays for Palestine is one of the most naive groups in the world. If they lived in a Muslim country, they would be hung or thrown off of a building. Having a gay pride parade in Gaza would result in the participants being gunned down. In Israel the parade would be allowed. I think the LGBTQ+ community is on the wrong side of the fence on this one.
