Congratulations on the feature Sleepwalking

Into Sharia [by Andrew M Potts]. The Sharia law in Mauritania, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Qatar, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, parts of Somalia and Northern Nigeria can all have the death penalty handed down for various forms of homosexuality depending on the country. As a member of Amnesty International for many years, we are involved with working on homophobia, violence, arbitrary arrest, torture and imprisonment of LGBTIQ people. We, who are lucky to have our freedom and human rights, I urge to lobby and protest for those who are forced to live under regimes that legalise homophobia.
