Rules of dhimmitude

The vanquished non-Muslims peoples are granted security for their life and possessions, as well as a relative self-autonomous administration and limited religious rights according to the modalities of the conquest. These rights are subject to two conditions: the payment of a poll tax (the jizya) and submission to the provisions of Islamic law. - Bat Ye'or

A Kingston, Ontario couple with a newborn has been billed the full $750 for their private maternity room even after having been ordered off the ward in Kingston General Hospital's maternity ward because a Muslim woman was breastfeeding her baby.

Not that the bill is the problem. The bill is just adding injury to insist.

Note to Canadian readers: Discussing this story is racist and subject to action under Section 13.1 of Canada's Thought Crime Act.

John Kennedy said he and another man were also forbidden from using the sink in the shared bathroom to dampen cloths so they could clean their babies.

He and his wife and the other couple were moved out of the room on religious grounds that were made clear to him by medical staff on the floor, who said unrelated men are forbidden from being in the room while the Muslim woman was breastfeeding.

Kennedy's wife had an emergency C-section on Nov. 15 and was barely able to move, let alone care for their newborn, as a result of the surgery.

We. Have. Already. Surrendered.
