taqiya and kitman in action in the maldives

oct 29th, 2010

the whole gang is in on this charade -- nobody misses a beat. therefore they must have done this many times before, it seems well practiced.

this is a metaphor for what the pakistanis are doing to the americans. 

a lot of maldivians hang around trivandrum allegedly for medical purposes. i have always thought them to be particularly strange and off-putting. so close to india, but so far off in culture. they look vaguely indian, but you can tell them by their clothes.

The Maldives express 'shock and disgust' over a video of a couple
being mocked and insulted by a celebrant during a ceremony at a luxury
hotel.

Police in the Maldives have arrested a marriage celebrant who abused a
foreign couple as "swine" and "infidels" during a luxury ceremony in
the holiday paradise, an official said today.

Maldivian police spokesman Ahmed Shiyam said the celebrant, who
conducted the ceremony in the local language at an upmarket resort
fringed by white sand and turquoise water, had been arrested with
another hotel employee on Thursday.

A video of the ceremony, during which the hapless couple are taunted
and subjected to a series of insulting and religious-tinged abuse, was
posted on YouTube and has sparked fears for the country's
tourism-dependent economy.
