WHAT will it take for many in the Left to openly condemn the Islamic State? Why this silence in the face of evil?
In January, the Islamic State threw two men off a tall building in Iraq for the “crime” of being gay.
In February, they threw another gay man off a building, this time in Syria and, when he somehow survived, had a crowd stone him to death.
IS is in a war against gays — not just against Jews, Christians and any Muslim thought insufficiently devout.
But what have our main gay representatives — largely Left-leaning — said in response to such savagery against gays?
The NSW Gay and Lesbian Rights Lobby? Silent.
Victoria’s Gay and Lesbian Rights Lobby? Not one press release.
Labor frontbencher Penny Wong, openly lesbian? Nothing.
Former Greens leader Bob Brown, our first openly gay senator?
Also nothing.
Current Greens leader Christine Milne? Not a tweet.
Indeed, not one of the 150 floats in Sydney’s Gay and Lesbian mardi gras on Saturday flew a banner of protest against this deadly persecution or the brand of faith which inspired it.
Yes, the faith. Many Muslim countries do permit gay sex, yet it is also true that all seven countries which punish homosexuality with death are Muslim, with the Koran damning gays as “people transgressing beyond bounds” who should have “rained down on them a shower (of brimstone)”.
So why no protest from the gay Left?

Courage, which comes from moral righteousness. Mutually exclusive of leftist ideology.
The left is all aboard the muslim train.
It’s okay for muslims to be abusive to woman, homosexuals, children, other religions, etc., but it’s not okay for other groups to think that way.
Didn’t an American woman politician or appointee recently say that members of ISIS need jobs?
If ISIS comes to America and starts throwing gays off the buildings and stoning them I bet their Muslim tolerance dissipates. They’ll beg real men to protect them after they see their dragqueen buddies dragged through the streets and beheaded. Talk about hard choices...
They don't seem to understand that,if the moslems come to power,they'll very probably come for the homosexuals even *before* they come for the Jews and atheists.Don't know how things are in Oz but here in the US if you take away the homosexuals,Jews and atheists their movement is just about kaput.At the very least the leadership of the movement is absolutely obliterated.
Won't they be surprised when they find out the muslims don't agree.
It’s a hallmark of useful idiots that they remain useful idiots right up until they’re lined up against the wall. Then they’re genuinely perplexed for a few seconds before being dispatched.
It’s been pretty obvious for a while that gays are only useful to the left for fund raising, as an ancillary voting bloc and as a tool for disrupting traditional values.
Otherwise, gays are considered a pain in the posterior.
You know what’s funny, people who talk about persecution so much should take a look at the Middle East, where it is pretty much open season on you from the wrath of the authorities to the wrath of a lover you may have, you can kill you as a scapegoat with about no threat of repercussion.
“The enemy of my enemy” is always disaster waiting to happen, as WWII, Cold War, and the Middle East has shown.
