More sharia in the Maldives

It's coming, a steady creep of more and more restrictions based in sharia.  This time it's alcohol and pork, would you care to guess the next items on the "do not play with" list?

The Maldives are a beautiful chain of islands, inexorably sinking under the coming weight of Islam as practiced by Muhammad.

Maldives 'considering' complete ban of alcohol and pork

The government yesterday revealed its plan to completely ban alcohol and pork in the Maldives following the demands made by religious protestors on Friday.

The President's Press Secretary Mohamed Zuhair told journalists that the government is considering imposing a nationwide ban on alcohol and pork in response to the demands made by religious protestors on Friday.

"As you are aware of, more than 400 locals are living in some large resorts whereas the population of an island consists of only 200-300. Therefore, the government is looking into ways to completely ban the sale of alcohol and pork throughout the Maldives," he said.

Five demands were put forward at the protest organised by the civil society coalition and opposition parties on Friday.

The demands include removing the SAARC monuments in Addu, condemning UN human rights chief Navi Pillay's comments about Islamic Sharia, not allowing Israeli airlines to operate flights, closing down the brothels in Male and a reversed decision on declaring areas of inhabited islands uninhabited in order to permit alcohol sales.

But Islam really is a tolerant and progressive religion, honestly!
