    So sharia law courts would be like Gestapo courts?

    Nope. Way to miss the point. They would be like Beth Din courts.

    I hate to break it to the compiler of that list, but "Der Sturmer" isn't recruiting these days

    Your analogy is a weak argument. The truth of the matter is the stunning similarities between Islam and Germany.

    It's nothing to do with his class. "Poor Tommy" needs to understand that if he wants to live in our country then there are certain laws he needs to obey. Or he can live somewhere else. His choice.

    Oh, the UK high judge said the trial was improper, and we now know that they were trying to kill Tommy in HMP Olney.

    I was more thinking of his persecuted beliefs that mortgage fraud and hitting people are ok

    We knew that you weren't talking about the pit called HMP Olney or the one million Brit little girls raped and pushed into child prostitution in accordance with the Muslim religion.

    Republicans are trying to eliminate human rights as an American objective.

    Trump
    WASHINGTON — The United States withdrew on Tuesday from the world’s most important human rights body in protest of its frequent criticism of Israel’s treatment of Palestinians. It was the latest effort by the Trump administration to pull away from international organizations and agreements that it finds objectionable.

    It was the first time a member has voluntarily left the United Nations Human Rights Council. The United States now joins Iran, North Korea and Eritrea as the only countries that refuse to participate in the council’s meetings and deliberations.
    *****************************************************************************************************************************

    November 21, 2014
    Twenty five years ago this week, 190 member countries of United Nations passed the Convention on the Rights of the Child, a landmark agreement that stands as one of the most ratified human rights treaties in history. The CRC, which turned 25 years old on November 20th, follows the 1959 Declaration of the Rights of the Child, and is the world’s most comprehensive framework for the protection of children’s rights. It includes the right to protection from discrimination based on their parent’s or legal guardian’s sex, race, religion, and a host of other identifiers. The convention supports protections for children from forced labor, child marriage, deprivation of a legal identity, and grants both able-bodied and disabled children the right to health care, education, and freedom of expression. It also has safeguards for parents to take care of their children, including parental leave.

    Only three U.N. countries have not ratified the CRC: Somalia, South Sudan, and…the United States.

    The U.S. signed the treaty under Bill Clinton in 1995, an essentially symbolic agreement with the principles set forth under the treaty. But ratification of any treaty in the United States requires a two-thirds majority vote in the Senate to pass, and a number of Republican senators, claiming concerns about U.S. sovereignty, have consistently opposed ratification..

    July 24, 2009
    The US has not ratified any international human rights treaties since December 2002, when it ratified two optional protocols to the Convention on the Rights of the Child. Since that time, important new treaties have been adopted and other long-standing treaties have gained new member states. Unfortunately, the US has too often remained outside these efforts. For example, the US is the only country other than Somalia that has not ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the most widely and rapidly ratified human rights treaty in history. It is one of only seven countries-together with Iran, Nauru, Palau, Somalia, Sudan and Tonga- that has failed to ratify the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW).

    These and other key treaties that the US has yet to ratify protect some of the world's most vulnerable populations. They would help, for instance, a woman seeking protection by the police from a threatening spouse; a mentally ill prisoner placed in solitary confinement; and a child who has been trafficked into prostitution. The treaties espouse non-discrimination, due process, and other core values that most American unquestionably support. They are also largely consistent with existing US law and practice.

    The failure of the US to join with other nations in taking on international human rights legal obligations has undercut its international leadership on key issues, limiting its influence, its stature, and its credibility in promoting respect for human rights around the world.

    And that's one of the reasons Turkey is pushing back on the Brunson case

    The UN has nothing to do with human rights. Islam has no human rights. Why should we spend time and money on dead ends?

    MP Sarah Champion, based upon the report "The Independence Inquiry into Child Exploitation in Rotherham, 1997-2013."

    The UK is corrupt.

    Didn't know that you read Breitbart--maybe it is only 100,000 instead of a million.

    Here is a story to warm your heart. Swede Elin Ersson stopped a plane from departing from Gothenburg because an Afghan was being deported on the plane. She thought Afghanistan was a horrible place. But the guy she saved had about beat his wife to death and then he beat his children real good. So Afghanistan's loss is Sweden's gain. Don't you love happy stories about Quran believing Muslims? :(:(:(
