[Telepathic Intruder]

These trials can sometimes drag on for years. Hopefully no decision will be reached until Rifqa's 18th birthday, which is in August, I hear. As I've said, I don't know why her radical muslim parents aren't on trial instead. This is the only picture I've seen of Rifqa:

She covers up her right eye because she claims her loving father took it out in a punch she says knocked her across the room. When the bruise finally healed, he took her to a doctor to treat her eye, which was lost by then. She also claims her uncle has mollested her while her mother knew about it, and that her parents are members of radical Islamic groups connected to terrorism. I thought this sort of justice system only existed in Islamic countries.

Dear God, that is a horrific story.

Looks like the eye injury happened in 2000. The reports were that she’d fallen on a toy airplane that pierced her right eye. Other reports are that her brother threw something at her, which hit her in the eye.

The thing is, she found Christ a few years *after* her eye was injured, in 2005.

Let’s pursue truth, and not rely on fabrications to support this girl.

You wrote that Rifqa “claims her loving father took it out in a punch she says knocked her across the room.”

Do you have a **specific** citation to support that? If not, it’s merely an urban legend (i.e., a lie).
