It starts with charges of “Islamophobia” and “bigotry.” This is where it ends up. If the West doesn’t recover a sense of itself, this is our future.
“Man ‘sentenced to death for atheism’ in Saudi Arabia”, by Bethan McKernan, Independent, April 26, 2017:
A man in Saudi Arabia has reportedly been sentenced to death on charges of apostasy after losing two appeals.
Several local media reports identified the man as Ahmad Al Shamri, in his 20s, from the town of Hafar al-Batin, who first came to the authorities’ attention in 2014 after allegedly uploading videos to social media in which he renounced Islam and the Prophet Mohammed.
He was arrested on charges of atheism and blasphemy and held in prison before being convicted by a local court and sentenced to death in February 2015.
At the time Mr Shamri’s defence entered an insanity plea, adding that his client was under the influence of drugs and alcohol at the time of making the videos.
He reportedly lost an Appeals Court case, and a Supreme Court ruled against him earlier this week.
While news stories in the last few years consistently identify Mr Shamri, his identity or sentencing has not been verified by the Saudi authorities.
The Independent’s requests for comment from Saudi government representatives were not immediately answered.
Under Saudi Arabia’s strict religious laws, leaving Islam can be punishable by harsh prison sentences and corporeal punishment – and a 2014 string of royal decrees under the late King Abdullah re-defined atheists as terrorists, according to a report by Human Rights Watch.
Last year, a citizen was sentenced to 10 years in prison and 2,000 lashes for expressing atheistic sentiment in hundreds of social media posts.
Mr Shamri’s name and hometown have trended on Arabic-speaking Twitter in the last few days. Some users have even celebrated his sentencing.
“If you’re a lowkey atheist that’s fine. But once you talk in public & criticize God or religion, then you shall be punished,” one such post read.
“I wish there could be live streaming when you cut his head off,” said another.
International human rights watchdogs have consistently condemned Saudi Arabia’s human rights record.
The Kingdom came under further scrutiny last week when it emerged it had been elected to the UN’s women’s rights commission.
Under the country’s system of guardianship, women’s rights and freedom of movement is heavily restricted. They are not allowed to drive, and voted for the first time in 2015……

trump bows to saudi arabia. trump will deport all mexicans but only to replace them with millions of “peaceful”, “moderate” muslims from “allies” islamic countries like saudi arabia. lol. remember, north korea and russia are a threat to the usa, it’s necessary to concentrate efforts to defeat them. lol. the hand of mohammad is strong
Saudi Arabia fears Iran and the fighting units to their south in Yemen (supplied by Iran) than the Jewish State of Israel. There has been discussion about opening Saudi air space to permit IAF jets to conducts strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities. But Iran has potentially effective counter forces should an attack come from Israel, thanks to Russian involvement including the supplying of S-300 AA missiles.
I’d hope Israel wouldn’t be stupid enough to trust the Soddy Barbarians to fly over their airspace. Sure the Soddy Barbarians might let Israel fly over Soddy Barbaria to attack their enemies in the Ummah, but would they let the IAF fly back unmolested over Soddy Barbarian airspace? Or use the concept of the hudna to make a temporary peace treaty that they only break when they fire mass concentrations of AA missiles at the returning IAF — to the delight of the entirety of ummah worldwide?
Yes. Even if there was an agreement, it is too late to make an easy go against Iran. Israeli hesitancy and of course, eight years of misguidance from the Obama States of America have pretty much doomed such an arrangement. Such an attack could have been successful during the Bush years, but he was not proactive, either.
And the radar gear that goes with .
The best way to defeat an enemy is to destroy it financially, even the nazis did not use all the economic weapons they could have, knowing the destruction would be hideous. The way to deal with islam, is to stop funding it, by those who are victimized by it.
Yes. Leave their oil in the ground, un-purchased and it won’t be long before they come running to make a deal.
Islamic petrocracies make trillions of US dollars in oil income annually, the funding of the spread of islum by dying western democracies is merely icing on the cake.
There are a few wealthy ones, but most are destitute at best. They are the ones who require international welfare just to feed their citizens, except the money is used to try destroying the people that are feeing them. Time to let muslims fend for themselves.
I’d imagine the combined GDP of muslum petrocratic states like Soddy Barbaria, Kuwait, UAE is greater than N. Korea and JP combined and a large percentage of that GDP goes to fund islamic terrorism and the spread of islum.
