Why do leftists support the Islamic radicals?

THE PLIGHT OF GAY MUSLIMS: It's grim, of course. Radical Islamism hates only Jews more than homosexuals. And the mullahs best even John Derbyshire in their bigotry:

Dr Muzammil Siddiqi, director of the Islamic Society of North America, says "homosexuality is a moral disease, a sin, a corruption… No person is born homosexual, just as nobody is born a thief, a liar or a murderer. People acquire these evil habits due to a lack of proper guidance and education." Sheikh Sharkhawy, a cleric at the prestigious London Central Mosque in Regent’s Park, compares homosexuality to a "cancer tumour." He argues "we must burn all gays to prevent paedophilia and the spread of AIDS," and says gay people "have no hope of a spiritual life." The Muslim Educational Trust hands out educational material to Muslim teachers – intended for children! – advocating the death penalty for gay people, and advising Muslim pupils to stay away from gay classmates and teachers.

What staggers me is how silent the gay establishment is about these obscenities. If a religious right figure had said them, there would be hell to pay. But the multi-culti left still has a stranglehold on official gay discourse and won't condemn Islamist bigotry. Why not? These mullahs are fanning the flames of anti-gay violence with literally incendiary rhetoric. Burn gays? Yep, that's what the cleric said.

Wow, bet Shaddiqi and Sharkhawy would have a good old rumble if they got this discussion going with some Arab Muslim Sheiks.

Male homosexuality is widely practiced and accepted in the Arab countries - young boys and men are forced into it by older men. Later, they become the forcers. It's no shame to be raped as a boy... only when you're of age and able to defend yourself against aggression is it considered a shame or a sin.

Bestiality is likewise common - to the point that there are specific rules for it included in the Qu'ran. They teach, for instance, that if you "lie with" your sheep or cow, the meat is then unclean and cannot be sold to anyone in your own village, but must be sold instead to the next village.

Odd how homosexuality is viewed as if it's some big shocking terrible thing by the Muslim leaders in the US and Canada and Britain. It certainly is no big deal in the birthplace of Islam.
