HOW MUSLIM COUNTRIES TREAT GAYS

The left wingers are spouting gibberish about this having nothing to do with Islam or Muslim beliefs. Bullshit. Muslims hate gays and think they should die for their lifestyles. It’s their law.

10 nations where the penalty for gay sex is death

By Colin StewartTen nations with large Muslim populations have laws providing for the death penalty for same-sex activity.

Only a few actually impose the death sentence. Exactly how many is a difficult question.

The 2016 State-Sponsored Homophobia report from ILGA, the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association, lists 13-14 places that threaten the death penalty for homosexuality, including the basic 10 plus several specific variations:

  • One where executions occur — and go unpunished — despite the fact that there is no death-penalty law (Iraq);
  • One that has approved a death-penalty provision but has not yet incorporated it into the nation’s laws (Brunei);
  • One that conducts executions but is not recognized as a nation (the Islamic State, also known as Daesh, ISIS and ISIL);
  • One where, in theory, a particular interpretation of its laws would provide for the death penalty but, in practice, no executions have been reported (United Arab Emirates)

The ILGA list is quite similar to this blog’s list of those 14 countries, printed below:

A best-information-available list of countries/regions where executions for homosexual activity are carried out or are provided by current or future law:

Nations with such laws on the books; executions have been carried out

1. Iran
2. Saudi Arabia

Nations with such laws on the books; no recent executions reported

3. Sudan
4. Yemen

Nations with such laws on the books in part of the country; no verified executions for homosexual activity

5. Nigeria
6. Somalia

Nations with such laws on the books; no executions reported

7. Afghanistan
8. Mauritania
9. Pakistan
10. Qatar

Those are the “ten nations with large Muslim populations” mentioned in this article’s first paragraph.” In addition, executions and possible executions are an issue in four other places:

Nation with no such a law on the books; executions are carried out by militias and others

11.  Iraq

Not recognized as a nation; carries out executions

12. Daesh/the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL)

The Sultan of Brunei, Hassanal Bolkiah

The Sultan of Brunei, Hassanal Bolkiah

Nation where such a law was scheduled to take effect in 2016 (but might not)

13. Brunei Darussalam

Nation where some interpretations of existing law would provide for the death penalty, but no executions have been reported

14. United Arab Emirates

News coverage in all of those nations is unreliable at best, so specific evidence of executions for same-sex intimacy is rare.  What’s known about some specific countries is cited below.

In Somaliaa gay teenager was reportedly stoned to death in 2013, but those reports have not been verified.

In Nigeria, the BBC reported in 2007, “More than a dozen Nigerian Muslims have been sentenced to death by stoning and for sexual offences ranging from adultery and homosexuality. But none of these death sentences have actually been carried out as they were either thrown out on appeal or commuted to prison terms as a result of pressure from human rights groups.”

In Sudan, the death penalty is in frequent use, but there are no recent reports of executions for same-sex intimacy.  In 2014, Sudan ranked at No. 6 worldwide in number of executions (23+) for various offenses, just below the United States, with 35, according to Amnesty International.

Similarly, Yemen is No. 7 in frequency of executions overall, but the death penalty apparently has not been imposed recently for homosexual activity.   Researchers for Canada’s Immigration and Refugee Board reported more than 10 years ago, “Information on whether such sentences have been carried out was not found.” More recently an article on Yemen’s gay community in The Tower magazine stated, “Traditionally, that death penalty is not enforced, but citizens have been imprisoned for their sexual orientation.”

Saudi Arabia is  No. 3 among the world’s most avid executioners, with 90+ in 2014.  At least in the past, beheadings were imposed for homosexual behavior, including three men in 2002. Imprisonment and lashings are a more common punishment for same-sex activity.

Iran is No. 2 in the world for frequency of executions, behind China.  Those include executions for homosexual activity, although the facts are often unclear or misrepresented in such cases. (See, for example, “Bogus hanging in Iran, bogus tweets in Egypt” and “Series of public hangings in Iran, including 2 for sodomy.”)

