Gee, who would have thought that the government of Egypt would embrace Sharia law and hardcore Islam if Mubarak was pushed out?
(Reuters) A Cairo court on Wednesday sentenced to death seven Egyptian Christians tried in absentia for participating in an anti-Islam video that was released on the Internet in September and prompted violent protests in Muslim countries.
“The seven accused persons were convicted of insulting the Islamic religion through participating in producing and offering a movie that insults Islam and its prophet,” Judge Saif al-Nasr Soliman said.
The low-budget video, produced privately in California, denigrated the Prophet Mohammad and triggered anti-U.S. protests and attacks on Western embassies around the Muslim world.
The convicted persons included Egyptian-American Nakoula Bassely Nakoula, who is currently serving a one-year-jail term in Los Angeles after an American court convicted him of probation violations that stemmed from his role in the movie.
And the Obama admin? Crickets. Glad they spent quite a bit of time demonizing Nakoula.
Thumb to nose, fingers spread.
“PHHHHHHHPHT!”
They’re giving the bird to Obama.
giving the bird to Obama? Nope. TO us. To America. These were actors living in America. Some of which claimed they were duped about the reason for the movie.
And it shows again how un-free and anti-liberty muslims are. They tried, convicted and sentenced to death people that had no chance to defend themselves and were not even citizens of their country.
Is Obama going to now claim that the actors have riled up the Islamists? That if they didn’t insult the PROPHET they wouldn’t have the death sentence upon their heads?
Or, is this even more reason to send another couple hundred million to them? Maybe then, they will start not being who they are?