Happy Saturday.
Merry Weekend to to you too.
Saturday? Lol, you are behind the times. We’re into Sunday in our neck of the woods.
In the part of the alternative universe I exist in, due to the space time condom, it is “halfweekendsday” here.
I meant S. Korea. N. Korea doesn’t have an economy, just empty promises.
We knew that … JP was the clue. … Though without our petrodollars – I think the Norks could give the camel jockeys a run for their money.
thousands of US citizens are demonstrating against Trump’s attempt to make US energy independent .
resident drones. barely citizens – by virtue of their own Big Government –
They think we should get our power from the safe, clean, efficient, green, renewable plugs in the walls …
ha ha indeed.
Thousands of the raw stock for Soylent Green . Burning the fat out from between their ears could be an energy source lasting into the next millennium .
you sound like idiot …
destroy islam financially ??? good luck …….islam was brought to the west by poor immigrants ……hahaha …
and islam is spreading also by poor people mostly ….
if you want to defeat islam …the only way is to create religion/ideoogy better than islam …..hahahaha…
is freedom and liberty …the western ideology better than islam ???
it sounds better …but this 21st century rrligion is a Form Without Content ….. Its a hollow ideology ….
Thats why its follower fulfill the void with all kinds of pervert behaviors/ritual …….
Now we know why b*tt based lifestyles is thriving in this void society….
hahahahahahaha …..
“Is freedom and liberty …the western ideology better than islam ???”
So you admit islum is fascist and totalitarian eh Semen?
Your Djinn called, your bacha bazi boy friend has AIDS.
atheism and theism are both true ???
butt centered culture and lifestyle will preserve a dying civiization ???
why are you so afraid to hold to a truth and defend it…. ladyboy ???
hahahaha….
As bacha bazi boys do not reproduce, islam will die off like the sterile insect it is.
can you connect the dots between Nato invasion in Afghanistan and the return of filthy Bacha Bazi perversion ????
hahahahaha….
we read history about Ottoman Turks, Moors in Spain, & the “companions” habit of taking little(hairless) children as slaves.
what conclusion do you make ?
Pervert are exist everywhere and in every century ….
whats your point ?
A Prophet of G-d would Never indulge in such behavior. A true Holy Book would/does forbid such behavior. (Even animals dont try to mate with another NOT yet in heat, not Wanting sex.) They wouldnt neuter the females. I could go on—
what refference do you have to talk about truth and falsehood ???
Are you talking about prophet marriage with aishah ??
what moral reference do you have to say it is morally wrong ??
Isabella of France (9 November 1389 – 13 September 1409) was Queen consort of England as the second spouse of King Richard II. Her parents were King Charles VI of France and Isabeau of Bavaria. She married the king at the age of seven …….
Early marriage was common during that century …for strengthening inter-clan alliance …etc …
the Muslims that take children today arnt kings or queens, they just like kids & have Koran permission. If someone took your kid (girl, losing her virginity to a prev)or boy, possibly turning him into a gay, You would be SOOO angry!!
if you live in 7th century …and have a daughter …what would you do ?? …..
In lawless society at that time …poverty …. violent situation .. low life expectancy …
Do you want to ask her to delay marriage until finish college years ??
hahahaha…
do U spend this much time explaining to fellow Muslims that they no longer live in the 7/th Century & must “elevate” their behavior or go to jail? Ones kids belong to G-d so we dont own them.
Can you connect the dots between islam, muslim and eternal damnation in hell? No need for you to, it is done.
?????
“It is written in the qur’an” to quote mutgonad, police beat upon him, “Recite”.
Muslims are enrolled in nambla the day they are born .
does that make Namibia morally superior ??
Allahtard don’t get the joke, why am I not surprised?
Probably far more so than you , troll
How is that going to happen ?? Can you explain ??
Gravity .
LOL. Good one.
You will laugh you way all the way to hell. islam will defeat itself, as it already is doing, as the rate of muslims killing muslims in the levant increases, they ill try to escape, to places where they will continue to kill each other.
I wish Imperial Japan had committed more atrocities in Indonesia, which I think was called the Dutch East Indies back then.
They did enough. The should have done less, one must always be nice, even if one is conquering another nation, there is no reason not to do it politely.
