The only thing notable about this story is that it’s being reported.
And the only reason it’s being reported is because Ms. Azad is an actress in one of the most popular franchises in movie history.
The facts are simple as they are horrific. Afshan Azad has been secretly dating a non-Muslim. Her father and brother found out, branded her a “slag,” beat her, and threatened to murder her. She made her escape by climbing out of her bedroom window.
Actress Afshan Azad plays Padma Patil in the “Harry Potter” films.
The unfortunate youg woman is now in hiding. She refuses to press charges because she knows that the British police are incapable of protecting her and so for now, she has disappeared herself. But for how long can a well known actress remain in hiding?
All over the Muslim world, every day, every hour, every minute, women are raped, beaten, tortured and murdered all in the name of Islam.
The abuses against women that are part and parcel of the Islamist world are, of course, ignored by the self-righteous guardians of human rights and so-called feminists.
The international left has become a perfect reflection of an Orwellian world where war is peace, hate is love, and good is evil. In fact, the dystopian Ministry of Truth has been institutionalized in that august body of the UN and the various so-called human rights groups that are nothing more than rubber stamps for Jew-hating regimes. The thoughtcrimes of which Orwell warned are now embodied by the leftist narrative. For what is “Islamophobia” but a fantasy invented by Islamists as a way of short-circuiting the means by which the west can articulate and defend itself against the juggernaut of transnational jihad.
The two minutes of hate that were reserved for Emmanuel Goldstein in 1984–it’s no accident that Orwell chose a Jew as the symbolic enemy of the collectivist state–has morphed into a 24/7 blood libel against Israel and Judaism.
It’s the fashion to attack the Jewish State as an abuser of human rights when in truth Israel is a model of decency and democracy surrounded by Muslim totalitarian states whose social and religious policies are the most oppressive and cruel on the face of the earth.
It’s important to understand that the Islamist world and its leftist enablers–groups such as CAIR are fronts for the terrorist Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas–always couch their arguments in the rhetoric of human rights. But we must vigorously push back and unmask the lies, cruelty and bigotry that are the bedrock of the Islamist movement.
What’s happening to Ms. Azad is the norm in the Muslim world. To deny this fact is a crime against women and a crime against humanity.
