The forces of radical Islam are getting very bold in Malaysia; an American couple was subjected to a humiliating, terrifying 2 am khalwat inspection by religious enforcement officers:
Retired American policeman Randal Barnhart, who was subjected to a 2am raid by religious enforcement officers, is reconsidering his plan to make Malaysia his second home.
After that unpleasant episode two weeks ago, I do not feel like making Malaysia my second home. It is a pity because both my wife and I really love Langkawi, he said.
On Oct 12, Barnhart, 62, and his wife Carole, 61, were in their rented condominium in Kuah when enforcement officers continuously knocked on their door at 2am, accusing them of committing khalwat (close proximity).
He said the officers demanded to see his marriage certificate, although he had told them that they were Christians and should not be subjected to Islamic law.
We find it difficult to forget the unpleasant episode. My wife was so terrified by the incident that she fears sleeping in that condominium, he added.
Banhart said the officers were rude and insisted on seeing the woman when he opened the door. My wife had to show herself despite only having a sarong on at that time. We felt humiliated for being treated this way, he said.
He said he had to send his wife back to the United States on the next available flight because she feared people might return to the condominium to terrify her in the middle of the night.
She flew home on Wednesday.
I want the religious department to apologise to me and my wife in writing,

Yeah, that's what made me want to slow roast a pork loin.
Allow me to explain ; )
Once upon a time, my dad (a fabulous cook) was getting ready to cook for some long time buddies. There, on the cutting board next to a large cleaver, lay a huge pork loin...
oh, if I tell what he said, and you realize I found it extremely humorous, you might not think I'm a lady. LOL!
Suffice to say, he referenced a donkey ; )
Plumbers use the same expression for the flexible insulating material that covers pipes inside of walls against the cold.
" DD "
and I still think that you are a nice lady.
Saudi centerfold?
I think he should just get out of there. It really is hard to reconcile the support the left has for the islamists. They constantly talk about not wanting anyone going into their bedrooms....never hear them make a peep about this kind of thing.
LOL! What's the point, eh?
OK, I hear you.
Fortunately for me when I had to go back for additional 'stuff' I stayed at a motel away from downtown.
Just think, for a lot less money you could have avoided all that!
The muzzie said : " Smile "
I don't understand.
Surely these are 'enlightened' and tolerant Americans, who were perfectly fine with the idea of living in a Muslim country. Where was there attempt to 'reason' with the men beating on their door? Couldn't they have settled this as calm, rational people and come to an understanding? Surely there would have been apologies and goodwill if they had!
Sounds like non-judgemental, fair-minded NAIVETE met reality head on.
I do love it when the Kumbaya Crowd meets the Koran. My, my!
Islam means what it says...imagine that!
Tolerance is a Western ideal, and the Islamists hate Western ideals.
Islam doesn't seek multiculturalism.
Their goal is monoculturalism: one world under Islam.
They are not at war for tolerance, but at war with tolerance.
" Does the one in the middle look like Hillary Rodham Clinton ...?"
Yes
So how slow ARE we in the West?
Islam has been the same for HOW many centuries? Same song, same clowns, murder, mayhem, terrorism, same goal.
Submit/convert or die- again and again, all through history and now it's on the daily news.
It's very hard to feel sorry for people who have Islam's message SCREAMED at them from every direction and who play deaf. When stupid meets sharia, sharia wins.
Maybe Islam is nature's way of culling the terminally stupid from civilization. There is no other explanation for people who say ' Oh, they don't mean that. That's not what Islam really is!' while buildings blow up, heads are sawed off, women are stoned and sharia law is forced on non Muslims.
I believe the Koran means EXACTLY what it says- and that every Muslim believes the same. Anyone who doesn't is a sheep with their butt in the air. Naked singularity stupid.
Everybody else is subject to traffic stops without probable cause, search of the vehicle without a warrant, and seizure of property without being charged with so much as a blinker violation. Oh, and if the trash bag in your car has week-old beer cans that are dry as a bone from the last time you camped out with a few buddies and you didn't drink since then, they'll hit you with an alcohol open-container citation. It's only a matter of time before they can do it at your house, too.
The history of Western Europe would undeniably be very different had the Frankish army been defeated in 732.
Like the victory of Constantinople some fifteen years earlier, Muslim advances had finally been thwarted, and the steady Reconquista of Spain and parts of Byzantine Empire began apace.
Though the Byzantines finally succumbed by 1453, the Turks were eventually defeated in the great naval battle at Lepanto in 1571, and turned away from Vienna in 1683.
The threat of the Caliphate encroaching on Western Europe never penetrated as far west again--until today, as unassimilated Muslim immigrants threaten to "behead those who insult Islam" and foment rage at every perceived slight.
