Help stop an 'honor killing'

Exclusive: Andrew Longman urges action for woman set to be deported to Pakistan

Posted: April 22, 2009 1:00 am Eastern

Emphatic in winning the war against Islamist jihadism is the ability to articulate morality in protecting the innocent. The West's moral and religious validity is measured, universally and in the eyes of the people, via whether, "orphans and old widows in their distress" are cared for. The Bible calls that "pure and faultless religion." The vulnerable case of Roohi Tabassum is a classic case in point.

Abandoned by her husband, struggling in a foreign land, a mother with few marketplace skills, Tabassum is the picture of a woman the church, and a Judeo-Christian nation, ought to extend charity to. Instead, Canada is trying to kill her. For, on April 28, the Canadian government has set her deportation to Pakistan. This is an act of inert secularity of soul, a denial of Christian civilization. And why is that?

Tabassum's family, Pakistani Islamists who themselves had fled from other sects of radicals, have sworn multiple times that they will murder Roohi if she ever sets foot in Pakistan. They call this an "honor killing," though of course it is hard to imagine angry men attacking a defenseless woman as honorable. The Canadian government, devoted to the principle that all religions are identical, apparently believes that a written death threat from a group of violent Islamists carries the same meaning as a written death threat from a Swedish Lutheran grandmother's knitting and prayer circle; it must be figurative marketing for a bake sale – right?

If they’re here illegally they should have thought of that before coming over here. Deport them before they pop out more little raggies.
