Death Penalty For Converting to Christianity - In Afghanistan

-- by Dave Johnson

Good Job Bush the Incompetent: Conversion to Christianity could bring death penalty in Bush's Afghanistan. Story here and here.

This with Americans still fighting in Afghanistan!

And where did blue meme hear about this?

The only reason I know about this story is because I heard about it on BBC World News in the car -- most major U.S. news outlets have ignored it.
Further discussion at Below the Beltway.

Of course, this is what is coming in Iraq, too. Iraq was a secular country under Saddam. But now we've put in place a Shiite government alied with Iran... Conservatives, for some reason, are surprised that the results of "bringing democracy to the Middle East" (I think that was reason #47, floated after reason #46 didn't sell...) might not have been in America's interests!