“Nice”, “polite” and empire don’t really work too well together.
do you think indonesia should adopt butt & porn friendly constitution like those liberal countries ???
hehehehe…
Pakistain leads the world in google searches for “rape sex” lying muslum worm.
It’s hilarious how a dumb muslum monkey like you denounces porn on the one hand but not islamic slavery and islamic sex slavery on the other.
Pakistani behavior ??? … I am not pakistani …whats your point ???
What do you think your behavior as PORN PRODUCER/ACTORS ??? …hehehehe…
islamic sex slavery ??? can you show me holy text that promotes and encourage it ??
In this instance you are (partially) correct. The hedonistic lifestyle of western liberals will, if not arrested, lead to civilisation’s demise. But you are misguided in your solution. Islam is living proof of and fulfillment of the Second law of Thermodynamics; it moves the universe one step closer towards decay and breakdown and as it spreads it hastens the blight on all that it touches.
civilization decay is closely related to the breakdown of moral & social boundaries …
Do you think the ideology of freedom & liberty has nothing to do with the destruction of all these boundaries ????
I agreed it has a little when I said you were partially correct. But only partially. Western ideology worked fine and beaut until Islam lifted its eye from its miserable desert existence and, fixating on the west, realised we provide all that is great in life, viz a work ethic, internal locus of control, technological progress, music, art, architecture, sport, fun and laughter. And thereafter began the envy, the coveting and the desire to wrest western assets for its men (women simply being an adjunct to you.) Won’t work Semur, wont work at all. You have no idea what enjoyment of life is all about.
Western ideology worked fine ?? …not so ….
If it’s true then muslim migrants will ditch islam and switch to “freedom and liberty” …. and most muslim are not from “desert” / non arab) …
Freedom and liberty is an open questions than an answer …
You still have to find truth ….
Technological progress ??? ….You are talking about tools ….
Rocket to mars in essence is the same like horse/donkey …it’s just a tool of transportation …. Computers ..etc etc are the same …
No matter how advance computer technology …transportation ….medical ..etc ..etc …..it won’t answer basic questions such as meaning of life ….why we here …where we go after we die …etc ..
Work ethic ??? … Partially correct ….but …
…Don’t you now that American life is basically supported by chinesse people ?? …. Do you know billion dollars of US obligation purchased by China ??
Woohoo Semur. 151 words and nary a mention of your favourite “b” word.topic. Doesn’t that make you feel so much cleaner?
Meaning of life is what people attribute to it. So secular humanists and atheists will live for the moment (many hedonistically but as long as it doesn’t hurt you why should it bother you) Christians will relish the love and companionship of a personal relationship with Jesus their Saviour and Muslims will live for the purpose of spreading their dull, woman-subjugating, freedom-curbing religion throughout the world. And continue to envy those who work hard, live long, sing, dance and love.
Meaning of life is what people attribute to it ??????
So you admit that there is no objective meaning of life …it’s just a subjective matter …. Meaning that there is no truth about meaning of life ……..
So if people think hedonistic life is a meaningful life ….does that subjective attitude make it objectively true ?????
No wonder …this hollow ideology is facing existential threat …
islam is dull and christianity is love ??? …but why churches are abandoned in the west ??….
Of course there is truth about the meaning of life and every person alive can tell you what they believe it to be. Will the Shia tell you the same “truth” as the Sunni? Will either “truth” accord with Ahmadi or Sufi belief?
Shia …Sunni …Ahmadi …won’t dispute about the absolute existence of one god …
While in the west … atheism and theism …the two opposite and contrast position ….are both accommodated …
hahahahahahahahahaha….
Have you not heard of ex-Muslims? They believe, until they don’t. And then their life is in danger. Most of the world thinks that a special sort of stupid. Do we misunderstand? Are they merely being chastised for their own good? Like we treat small children so they learn what is good for them?
ex-muslims …. and muslims …..
both can’t be true at the same time …
Which one do you want to foster & promote ?? …hahahahaha
You do suffer a serious case of logic failure from time to time Semur. Shame. What do you not understand about the state of change?
Semur you’re retarded but at least you’re a happy one.
Syphillis is better than pisslam.
Why insult syphilis? … ;-))
OK, then, whale sh*t, that is the bottom of the ocean.
how long have you been infected by syphillis ????
Muslum make the funneh!
Since your that wild night with your mom.
