Chron.com | Afghan Convert Sent to Notorious Prison: "POLICHARKI, Afghanistan
— An Afghan man on trial for converting from Islam to Christianity has been moved to a notorious maximum-security prison outside Kabul that is also home to hundreds of Taliban and al-Qaida militants, officials said Sunday."
Yes indeed. The crime of being a Christian has never properly been punished and thanks to the United States of America, Afghanistan is free to use the religion of hate to put a person whose only crime is being Christian into a maximum security prison with Taliban and other crazy violent people. The government of the United States would have hoped that this story went away but it hasn't. I read how Germany and Australia and other countries have 'expressed concern' over this but I still see Abdul Rahman in jail and still facing the death penalty. I can see how effective these protests have been and I can see how the men and women who died in Afghanistan and in Iraq have had their sacrifices for freedom rewarded. Abdul Rahman has begged that he be given a Bible and of course, in freedom loving Afghanistan where Christians must die, his religion and his religious beliefs are not respected and in fact he'll lose his life for those beliefs. Looks like we stopped bombing in Afghanistan too soon and at the very least if we cannot assure freedom of religion in Afghanistan then what the hell are we doing there paying for these people to kill Christians? This is another example of the incompetance of the Bush administration.
