Yemeni who insulted Islam to lose his head [RELIGION OF PEACE ALERT]
World Tribune ^ | 02/03/03

Saudi Arabia has sentenced a Yemeni national to death after he refused to wake up for prayers and denounced Islam and the Saudi religious police.

A Saudi court in Jedda sentenced the Yemeni national to death on Jan. 7.

Saudi newspapers said Hail Al Masri was originally sentenced to two years imprisonment and 600 lashes. But a higher court headed by Ali Al Zahrani rejected the sentence and ruled that Al Masri should be beheaded.

The reports said Al Masri tried to jump from the third floor where the courtroom was located after the death sentence was read. Al Masri was seriously injured in the fall and taken to a local hospital.

Al Masri was charged with refusing the appeals of his roommate to wake up for early morning prayers. When the roommate insisted, Al Masri began cursing him, Islam and Saudi religious police.

The roommate complained to authorities and Al Masri was arrested. Other university students testified that Al Masri also slapped his roommate.

The Washington-based Saudi Institute said Saudi Arabia has not formally announced the death sentence. The opposition group said a Saudi reporter who covered the court proceedings refused to speak with the institute in fear of government reprisal.

The institute called on the United States to pressure Saudi Arabia to commute Al Masri's death sentence. The group urged for appeals to be sent to former President Jimmy Carter, winner of Noble Prize and a friend of Saudi King Fahd.

The appeal came as Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz began a dialogue with intellectuals over the prospect of democratic reforms. They included a proposal to elect the current Shura Council, which examines domestic issues and issues recommendations for legislation.

I can only imagine how this went.

Abdul: Aknad, you must wake up

Aknad: leave me alone, just 5 more minutes.

Abdul: The religious police say you must be out of bed for prayers at 5 am

Aknad: I'm gettting up, just give me 5 more minutes

Abdul: Aknad, the rules laid out by the religious police clearly state you must praise Allah at 5:15 AM, now you wouldn't want to offend the laws of Islam would you?

Aknad: Why don't you shove the rules of Islam and the religious police up your...

And why is America supposed to get involved?

IMHO, this is exactly why you never borrow money from a room mate in an Islamic country. Being late on repayment can have dire consequences.

No need to insult Islam. It is out there for all to see. Why restate the obvious.

More like.....

"Hey Abdul, I need that $200 you borrowed from me last week. You said you would pay me back yesterday."

Kiss my Mecca facing ass Akhmed, you'll get it when you get it. You'll only spend it on whores as usual anyway. Now leave me alone."

"Payback is a camel-bitch Abdul."

"Bite me Akhmed"

Give me a break. While it can not be argued that Christians and Jews both carried out horrendous acts against people of other faiths and their own religion, that was hundreds if not a thousand years ago. When was the last time you heard of a Christian country beheading their countrymen for not attending prescribed prayer services. Both Christianity and Judaism learned from their past. Radical Islam however still lives in the dark ages.

As for the Tammy Faye, Jim Baker example, that kind of logic holds no water. Name me one person either one of them beheaded. Name one court or country either of them ran that sentenced people to death for not following the tenants of Christianity.

Logic should be your friend.

Dude - get a calendar, have a grown-up show you how to use it. It's been hundreds of years since Judeao-Christian religions endorsed a good beheading or something similar. We grew up since than. Islam prefers to stay in its adolescence and thus continually acts like the psychotic children in The Lord of the Flies. Hmmm - lord of flies; Allah - I wonder……

Notice that you never hear a peep from the 'Free Mumia' crowd on these Islamic death sentences?

I would say that Tammy Faye Bakker is an example of mascara gone wild.
