British military called on to strip the Sultan of Brunei of honorary appointments awarded to him by the Queen, as backlash against new anti-LGBT laws grows

• The British military is under pressure to strike out honors given to the Sultan of Brunei, after the Asian state introduced death by stoning as a punishment for homosexuality.
• The Sultan, Brunei's head of state, was made an honorary Air Chief Marshal in the Royal Air Force and an Admiral in the Royal Navy by Queen Elizabeth II.
• On Friday, Stephen Evans, CEO of the National Secular Society, demanded the titles be removed so the UK would not be complicit in "medieval barbarism."
• A global boycott of Brunei-owned enterprise is underway, with Deutsche Bank, Virgin Australia, and the London Underground all taking action.

"The Sultan, Brunei's head of state, was made an honorary Air Chief Marshal in the Royal Air Force and an Admiral in the Royal Navy by Queen Elizabeth II." Worthless titles, with no experience.
The bit about stoning homosexuals to death is Extreme.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Those damned Asians and their Sharia law!

""Stripping the sultan of the honours they have bestowed upon him would send out the important message that they do not wish to be in any way associated with this sort of medieval barbarism."


Medieval Barbarism?

Where have these people been? It is not Medieval! It is the way of Islam, Sharia law and it's goal for society.
Brunei did not just become an Islamic Nation. It appears the author and or the critics may have just read the hadith for the first time.

While Leviticus let people know that the first followers of Abraham were to view homosexual acts with abomination, Jesus pretty much told the Christian to not judge,
to mind your own business. Mohammad on the other hand, doubled down on the Mosaic law. In one of his hadiths, The Throne of God trembles when a man mounts another man.

No new information here. Unless of course, there is a new page in history about to begin for the British. You can't practice the Islamic religion and adhere to Islamic law
and the law of the British empire. Choose.

I suspect the day will come when a few of our Congress people will also face the same choice. You can't be faithful to Sharia and the US Constitution both, although we do have some that have taken the oath to the Constitution. But they sure seem to continue with the adherence to Islam. Which will it be?
