At least these Muslim nations stand by their morals and values and not let this abominable and sinful lifestyle be celebrated or promoted in their country. I wish Christian nations would take note
I wonder what the LGBT+ pro-Palestinian protesters think now?

They do not stand by their morals. Sodomy is rampant in Muslim nations, but it is hushed up. Homosexuality is legal in Turkey. So there are contradictory elements going on.

US troops in Afghanistan, for example, are told to ignore adult men raping young boys, because that is just their culture.

In Afghanistan, especially Pashtun areas, the tradition of Bacha Bazi, which is Persian for “boy play,” is very common. It involves the use of boys for sexual pleasure by men and is very common, especially among men of power. Ironically, one reason why the Taliban was disliked by many of its enemies was because it tried to stamp out the practice.

Thus, Islamic attitudes and responses to homosexual acts vary greatly in practice and application, though there is not much variation among the legal schools of Sharia.

Some countries, such as Turkey, simply ignore the Sharia as they are secular.

Others, like Afghanistan, quite often apply their own laws selectively, leading to the tragic situation where while consensual homosexual relations are punishable by death, while exploitative relationships with boys are simply winked at.

This is an amazing story, a British law maker sentenced to 20 years in Finland for passing a church pamphlet on Biblical see when gay sex wasn’t even legal.


A quote from your article...

"Despite that, the U.K. rejected her Electronic Travel Authorization "merely to pass through the country via Heathrow … ."

Räsänen, in fact, confirmed that action could imperil her plans to attend an upcoming conference and speaking engagement in Northern Ireland next month about — ironically — freedom of speech, the report said."

Also patriotic UK citizens had a massive rally in London this past May 16th. Several of the speakers were declined entry into the UK. One speaker from Poland is a member of the European Parliament and the UK even declined him! (Btw, these patriots aren't far right as portrayed by the government...they are patriotic citizens who are deeply concerned about their country.)

The Polish member of Parliament speaks on this video.
