The practice of killing gays is alive and well in many Muslim countries. The penalty for homosexuality is death in Islam. See HERE. The Taliban will certainly implement the directives in these texts with the utmost barbarity. The LGBT+ community will have to hide for their lives. The Taliban has already vowed to “crush gay men to death by pushing walls onto them.”
While “progressives” have been busy castigating Israel and the West, while capitulating to Islamic supremacists, gays do not live in fear for their lives in Western countries or Israel, as those countries uphold human rights and equality. Leftist women’s rights and gay activists have a blind spot when it comes to Islam.
“Taliban will ‘weed out and exterminate’ LGBT+ people in Afghanistan, warns exiled gay author,” by Patrick Kelleher, Pink News, August 17, 2021:
Gay Afghan author Nemat Sadat has warned that the Taliban will “weed out and exterminate” the LGBT+ community in Afghanistan following their seismic takeover.
There has been significant concern for the safety and wellbeing of women, girls and LGBT+ people in Afghanistan after the extremist militant group seized power.
The Taliban is expected to enforce its extreme interpretation of Sharia law across Afghanistan, which would see many women, LGBT+ people persecuted. Under it, queer people and women could be sentenced to death.
Speaking to PinkNews, Sadat said there is “no telling” how bad the situation will become for LGBT+ Afghans stuck in the country under Taliban rule.
Sadat and his family left Afghanistan when he was still a baby and they ultimately settled in the United States. In 2012, he returned to his birth city of Kabul to work as a professor of political science at the American University of Afghanistan (AUAF).
Widespread anti-LGBT+ sentiment meant that it was impossible for him to settle there. Warlords spread rumours that he was a practicing homosexual. Sadat reacted to the rumours by advocating for LGBT+ rights on campus and in his classroom.
Shortly afterwards, the Taliban got involved. The extremist group wrote a manifesto claiming AUAF had “become a bastion of gays and lesbians” because of Sadat’s activism, adding that he should be “targeted and killed”…..

Appropriately and bitterly ironically humorous, CES.
Which takes me to this point which I know you already know so well, i.e. Western Leftists in our era, taken as a group, are some of the most clueless, foolish, narcissistic, destructive, control-freakish and ignorant group of people who have ever lived. Indeed, they might actually be “first” in this category.
The West continues to descend far more from within than from without. Western Leftism is evidence of this (so is cowardice from forever wishy-washy moderates and faux conservatives).
Biden’s appalling Presidency is indicative of this descent. And what has happened to education and the media in the West is dispositive of just how self-destructive (and stupid) the West has become. Meanwhile, parasites aplenty, which would include the Islamic world and the heinous regime now running China, are salivating at the collapse of the West. You bet they are.
CogitoErgoSum says
Remember the first day back at school from summer vacation and meeting your new teacher? Here is an example of how many too many of our teachers think today. Note how she dresses and how she talks. Her jeans and sweat shirt make her look like a slob, she calls her own parents idiots and tells her students that they are smarter than their own parents and they don’t have to listen to what their parents say. At least the teacher was fired but his type of mentality is taking over our schools and it may be too late to stop it.

CogitoErgoSum says
Oh no. Did I misgender this teacher? Maybe. I don’t know.
Wellington says
Thanks for that link, CES. Yes, she is not only a slob the way she dresses, she is (and which is far worse) a slob the way she thinks.
This is dispositive, re this highly deficient teacher, of a very major problem in our time, to wit, we have mediocrities or worse instructing children. If a society does not correct this, then that society by this alone is in profoundly deep trouble. Couple this with the fact that the people governing us are, for the most part, buffoons (e.g., Biden, Pelosi and Schumer) and we are indeed deep in a metaphorical Grimpen Mire, a la The Hound of the Baskervilles, from which there may be no extraction.
It just seems to get worse. I do hope, as I’m sure you do, that it is darkest right before the dawn.
CogitoErgoSum says
As I watch this teacher indoctrinating her students I can’t help but wonder what subject is she supposed to be teaching her students? Is it math, English, chemistry or (even better) health and nutrition? What does her own personal view on politics have to do with accomplishing her original mission of conveying knowledge about the subject of her class? What is going on with our educational system?
As for this gay author and his desire to make it easier for Afghans to be gay, I can’t help but wonder why is he concentrating on just being free to be gay? Couldn’t he also encourage freedom of choice and freedom of religion or being free to have no religion? Why is being gay so important to him? I looked at his website and it shows that he has an upcoming book called “Keeping Up with the Hepburns” and it says it is about “a gay vegan spiritual warrior [who] meets his twin flame after he moves with his piglet to Washington D.C. at the dawn of the Trump era.” Yeah.
I’m all for fighting against Islam but it’s also important to me what comes after it. I’m not sure that what comes after Islam in Afghanistan will be any better and I have a feeling that once this fellow has helped get rid of Islam he will help get rid of every other religion as well – except his own. I can only say I would not support killing anyone for being gay but that is as far as I will go. We need to pay more attention to just what we are fighting to achieve.
Wellington says
Indeed, CES, the world is terribly out of joint. I’m skeptical it will ever get back to being “in joint.” Once open Pandora’s Box and there is no closing it.
Seems the “problematical” species, Homo sapiens, is ready to explore all possibilities while not comprehending that doing so is not a total positive—actually far from it. Modern Western Leftists are leading the way in this idiotic pursuit, aided by Muslims and your standard authoritarians like Xi and Putin.
Time for pork and beer. I’m sure you’ll understand why.

