Shame

Timothy Morgan at Christianity Today informs us of what appears on the surface, at least, to be a shameful decision by Janet Napolitano's Department of Homeland Security. You might recall I wrote last March about a book by Mosab Yousef titled Son of Hamas. Yousef was the son of one of the founders of Hamas who grew disenchanted with the terrorism and brutality of the organization, worked for the Israeli spy agency Mossad, and eventually converted to Christianity. He then emigrated to the U.S. where he wrote a book about his experience. Now DHS is trying to deport him.

The Obama administration is reluctant to stem the flow of illegal aliens, many of them criminals, into this country, Obama's Kenyan aunt was even granted "political asylum" recently, but this young man, who is almost certain to be killed if he returns to his homeland, is being told he can't stay here.

What can possibly be the justification? If DHS thinks he's a sleeper terrorist or some sort of double agent then they should produce the evidence. Otherwise, how is justice served by sending him to his death?

Read the article at the link. Unless DHS knows something it's not telling us it'll make you ashamed of your government.
