Kyodo News – “The 20-km evacuation zone around the crisis-hit Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant will soon be turned into a legally binding off-limits zone, senior officials said Sunday.

The step is aimed at increasing government control over the area. Desperate residents have been braving radiation fears for quick return trips to pick up essential belongings. Officials suggested Sunday that they will now be able to force anyone out of the evacuation zone who refuses to leave.”  Read more.

Sweden Plans to Deport Former Imam Who Converted to Christianity

“If anyone changes his religion, kill him” (cf. Bukhari vol. 9, bk. 84, no. 57).  What is wrong with many Western countries?  Are they that ignorant of the fact that it is an automatic death sentence for anyone who converts from Islam to another religion?  We should all be doing everything in our power to save this man and others like him, not deporting him back to a country where genocide against Christians is taking place on a daily basis.

By James Heiser – “A former imam who converted to Christianity is facing extradition from Sweden to his native Iraq, where he may face imprisonment or death for his “apostasy” from Islam. According to an article at Dagen.se (translated by Google):

A former imam, who lives in Karlskoga and who converted to Christianity must be deported to Iraq, the Administrative Court of Appeal has decided.

Bengt Sjoberg, local politician from Filipstad and heavily involved in refugee issues, said that the former Imam [had] been baptized in the Baptist church in Karlskoga and openly share[d] [his] faith with others. ‘This is absolutely horrible. This is a genuine conversion and many of us can testify that there is a man who lives as a Christian.'” Read more.

“SENDAI, Japan — A strong new earthquake rattled Japan’s northeast Monday as the government urged more people living near a tsunami-crippled nuclear plant to leave, citing concerns about long-term health risks from radiation.

The magnitude 7.0 aftershock came just hours after people bowed their heads and wept in somber ceremonies to mark a month since a massive earthquake and tsunami that killed up to 25,000 people and set off a crisis of radiation leaks at the nuclear plant by knocking out its cooling systems…

Japanese officials said the quake was a 7.0 magnitude, but the U.S. Geological Survey said it measured magnitude 6.6.”  Read more.
