A young blind boy has died after a teacher at his Islamic school in Pakistan hung him upside down and beat him for not learning the Koran, Agence France-Presse reported Friday.

Teacher Qari Ziauddin allegedly hung Muhammad Atif, 7, from a ceiling fan at Qari Latif Islamic school near Lahore, Pakistan, on Thursday.

So why is this a police matter in Pakistan?

How's he's supposed to read it if he's blind? I doubt these savages are advanced enough to have the Koran in Braille.

Or is that ALSO "un-Islamic"?

[P8riot]

Understanding the Koran should have been easy for the boy. You HAVE to be blind to follow Islam.

Anyone wanting to see a glimpse into what the Taliban can do to a nation needs to see “The Kite Runner.” I was stunned and astonished - shouldn’t have been, but I was.

It just gives me a warm fuzzy to know we have allies such as this.

[Clintonfatigued]

Just when you think you had heard it all with regards to Islam, something like this happens.

Bush calls this a Religion of Peace, by the way.

[LiberConservative]

Another Muslim “intellectual”.

And the Brits want to discuss terms of surrender with them.

Everything will change when they can vote for their insane fanatical leaders...that’s the ticket!

[Gator101]

Ah yes, being hung from a fan and beaten for not doing our lessons sure brings back memories of bible school....errr, wait...no it doesn't!

What the h*** is wrong with these people! If the kid hadn't died I bet nobody would have batted an eye over there.

[SampleMan]

Its only the 97% that do and condone this sort of thing that give all the others a bad name.

And people complain about Sr. Mary Arbitrary.

[Boagenes]

And this is supposed to be a surprise?

[skinkinthegrass]

Understanding the Koran should have been easy for the boy. You HAVE to be blind to follow Islam....short / concise.

[samtheman]

Islam is a Pestilence.

And yet another thread claims WE are the violators of human rights "False claims may say our security measures violate Muslims' Human Rights"

Also “A Thousand Splendid Suns” by the same author.

Apparently, that’s even worse.

Not intending to be outrageous, but Pakistani ceiling fans appear to be anchored more securely than American fans.

So sad he had to learn the hard way Allah is not God.
He knows the truth now.
To hell with their crap!!!
