However if this were Christians doing it to Muslims....well....we all know how that would go over!

Pregnant woman to be flogged, hanged for marrying Christian | New York Post
Predictably, no one here in our audience has made any such assertions.

Much to your in-search-of-victimhood disappointment, I'm guessing.

You know there is a possibility she was rearrested to get her out of harms way. Mob rule might have been in the making.

Another possibility is anti-Islamic Media jumped to conclusions

Quote:
A Sudanese woman freed from death row on Monday has been released again after being briefly detained with her family at Khartoum airport.

Meriam Ibrahim was sentenced in May to hang for renouncing Islam, sparking widespread outrage at home and abroad.

About 40 security agents detained Mrs Ibrahim - along with her husband, Daniel Wani and two children - at the airport, the sources said.

But Sudan has told the US that she and her family have now been released.

"They were temporarily detained for several hours over questions related to their documents," Marie Harf, a spokeswoman for the US state department, told journalists.

Sudan's government had assured the US that Mrs Ibrahim and her family were safe, Ms Harf added.

She said the US is working with Sudan to ensure their safe passage out of the country.

We have had two world wars over a FLAG...nothing to do with religion. How many wars have we had since WW2...again not over religion. If a bird pooped on you, you would blame it on religion.

Seriously though, look back in history, and a whole lot of this crap has happened, I just hope one day the world will grow up and stop believing in fantasies so we can move forward.

You don't have to wait for the rest of us. Just move ahead now. Build your new world order. Christians are waiting...it's called the end times.

Don't worry, you will have your time at killing us...it is written.

I said this before on a similar thread, I think in Current Events, but there is more to this story than we are being told. Why did her husband leave her in harms way before coming to the US? Why didn't he resettle her and his children before taking off? Why did he leave at all knowing what could happen? It was incredibly irresponsible for him to leave behind a Christian woman and (now) two children knowing that she could be persecuted.

Money does strange things. She is a very wealthy woman, is a doctor and among other things owns a shopping Mall and a General store. Sounds like the whole issue is really about who can get her money.

From an older News story
