About three weeks ago, another Egyptian court sentenced seven people to death after convicting them in absentia on blasphemy charges. Most of the seven are in the United States. Most of them are Coptic Christians; one is a Florida-based pastor who is a blistering critic of Islamic scripture. The charges relate to the defendants’ alleged involvement in “Innocence of Muslims,” an obscure amateur video that Islamists have frivolously cited as a pretext for their latest round of international mayhem — and that the Obama administration has fraudulently portrayed as the catalyst of a massacre in Benghazi in which jihadists killed four Americans, including our ambassador to Libya.This just in: Barack Hussein Obama is not, I repeat not, a Muslim. He is, however, a big fat dhimmi.
So how has President Obama responded to the Egyptian government’s human-rights violations, its failure to protect the Copts from persecution (indeed, its willing participation in that persecution), and its provocations against Americans — which now include ordering their killing, through a kangaroo-court process that flouts our due-process standards, over their engagement in activity that is expressly protected by our Constitution?
Well . . . the president has announced that not only will he continue funding Egypt’s Islamist government, but he intends to include in that U.S. aid the provision of 20 F-16 fighter jets. Moreover, Obama is continuing his administration’s collaboration with the 57-government Organization of Islamic Cooperation on the “Istanbul Process.” That is the OIC’s campaign to impose sharia’s repressive blasphemy standards.

"Sharia Is Here"
That chilling pronouncement comes courtesy Andrew McCarthy. He's speaking about Obama's laissez-faire approach to the issue of blasphemy, one of Islam's biggest no-nos:
Come now, Scaramouche. President Obama is sending those 20 F-16s to Egypt to ensure that, when Egypt and Israel next go to war, the Israelis can't be accused of using "disproportionate" force against their enemies. And you thought Obama was hostile to Israeli interests!