GAYS AND ATHEIST IN THE USA JUST LOVE DEFENDING AND FUNDING THE VERY PEOPLE WHO WOULD KILL THEM ON SITE . JUST LOOK AT THE RESPONSE WHEN THE MUSLIM KILLED 50 OF THEIR BRETHREN IN FLORIDA AT THE NIGHT CLUB . WITHIN DAYS THEY WERE DEFENDING THE ISLAMICS WHILE PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS CONDEMNING THE MURDERS . AND TO TOP IT OFF THEY WENT AFTER THE GUN USED NOT THE SLIME BAG MUSLIM .
Interesting. Atheism is the fastest growing religion in the Western Hemisphere. How many America atheists want to get a ticket and fly to Saudi Arabia to defend this man’s inalienable right to life?
Whoops! I didn’t see the word atheist before I posted. I doubt if any one of them are trying to get a ticket out of here to SA.
That’s okay. When it comes to Islam, Christians, Jews and Atheists are in the same infidel boat, marked for destruction.
I originally posted “I’ll pass” when you referenced going to SA, and if that popped up in your inbox, I just wanted to correct myself because I’m anything but an atheist.
Well if you would learn to read, it just might help! But do you really want to know all the bad news? LOL! Hey Brother, long time no see, how are you?
Hey there Tilt! I’m hanging in, and hopefully you’re doing much better too. Haven’t heard from Keystone in ages, don’t know what he’s up to these days. Take care, my friend, and stay well.
Well I shook off my stroke and ended up with bladder cancer! I’m fighting it off with Naturals cures after having 2 surgeries, It started up at the size of a hard ball, and was high risk and now it’s low risk! So I’m looking at beating it completely! No more GMO’s and only the natural cures! One person is suggesting Turpentine in small doses, but I’m not using it just yet! Look it up, it is really taken by many! I got really tired of being poked, stabbed and inspected and neglected by Obumers medical teams! And they still haven’t fixed my leaky heart valve! But other than putting up with this crap I’m doing Great! LOL! BTW, did you ever see this video on liberals? It’s great!
https://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?feature=player_detailpage&v=EUzMPlQb2G4
Blessings my Friend!
I’m so sorry to hear all this Tilt. I just took it for granted that you didn’t post that much anymore. I don’t either, so I guess I just figured you were doing the same. I never heard of taking turpentine, Tilt, and I think that would be quite dangerous. I’m not surprised that some people take it, but I wouldn’t if I were you.
Considering your risk is now low you might beat it altogether. I believe in natural cures too, but you’re better off not getting involved with all this off the wall stuff. I’ll be rooting for you pal, and I’ll say some prayers on your behalf. God knows who I mean when I say Tilt! The man upstairs knows everything.
I’ll check out that video, and in the meantime, take care of yourself! God bless you Tilt.
Thanks brother! and no I’m not planning on using it, I just found it interesting and even a doctor was talking about it on a talk show! Google it, a lot of info on it and it is fun reading! Yah, I’ve been fighting with this crap since Nov. after my stroke, but I’ll get past it and kick it in the hind end! I learned a lot in the past few months. Like anyone that has a stroke gets Lipitor, high cholesterol or not! The thing is it’s a statin drug and depletes your body’s CO-Q10. Q-10 is what supports your heart function. SO it makes one wonder about people that have a stroke and a few years later they have a heart attack. You’ve really got to check on everything they give you! And then check your Hospital billing for over charges! Well I hope everything is good with you, it’s nice talking to you again! I wish and pray you are well!
That video is pretty darn good, hits the nail on the head!
Blessing!
You’ll be in my prayers, brother! You can count on it.
Thanks Brother, I need all the help I can get!
Blessings!
Thanks for the link, Tilt. Take care, buddy!
Love it, Tilt. It is great.
Atheism is void ideology ….
What kind of bond do US atheist have with those in communist countries ??? …NONE …
Atheism is popular in America because there is no persecution. Good ole’ Uncle Joe (FDR’s label) from 1924-1953 developed a system of solutions to ensure his dictatorship was not compromised by wannabes. Like gulags in Siberia.
atheism is just a transitional state …because its a state of void …
Just look at europe now …
Well, it is a relief valve for those who are angry at or otherwise frustrated with organized religion – by whatever flavor.
