Today’s American Thinker<\/a> has an update on what is happening in the case of Rifqa Bary.  Rifqa was the Muslin teenager who converted to Christianity then fled to Florida because she feared for her safety.  The Florida court returned Rifqa to Ohio and placed her in foster care with the hope of eventually reuniting her with her parents.  The update is on Rifqa’s situation, but also on the apparent bias of the reporter covering the story.<\/p>\n

The American Thinker article points out that the courts are ignoring Islamic Law, which states that if a person who has left Islam does not return to the religion, he is to be killed.  It doesn’t sound to me as if that leaves a lot of room for negotiation.<\/p>\n

Rifqa has been kept pretty much in isolation.  The few visitors she is permitted are fingerprinted.  <\/p>\n

The article points out:<\/p>\n

“Hussein Wario, a native of Kenya and, like Rifqa, an apostate from Islam, tells the truth that Heagney ignores: “I am very concerned for Rifqa. If the judge reunites her with her family, you know that she will either be severely persecuted or killed here in the United States or elsewhere. An ardent Muslim father would rather kill his child in order to preserve his family from ridicule (from fellow Muslims) than see him or her alive. Mr. Mohamed Bary would be hailed as a hero to Muslims if he were to carryout-God forbid-Islamic judgment on Rifqa because she refuses to revert to Islam.””<\/em><\/font><\/div>\n

I understand that the goal of the court is to reunite Rifqa with her parents, but I am not convinced that is a realistic goal in this case.  We as Americans need to take a good look at the Muslim views on religious freedom.  Honor killings are a way of life in Muslin countries.  It is foolish to believe that a Muslim population that has refused to assimilate in this country would not also practice honor killings here.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
