Pakistan: 16-year-old Ahmadi expelled from school, clerics pressing for “blasphemy” charges against him and his father
Even the newspaper and the reporter covering the story have been threatened. Blasphemy charges against students and minors may emerge as an unfortunate new trend to blackmail non-Muslims and minority Islamic sects in Pakistan. Accusing the minor involves the entire family, threatening to ruin the future of the minor and the lives of his or […]

Iran: New “family protection bill” will let men take second wife without permission from the first, allows unlimited temporary marriages
“It’s called the double standard … Don’t knock it “” we got the long end of the stick on that one.” – Ayatollah Hank Hill, King of the Hill Oh, yes. This will lead to much happier, more stable families. What could possibly go wrong? Among the many measures imposed by the Islamic Republic, this […]
Somalia: Aid agencies banned on charges of “misappropriating funds, collecting data, and promoting secularism, immorality and the ‘degrading values of democracy in an Islamic country'”
People will die, and al-Shabaab does not care. Controlling the flow of aid allows them to starve out resistance. The charge of “misappropriating funds” is particularly curious. It’s certainly not al-Shabaab’s money that groups like UNICEF and the World Health Organization were spending, but clearly, al-Shabaab has made it their business to mind the business […]
