CNS News<\/a> reported yesterday the Republicans and Democrats<\/a> in the Senate have unanimously approved a resolution demanding the \u201cimmediate and unconditional release\u201d of Meriam Ibrahim and her two children from the Sudanese prison where they are being held because Meriam refuses to renounce her Christian faith<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Ibrahim, the wife of U.S. citizen<\/a> Daniel Wani, has been incarcerated at the Omdurman<\/a> Federal Women\u2019s Prison along with the couple\u2019s 20-month-old son, Martin, and 1-week old daughter, Maya. She currently faces a death sentence.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Meriam and Daniel, who is also a Christian, were married at a Christian church<\/a> in Sudan<\/a> in December 2011.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Last week Meriam gave birth to her daughter, Maya. The Sudanese court has allowed her to raise her daughter for two years in the prison.\u00a0 After the two years, if Meriam does not win an appeal, recant her faith, or if Sudan does not cave to international pressure to free her, she will be hanged for her faith.<\/p>\n

The State Department<\/a> has not been particularly helpful in this situation.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Until Ibrahim’s husband, Daniel Wani, signed a Privacy Act<\/a> waiver on Monday, the State Department declined to admit that he was a U.S. citizen. However, even after the State Department admitted on Monday that Wani is indeed a U.S. citizen, it would not admit that his two children, imprisoned with his wife in Sudan, are also U.S. citizens.<\/strong><\/p>\n

That the wife of a U.S. citizen (whose children are probably U.S. citizens).is being held in these conditions is a very strong indication that the United States<\/a> has thoroughly lost its influence in the world. Hopefully our next President will be able to repair some of the damage done by President Obama.<\/p>\n
