If there were problems with the passport, then that’s where they would have gone. One of them is American.

‘I will be pressuring my representatives in Congress to eliminate any and all funding or any aid of any kind to your country, and I will be informing everybody I know of your nation’s perfidy and 7th century savagery.’

This. Guarantee that if they get a sufficient number of similar sentiments, Meriam Ibrahim & her family will be safe in the US before you know it.

Yes, we trust in God above all. But He entrusts certain tasks to us. Let’s do this one with zeal.

The BBC says the husband and children were released, but she remains in jail in Khartoum:

Sudan death row woman 'faked papers'

Too many differing stories to know what is actually happening with her. Praying for her release.

Keeping certain people guessing about her actual where abouts will no doubt give her the cover she needs to leave the country.

BTW, Jeremy Reynalds who wrote the report for Assist News Service runs a faith-based family homeless shelter ("Joy Junction") in Albuquerque. I have a lot of respect for him as he lives the Christian principle of charity toward others who are not well off because of circumstances and he does so through private donations (not governmental funding).

Yes, probably to some place safe like Mosul.

There are conflicting stories everywhere. This one just came from the America Center for Law & Justice: http://aclj.org/

Where is Meriam Ibrahim?

Yesterday, just as Meriam – the Sudanese Christian woman sentenced to death for her Christian faith – was boarding a flight out of Sudan with her family, on the verge of freedom, the Sudanese secret police re-arrested Meriam and detained her American husband and her two American children.

Some reports say they were literally taken out of the hands of American diplomats.

Now, there are conflicting reports out of Sudan, with some outlets reporting that they’re still in custody, and some reporting that they’re out but unable to leave the country.

One thing is clear: Now is the time for a maximum effort by the Obama Administration to secure safe passage to America for Meriam and her American family.

Detaining Meriam and her American husband and American kids is intolerable. We must take a stand today. Demand safe passage for Meriam and her family to American soil.

Remember, theses are the descendents of the Mahdi Fuzzy Wuzzys who massacred all the people of Khartoum in 1885 along with Charles Gordon.

British troops, along with Winston Churchill cleaned their plow at Omdurman in 1898.
