Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs is frustrated and angry that Rifqa Bary isn't getting better, wiser, and shrewder legal representation. Rifqa's parents are being represented by a CAIR-appointed lawyer who is outmaneuvering Rifqa's lawyers. Read about the developing situation here.
Embedded in Geller's post is a plea from Wafa Sultan that was originally published here. Sultan is an expert on Islam. Of her Geller says: "Author, writer, speaker, Sultan was born to a Sunni Muslim family in Baniyas, Syria. Sultan trained as a psychiatrist in Syria and is a US naturalized citizen."
Sultan writes: (my bolding)
I was born and raised as a Muslim in Syria. I practiced Islam for thirty years of my life.
Now I am a known human rights activist striving to save our future Muslim generations from the impact of the violent, hateful Islamic doctrines embedded in the Sharia. My life is also threatened, not only by my own extended family, but by countless men who consider themselves devout Muslims. Under Sharia, if a Muslim leaves Islam or converts to another religion he / she is an “apostate,” to be killed. Under Sharia every Muslim has the right to kill such an apostate without any questions asked. [more . .]
Me: That American "educated elites" refuse to believe the universal testimony of apostate killings under Sharia [Islamic law] is quite incredible. Beyond that, it is disgusting. Political correctness refuses to believe that a religion could be so barbaric. Naivete and political correctness go together. At some point, people will invariably recognize the politically correct for the fools they are, but by then it may be too late. Let us hope and pray that Rifqa Bary survives her Muslim "apostasy" and that the U.S.legal system awakens to the danger in which she remains.
Incidentally, we may send New Year's cards to Rifqa at the following address:
Rifqa Bary c/o Angela Lloyd 255C Drinko Hall 55 West 12th Avenue Columbus, OH 43210.