Thanks for that appalling link, CogitoErgoSum.
Kepha says
I don’t worry about Afghan gays. I’m sure the Talebs who can’t kidnap a woman or girl, or who are squeezed out because they are not wealthy enough and cannot compete with the better-paid commanders, will look out for their bacha bazi boys.
gravenimage says
Kepha, your idea that all Gay people want to rape little boys is quite mistaken.
James Lincoln says
gravenimage,
I’m sure that a *very small* percent of gays are pedophiles.
But…
All the ones that I have worked with, treated as patients, etc., were definitely NOT.
gravenimage says
Thanks, James. Agree.
Kepha says
Bacha bazi is done with a teen;
Such as was done by Terry Bean,
Also done by Harvey Milk,
And modern heroes of their ilk.

This is not a teen–this is a little boy done up in makeup to be raped by Muslims:

John says
He was a dead man no matter who rules Afghanistan. It’s all in their book.
PMK says
Has Sadat renounced Islam or does he still practice Islam in all other areas? If the latter is the case, I don’t care what this man says or thinks. Does he practice all other forms of sharia? Does he support Islamic imperialism? If so, he’s a hypocrite. Odds are he is going to tell us that we should automatically grant refugee status to all Muslims who identify as LGBTQ.
VarAway says
Perfect reply! Thank you.
I’m sorry, but I couldn’t care less about this Sadat person.
He KNOWS the risk when returning to his ” home ” country.
And now telling us how precarious his situation is, or will become.
He will be the FIRST to jump on the rescue plane, rest assured!
Why?
Because he is frantically waving with his US Passport…….!
Just another woke idiot, begging to be rescued from his fellow savages….
Anna Yelena says
Ex Muslim.
PMK says
Are you sure he is an ex-Muslim?
PMK says
Commenting on his LGBT activism in an interview for The Guardian in November 2013, Sadat said, I am making a sacrifice, but I want Afghan youth to look at me and see that there are people who are Afghan and Muslim and gay. It will give them hope.
Wellington says
Yeah, you summarized it well, PMK. This guy is another Irshad Manji and trying to square totalitarianism with liberty (especially liberty abused and uninformed) is never a winning strategy.
It’s all so very simple, to wit, freedom is grand, self-discipline must accompany freedom, and never should totalitarian ideologies be thought to be compatible with liberty. Doing otherwise is evidence of foolhardiness of the first order.
gravenimage says
PMK, Sadat has indeed come out as an ex-Muslim.
PMK says
You’re right. He does claim to be an ex-Muslim. But does it matter?
He thinks America is racist. He demeans the American dream. When his book was rejected by many publishers he blamed it on racism. Then he took writing courses and honed his skills and reworked his novel and suddenly the book was accepted.
The man is all over the place. He claims the LGBTQ+ community in America is even more racist than the general population. If so, why would he want gay Muslims to come here?

Kepha says
Well said, PMK.
Now, from the world of ‘Murkin Ejjimuhkashun, we are now told that when a confused teen think’s he’s the other sex, we needa see dat idennidy as his authentic self. Marx wrote about alienation: now we’re alienated from our very own chromosomes. Is it any wonder ur forces were bested by tribals?

Yes–if he hates the civilized Infidel nation that has given him sanctuary this is stilll a problem.

Gay Afghan author warns: Taliban will ‘weed out,’ ‘exterminate’ LGBT community
…………….
Of course, even under the last regime homosexuality was illegal and prosecutable, and “Honor Killings” were allowed if the victim was gay. This is mainstream Islam.
Nemat Sadat himself had to flee Afghanistan for the US in 2013 when it became suspected that he was gay. He has had death Fatwas from the Mullahs there.
After the Orlando Nightclub Jihad, he announced that he is ex-Muslim. Good for him for leaving that vicious creed.
Ray Fowler says
with the “trans” stupidity sweeping america, i must honestly say the less of them the better.
I disagree with muslims on so many different grounds, but on this particular subject, i could not give a damn, if they are to take a swan dive off a tall building, will not bother me one bit.
Kepha says
It’s not stupidity. It’s madness, in which the patient has lost everything but his reason.
gravenimage says
Ray, if you believe that Muslims only target gay people, you are much mistaken.
Then, even if you care nothing for gay people–as is obvious–you should know that Muslims also target men who read poetry or listen to music or wear goatees as “homosexual” as well–really, is this the world you want to live in? *Ugh*.
B.Thorp says
We will soon start seeing people getting pushed of the tops of high buildings to their deaths, as this is the preferred method of punishment Islam recommends for homosexuals. Just watch out on Utube.
SKA says
Dear CES:
The Utah teacher was supposedly teaching biology.
Interesting observations about her slovenly dress and other lack of professional demeanor.
tgusa says
“Gay Afghan author warns: Taliban will ‘weed out,’ ‘exterminate’ LGBT.”
Meanwhile, the lgbt community in America are complaining about and prefer to destroy their horrible predicament in the USA.
Newsflash;
Not everyone in the world is down for your struggle. They don’t care if you are noticed. In most parts of the world Sex and Sexuality is private and something that should be restricted to the bedroom. That is just the way that it is.
E. Maria says
Sorry, but this is the only thing I can say I agree with the Islamic terrorists. The ‘homosexual movement’ is what is bringing down the United States. We have rotted from within and that’s how the enemy will over take us. When a nation keeps legalizing sin like, Abortion, Euthanasia, no fault Divorce, and Sodomy, that nation has no one to blame but itself.
Great Civilizations in the past fell because of the killing of the unborn and Sodomy.

Note that this poster doesn’t consider *murdering* gay people to be a problem. **Ugh**.