Saudi Arabia wouldn’t let them board a plane inbound to there. Even if they somehow got in, they’d be detained as invaders seeking to overthrow the country to take its oil fields for the West. Fairly or not, the strict Islamic law is there to deter invaders.
Indeed. Saudi Arabia knows enough about the Bible to know Mount Sinai is in Arabia, not the Sinai Peninsula. A video detailed that this place is very well guarded by fanatic Saudi guards who have been instructed to prevent outside access to this holy mount at all cost.
Bu,bu,but atheists tell me all religions are the same?
Atheism and theism cant be both true at the same time …..
Constitution which allow its people to freely choose atheism or theism is a stupid constitution …
Constitution who dont have a stong conviction over what is right ..what is wrong … is a ladyboy constitution …..
Be a real man ….. hahahahaha…
muslims are all cowards ,they do not know what a man is, until one kills them. muslims are like feminists, they are shrill and shriek, but cannot do anything unless they are in a pack. No muslim nation can even produce enough food for itself, they have to buy it pr depend of Christian charity, islam is a culture of starving diseased beggars in streets that are owned by others.
…;)
Good!
“Be a real man”. I am. I guess that’s why I am a Christian…and no…not all Christians are weak and meek. The Lord does not want us to be that way.
In the end, followers of Jesus Christ (Yeshua HaMachiach) win this battle hands down: Revelation 19:15.
But.. but.. Israeli is the apartheid state! The media said so!
Israel is a party state , so the msm is almost partly right .
I don’t care anymore if Israel persecutes the muslum squatters in Israel.
No more funding, no more association, no more inclusion. Stay away from that bunch and disband the UN
nice place, that Saudi Arabia
Sentenced to death for atheism…islamic law(sharia) strikes, again. Can you imagine what would be said if Christianity did this? (And don’t bring up the “inquisition” that was carried out by the RC church in or around the middle ages…”THAT” was not Christianity) Just think about it…all you atheists, LGBT people and the like. If islam and therefore sharia law takes hold in the U.S. the death sentence will, eventually, be carried out here…for those particular “crimes” and blasphemies. So…think hard about it. You may not like Christians, but…Christians will not put you to death or beat you for these “crimes”. Think about the whippings and other punishments handed out under sharia.(No more trips to the local “watering hole” for some suds) Life and our freedoms…at least those we still have left…will be gone…forever.
When the U.S. embarks in the untapped oil in our own backyard and strike big time, that will be enough to drive a rusty railroad spike into the islamic world and presto….islam suckin’ like a pro! LOL!!
Agreed. They’ll be back in the goat business overnight.
Except for the nuclear weapons that Pakistain has already and Iran may soon have I’d agree w/you.
I concur neighbor
At least in the US the First Amendment allows a citizen to make a public fool of themselves if they so desire, hence the presence of mosques.
Either nuke Mecca, or find a way to sterilize all Muslims. They cannot live in a civilized world. Someone needs to end this crap once and for all. C’mon, Israel. You can do it.
When the Useful Idiots are no longer useful …
HERE IN THE USA THE ATHEIST , FREEDOM FROM RELIGION FOUNDATION AND OTHER CHRISTIAN HATING MUSLIM LOVING GROUPS WANT TO KILL US CHRISTIANS OFF. AND THERE IN SAUDI ARABIA THEY ARE KILLING ATHEIST ???? STRANGE WORLD WE LIVE IN AIN’T IT . ATHEIST IN THE USA SUPPORTING THE VERY ISLAMICS THAT WILL KILL THEM ON SITE IF GIVEN THE CHANCE BUT WANTING TO DO AWAY WITH THE VERY CHRISTIANS WHO HAVE STOOD BETWEEN THEM AND THE EVIL THAT IS ISLAM FOR CENTURIES. .
The genetically challenged Prince Charles some weeks ago gave a speech exulting Islam and Muslims. He called Islam a Religion of Peace. He then went on to admonish Christian England for its intolerance. I believe it is perfect timing to interview the ‘Man’ so he can expand on his ideas. It prove most interesting and reinforce the axiom that be borders on the insane.
It’s a shame we can’t get a hold of QIIs entire speech on her 75 years at the Crown before they shut her down. I truly believe she was going to expose those ‘Men’ she talked about and let Her People down by allowing the take over of England by Muslims. They probably drugged her for the 3 days no one saw her.
“Truth is the new hate-speech.”
