UNDERSTANDING THE ENEMY – AT 8:16 A.M. ET:   Our enemies in the world constantly do us the service of reminding us who and what they are.  From the New York Post: 

KHARTOUM, Sudan — A Sudanese woman doctor who married a Christian man and who was convicted earlier this week on charges of “apostasy” was sentenced to death on Thursday, judicial officials said.

According to the Sudanese officials, 26-year-old Meriam Ibrahim, whose father was Muslim, was convicted on Sunday and given four days to repent and escape death. She was sentenced after that grace period expired, the officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity in line with regulations.

The BBC reported the woman’s death by hanging will not be carried out until two years after the birth of her child.

How kind of them.

The sentencing drew condemnation from Western embassies in the Sudanese capital, Khartoum, and international rights groups, including Amnesty International.

Only Western embassies?  Hmm.

The rights group reported the woman is eight months pregnant.

The court in Khartoum also ordered Ibrahim be given 100 lashes for committing “zena” — an Arabic word for illegitimate sex — for having sexual relations with a non-Muslim man.

The couple married in 2011 and have a child, born 18 months ago. Under Sudanese law, Ibrahim’s marriage to a non-Muslim is regarded as void.

COMMENT:  Haven't heard a word from "feminist" groups.  And, of course, you may be sure that the multiculturalist crowd will be out there labeling any critic of this barbarism as Islamophobic.  That's the game these days.

Oh, where are the college students, the ones who shouted down Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Condi Rice?  I guess they're just too busy fighting American imperialism.