Evidence is a bit clearer about two war-torn areas — Iraq and the territory controlled by  Daesh/the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL).  The ILGA report of 2015 noted that “Iraq, although [the death penalty is] not in the civil code, clearly has judges and militias throughout the country that issue the death sentence for same-sex sexual behaviours. … We are also aware that in the Daesh(ISIS/ISIL)-held areas the death penalty is implemented (although a non-State actor, it is listed in the report). ” For examples, see:

In some nations, the death penalty is on the books but is not imposed. ILGA in 2015 stated:

Brunei Darussalam is due to activate the death penalty for same-sex sexual acts in 2016, but it seems likely that like Pakistan, Afghanistan and Qatar although it is on the statute, it will not be implemented.

ILGA reported in 2016 about Brunei: “there is no sign that the threatened death penalty is to be implemented.”

According to the U.S. Department of State, Mauritania belongs in this category too.  A U.S. Department of State cable from 2009, released by WikiLeaks in 2011, indicated that Mauritania has never imposed the death penalty for homosexual activity or any other crime.

ILGA reported in 2016 that “although is understood that the United Arab Emirates has not implemented [the death penalty] under the Sharia code, it remains a possibility under interpretations current in the Emirates.”

The non-apologies of evil people who just aren’t quite evil enough to run an evil country, but managed to produce evil offspring who commit the exact kind of evil the parent is cool with, but would have preferred someone else’s spawn perpetrate.

I used to work for the DoD, and other agencies in the early 70’s. Yeah, they wanted to know what publications you read, groups you were affiliated with. Yeah, they were looking for Commies.

Remember the Weather Underground, Black Panthers, Angela Davis, The Move?

Well we have to do this today. If you go to Islamic web sites, post that shit on line, associate with other known Islamic scum – you’re not getting in here, and if you are here – you’re going back.

As for the father, who can’t speak English, after being in this country at least 25 years (my guess, by the age of the shooter) – WTF has the guy been doing for the last 25 years, not to know some English? Apparently he doesn’t work. Someone should find out what kind of entitlements this bastard is getting.

Freedom of speech does not include aliens trying to undermine our way of life.

After 9/11/2001, Saudi Arabia should have been spanked severely since 19 or the 20 high-jackers were Saudi citizens and certainly must have been involved regardless of how. The Saudi families that boogied out of the USA on Sept. 9th and 10th in anticipation of 9/11 obviously knew what was going down, yet we hear, have heard and will hear nothing of their web of deceit with the high-jackers because we must keep oil flowing to Europe from Saudi.

Geopolitics is a bastard to manage on any level with people, children, dogs and cats sacrificed uncaringly to further the goals of those ever migrating elites that run the place (or try to).

Gay sex punishable by death.
So I guess but-fucking little boys ok since it is rape and not gay sex?

From my limited understanding of Islam, it’s gay sex with other Muslim’s that is forbidden. Non-Muslim’s can be raped, killed, lied to, and whatever with no issue. Feel free to correct me if my understanding is wrong.

The twisted logic of the muslim culture is bizarre.
Whatever excuse may be given for stoning, hanging,
head cutting and etc. is far beside the point. Remember,
stealing is punished (or was) by cutting off the right hand
so the subject would need to eat with his poop hand.
These are not a trustworthy people. Saudis? The kings
and princes have gold toilets flown to the USA for a visit,
but their subjects crap on the street and use their hand to
wipe. And our vets (you may not like them) are cheated
and abused by the gov that recruited them…they are still
our vets. Why are we supporting musloids here with free
$ and services while our people are tossed aside?

Oh, I remember, the reserve currency and Saudi oil deal…
and the wars to promote the Saudi Arabia agenda.

uh, what is your point?
The only conclusion to be drawn here is you must be an extremely lazy, illiterate, and ignorant person. 10 minutes is all the time needed to google information explaining how ALL religions condemn LGBT activity. For Jews, Leviticus gives the penalty: death. For Muslims, the Koran gives the penalty: death. For Christians, Corinthians states it is an abomination, and God has prejudged this to be unholy, ie a sin, the penalty is hell; Revelation states all sinners will be destroyed. True Christians will obey the 10 commandments and not kill, but nowhere in the Bible is stated Christians are to condone the sinful activity: to condone is also to sin.
IF you are a Christian, kindly remember: judge thou not, lest ye be judged; but do act to reverse your government’s act of sin.
