Protest outside Saudi Embassy for blogger sentenced to 1,000 lashes for insulting Islam

Raif Badawi criticised clerics and the kingdom’s notorious religious police.

FATHER OF TWO Raif Badawi has been behind bars since 2012 and has been lashed 50 times after setting up the website ‘Saudi Arabian Liberals’.

The 30-year-old criticised senior religious figures in ultra orthodox Saudi Arabia and for that he has been sentenced to 1,000 lashes over 20 weeks and 10 years in prison.

A protest is taking place outside the Saudi Arabian Embassy in Dublin this evening to highlight the inhumane and degrading treatment of Badawi.

The sentence was imposed last September and the blogger received his first flogging of 50 lashes on Friday, January 9 – a few days before his birthday.

The second flogging, due to take place last Friday, was postponed after a medical examiner concluded that his wounds had not healed properly and that he would not be able to withstand another round of lashes at that time.

Amnesty International condemned his punishment as a “vicious act of cruelty”. It’s calling for the public flogging to be halted and Raif to be released immediately.

Badawi’s wife Ensaf Haider has sought asylum in Canada. She says she is not sure that he can survive a second round of lashes.

Speaking last week, she said, “Raif told me he is in a lot of pain after his flogging, his health is poor and I’m certain he will not be able to cope with another round of lashes.

I told our children about the news so that they would not find out about it from friends at school. It is a huge shock for them.

Irish Secretary Séamus Dooley said the event was an opportunity to express solidarity with Raif and other journalists, bloggers and those who are denied their freedom of speech:

The treatment of Raif Badwai is an outrage, an affront to human decency but it has not occurred in isolation.

“In 2014 the IFJ counted 118 journalists killed worldwide. In the Middle East 31 were killed, (12 in Syria, 9 in Palestine, 8 in Iraq).

“In Asia Pacific 35 journalists were killed, including 14 in Pakistan and 9 in Afghanistan.

Over 1,000 journalists have been killed in the last 10 years and governments across the globe have failed to act to protect journalism.

“In protesting at the treatment of Raif we are also calling for action to protect all media workers, as we did last week in Paris.”

The protest is being organised by the National Union of Journalists and Amnesty International and will start at 6pm.

    ISIS is Saudi Arabia’s creation. Dr.Frankenstein’s monster as it were. Decades of worldwide promotion of their Wahabbi brand of Islam in the form of Saudi trained hate preachers, madrassa and mosque building programmes, is finally baring the bitterest of fruits.
    The end result is the Charlie Hedbo massacre, ISIS, Boko Haram, Al Qaeda, 9/11, 7/7. Madrid, Bali, Sharia zones in Western European cities, Islamist school takeovers and much much more.

    Keike, so they don’t exist in Denmark? There’s just small groups who want to do that?

    Sensitive Urban Zones are not classified as such because of a lack of French governmental control there. They are classified as such because of high rates of unemployment, and low rates of high-school graduates. They are classified as Sensitive Urban Zones so they can be targeted with urban renewal policies to target those issues.

    The Sharia patrols have been condemned by politicians from all political parties, by the Church of England, by the police, by the Muslim council of Britain, and by locals. These patrols are only accepted by a small minority of Muslims and by a small minority of the people in the areas in which they’re active. That article even mentions three people jailed for participating in those patrols. How does that make them no-go zones or sharia zones?

    The Saudis are well aware that if they pull out of the petrodollar they will be invaded by the US. Russia have pulled out and if this trend continues you will see the collapse of the US Dollar and very possibly WW3 involving the big players.
    The world is on a razors edge right now and the majority don’t even realise it.

    @scipio – While Iran is far from liberal, their justice system is a lot more thorough when it comes to handing out convictions. Saudi is a complete backwards land.

    Have all the religious apologists gone hiding? Shouldn’t we just respect their beliefs? I mean he insulted Islam that should supersede those pesky human rights.

    Maybe the Pope will pray he can take his “punch” and do a novena to the Ultimate Warrior.

    Religion the unnecessary software of the human mind.

    That’s what really sickens me about the US and their lapdog allies in Europe. They always talk about human rights and democracy especially in countries that stand up to them yet they are allied to one of the most despicable regimes worldwide. The irony of the US war on terror and their closest allies in the Middle East, who they continually supply with weapons, have played a major part in supporting these extremists. What a ridiculous situation!

    There should be protests out side the American embassy over this because they share the same bed with them when it comes to recruiting “moderate” head hackers to fight their proxy middle eastern wars.

    Glen, very close to the point, the whole idea of the ZOG/ Saudi wahabi plot is to break the Shia arc from Hezbollah in Lebanon, Syria WIP, northern Iraq to Iran, Iran being the endgame, watch out for the next phase after Syria. Lebanon.

    Iran has always been their endgame but they know the risk. An outright attack on Iran will bring Russia & China in against the west militarily.

    If their laws are unjust it’s only right that people should protest. I doubt people in Saudi Arabia have that right unfortunately.

    CS. No. That’s easily demolished as an argument. I presume you don’t approve of ISIS throwing gay people off roofs, because it’s their country? How about Nazis gassing Jews?

    Protest went well. Nobody from the embassy responded though. The Saudi rulers are thugs when at home but run and hide and use the Gardai to protect their embassy here. Barbarians.
