Conservative Egypt

Post by Black Orchid » Tue Jan 22, 2019 10:11 am

An Egyptian television presenter has been sentenced to one year of hard labour for interviewing a gay man, as authorities crackdown on the LGBT community.

An Egyptian court has sentenced a TV presenter to a year in prison for interviewing a gay sex worker on his show.

Mohammed el-Gheiti was found guilty of encouraging immorality over an August 2018 segment in which the guest described his profession.

The gay man’s identity was hidden.

El-Gheiti, who can appeal the ruling, was fined around $US170 ($A237) and is free pending a final verdict.

The charges stem from a complaint filed by a private lawyer.

The TV host had himself reportedly expressed views against homosexuality in the past.

Egypt has waged a crackdown on perceived homosexuality in recent years, imprisoning people on vague charges of “debauchery”.

Homosexuality is not a crime in Egypt, but is widely seen as taboo in the conservative, Muslim-majority country. Prostitution is illegal.


In September 2017, authorities arrested dozens of people after several waved an LGBT rainbow flag at a Cairo concert.

Islamophobic racist bigot!

This is what I don't understand. Left wingers defend this religion despite it being much harsher than Christianity in terms of discrimination and persecution.

The thing I don't understand is...

The LGBTIQSELFISH mob are generally supportive of Islam

Gays make up many of the numbers of those who protest against anyone who challenges the dangers of Islam.

And yet, SHOUKD Islam ever manage to gain control in Australia

It's the LGBTIQSELFISH who will be the first in their sights to attack.

Gays have a seriously hard time in muzzo countries
Brick walls
Thrown off buildings
Beheaded etc, etc.

Now,
Perhaps it's because they are mentally ill.
Perhaps because they think they may be treated differently for supporting islam
Perhaps they are too afraid to challenge Islam.

What ever the reason
They will be seriously disappointed when they are punished for Being gay.
I have a dream
A world free from the plague of Islam
A world that has never known the horrors of the cult of death.
My hope is that in time, Islam will be nothing but a bad dream

Gay leftists are naive. They assume that because they believe in a "free democratic society" (only when it suits them) will apply to all other "oppressed" groups and they can hold hands in a circle and wave rainbow flags together.

When confronted with the realities of Islam, they will brush it off as "hysterical paranoia" or make excuses along the lines of, "it's culture".

They have never really had to contend with Muslims. Their "enemy" has always been the white Christian.

They have no idea that Islam is a billion times worse than a modernized "moderate" Christianity.

Interestingly, I attended an Aboriginal Mental Health First Aid Course last year. One of those who attended was a gay aboriginal bloke. Someone asked the question, "What's it like to be gay in aboriginal culture?"

To which many replied that it wasn't accepted, taboo and gay first people were made to feel shame.
