Christian faces death for insulting a noted pedophile

I'm sure everyone already has read about this but I was struck by the bits that I've high-lighted.

I'm so surprised - not!

“She was picking berries with other women, when she was sent to get water,” her husband said. “One of the women refused to drink the water after my wife dipped her cup into the bucket. This woman said it was contaminated because it was touched by a Christian.” According to Masih, all the women then started taunting his wife, and shouting insults against her mother and their children. Bibi just repeated the same insults back at them. “The name of the holy prophet never came up.”

At the time, Masih said he thought that was the end of it. It wasn’t.

“Five days later, the local cleric came to our house, followed by an angry mob, and dragged my wife away,” he said, recalling the incident that took place in June 2009. They beat her, ripped off her clothes and accused her of insulting the prophet. Then they locked her up in a house until the police came to take her away.”

In an interview with NBC News, Qari Muhammed Salem, the local cleric in Ittan Walli, accused Masih of lying. “I talked to everyone who witnessed this incident and she is guilty,” he said. “She confessed to the crime in front of the entire village and then she begged for forgiveness,” he insisted.

“She even told me she said these things in rage during a heated argument and would never think of blasphemy,” he said. Salem said he called the police to lock her up, only to protect her, because the angry mob would have killed her.

Najma Yousaf, a sister of Bibi, still lives in the family home in Ittan Walli, a rural village of approximately 10,000 inhabitants, almost all Muslim. “I’m not afraid to live in our house,” she said. “The villagers are all very nice with me, my husband and our children. They are angry with my sister.”

The story can be boiled down to:

An angry humorless Mahomedan harridan insulted the Christian lady who spat back insults in a typical bitch fight. Mad imam even says Christian lady was simply angry and didn't intend blasphemy. There are more Mahomedan hens than Christian hens?

Basically a tale of which noble savage - aka superstitious illiterate peasant - has the bigger gang of thugs hens and which hens have the biggest cock. And the biggest cock in Islam is usually the mad imam.

And they've got the cheek to call rednecks uncivilized!
