This student downloaded and distributed an article criticizing the oppression of women by Islamic fundamentalists. Apparently someone complained and he was convicted of blasphemy without a trial and is sentenced to be executed.
Now, I’m not going to discuss the sides about getting involved with other countries’ governments (although isn’t that what the UN is all about?). Nor am I going to criticize Islam or any of their beliefs. However, I will say this: these people are so incredibly different than us that we are incompatible. They should not be brought into a world government organized by the west. we shouldn’t be there trying to help them attain democracy. Their economy should not be joined with ours.
Incompatible.
