The Gray Lady continues the fashionable trend in journalism:
Extremists Are Suspected in Killing of Pakistani Minister
Irfan Haider/Associated Press
Police officers and paramedics transported the body of Pakistan’s minister of minorities, Shahbaz Bhatti, who was shot dead on Thursday in Islamabad.
…
Mr. Bhatti was heading for a cabinet meeting when three or four gunmen ambushed his car outside his house in a middle-class neighborhood of the capital, Islamabad, and shot him multiple times as he sat in the back seat, the police said.
The killers, dressed in traditional Pakistani garb of baggy pants and long tunic, fled the scene in a white car. The hospital where Mr. Bhatti was pronounced dead said 20 bullets had been fired.
A pamphlet found at the site warned against changes in the blasphemy law and was signed by militants, police officials said. It specifically named Mr. Bhatti.
A spokesman for the Taliban, who is based in Punjab, later called Pakistani media and claimed responsibility for the assassination…
The LA Times’ headline however is to the point and actually informative:
Pakistan’s only Christian Cabinet member assassinated
Shahbaz Bhatti, the minority affairs minister, is the second top Pakistani official to be killed over his opposition to a blasphemy law that critics say is often misused to persecute minorities.
Islam … Hopeless …
These carbon units are zombies. Their leaders are murderers. Their supporters in the West are our own leftist zombies whose leaders are just plain old useful idiots, you know … university faculty, unions, teachers … most people on government payrolls. All to whom reality is a stranger.
You may have noted that one of their primary goals is to get all westerners out of Muslim lands.
One of our primary goals should be to get all Muslims our of Free Western lands.
If the Left really wanted us off oil, they would side with the West and toss the Muzz … they would stop the oil and the Lefties would have their wish … no more oil based economy in the West. Of course that means no more economy period, but they don’t usually consider unintended consequences now do they?
Our best salvation is to heed the famous words of one of America’s ‘smartest’ (in the true sense of the word) women … “Drill Baby Drill”.
It’s interesting that Glen Beck and Sarah Palin make lefties crazy … it’s because they cannot handle truth.
Well,we will get the death penalty back in Canada.This time it will be for blasphemy and not for murder.I wonder how the liberals will oppose that and how many will sacrifce themselves on the alter of free speach.
“Extremists Are Suspected in Killing of Pakistani Minister”
Let me translate that into real English . . .
“Political Correctness Suspected in Ridiculous New York Times Headline”
Where is Emperor Diocletian when you need him?
And maybe the Donatists were early adopters of Tim Hortons!
When in doubt St. Augustine of Hippo to the rescue:
“A state which is not governed according to justice; would be just a bunch of thieves!”

And remember, these inbreeds have nukes…With any chance, like their retard cousins in the ME, they have no clue on how to maintain anything so when some future nut case orders to push the button nothing happens…Or hopefully the rocket does not fire but the warhead detonation sequence starts countdown:
“AhiiiiiAhhiiiAhiii!!…Get the cutters Ahpoo and start cutting the wires!!!”
From the LA Times article: “On Jan. 4, (Punjab Gov. Salman Taseer), 65, was assassinated in Islamabad by (Mumtaz Hussain Qadri, who) has said he killed the governor because of his opposition to the blasphemy law.
“When Qadri appeared in court, lawyers kissed him on the cheek and showered him with flower petals…”
Any and all books by Ayaan Hirsi Ali are recommended for anyone that doesn’t understand this ideological tyranny.
Well, the Gray Lady did acknowledge that he was dead 🙁
They close Churches, we build mosques. They kill Christians and we give them welfare anf free access.
Is there sumpin’ wrong here?
He knew his life was in danger.
Here in Canada the Islamofacists can use our various HRCs to persecute Canadians for blasphemy. How sick is that, Sharia Law enforced via the secular state of Canadastan.
“The slain official, Shahbaz Bhatti, 41, the minister of minorities, had made a life’s work of campaigning for tolerance in Pakistan, which is 95 percent Muslim, ”
Now I understand the meaning of a “sisyphean” task.
Now, now, before anyone goes off the deep end, just remember that are cultures are equal. There, don’t you feel better?
Name one country with a muslim majority where a Christian man can safely say “I am a Christian” and not reasonably fear for his life because the legal system will not protect him or prosecute someone who kills him for “insulting islam”.
Name one country with a muslim majority where an unescorted woman(Christian or otherwise)can walk safely in public and not fear being assaulted, raped or killed for the crime of not being in the care custody and control of a male spouse or relative.
Why do gays (not that there is anything wrong with that!) hate and seek the destruction of Israel where gays have the same rights as any other citizen and romanticize about muslim arab entities which regularly hang gays for the crime of being homosexual?
Why do western countries allow people with an increasingly pervasive barbaric mindset to enter their countries? What kind of lives will our grandchildren live if we don’t ensure members of all religions (or no religion)and both genders have absolutely equal rights?
Sometimes I just don’t get it.
they shoot carisssssstians in pakiland?
I await the day they start throwing them to the lions again.
feel free to send all your cash to benny hinn.
I’ll reserve my comments until I hear what the ladies on the View have to say.
It has historically always been the same with Islam. They inbreed for centuries, get nuttier and nuttier, more and more violent and then we wipe them out. Soon this is going to be the final option.

I agree. Waiting for Whoppi to announce “Cristian” is not the same as “Christian, Christian”
Next time there is an earthquake or humanitarian crisis of some kind, do one of two things: cut Pakistan off or help only Christians because then at least one knows there will be gratitude and you will live longer. Also, they don’t breed with their cousins.
As I commented similarly at Weasel Zippers yesterday, too bad O.J. is in the slammer or he could track down the mysterious killer(s) for the MFM.

Sadly you could modify what you say to:
Name one country with a secular or Islamic majority where a Christian man can safely say “I am a Christian” and not reasonably fear for his life because the legal system will not protect him or prosecute someone who kills him for “insulting islam”. In the West its our wallets not life we fear from HRC’s.

misused? What is a blasphemy law for, if not the persecution of minorities?
