Our allies (members of the Religion of Peace) take a page from Howard Dean and seek to prevent their fledgling democracy from being controlled by a party of non-white Christians.
Saudi Arabian officials, after denying allegations that the Kingdom arrests and tortures religious believers, released five Christians arrested in connection to a house church while three remain in custody.
The men released Wednesday, all citizens of India, are Nediyakalayil Daniel Samuel, Koilpillai Vijayakumar, Moothenpackal Mathai Thomas, George Mathew and Biju Thomas, according to International Christian Concern, a Washington, D.C.-based monitor of persecution.
Still in custody are Chittirickal John Thomas, Saji Varghese, Pallivadakkethil James George and Samkutty Varghese.
All of the men, except for Samkutty Varghese, were arrested in a raid May 28 in Riyadh by the Muttawa, or religious police.
The raid is believed to be the result of Samkutty Varghese's detention Jan. 24, when authorities found in his possession names and numbers of people in his Assembly of God group.
Thanks to World Net Daily for the heads up.
