Muslims give 75 year-old Woman Lashes

[barbaro]

When you think you have seen it all, they come out with more of this. Is the Quran the direct word of god? Apparently, in Islam, if you breast feed a child and it's a boy, it's your son? WTF?

(CNN) -- A Saudi Arabian court has sentenced a 75-year-old Syrian woman to 40 lashes, four months imprisonment and deportation from the kingdom for having two unrelated men in her house, according to local media reports.


According to the Saudi daily newspaper Al-Watan, troubles for the woman, Khamisa Mohammed Sawadi, began last year when a member of the religious police entered her house in the city of Al-Chamli and found her with two unrelated men, "Fahd" and "Hadian."

Fahd told the policeman that he had the right to be there, because Sawadi had breast-fed him as a baby and was therefore considered to be a son to her in Islam, according to Al-Watan. Fahd, 24, added that his friend Hadian was escorting him as he delivered bread for the elderly woman. The policeman then arrested both men.


Saudi Arabia follows a strict interpretation of Islam called Wahhabism and punishes unrelated men and women who are caught mingling.


The Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, feared by many Saudis, is made up of several thousand religious policemen charged with duties such as enforcing dress codes, prayer times and segregation of the sexes. Under Saudi law, women face many restrictions, including a strict dress code and a ban on driving. Women also need to have a man's permission to travel.


Al Watan obtained the court's verdict and reported that it was partly based on the testimony of the religious police. In his ruling, the judge said it had been proved that Fahd is not the Sawadi's son through breastfeeding.


The court also doled out punishment to the two men. Fahd was sentenced to four months in prison and 40 lashes; Hadian was sentenced to six months in prison and 60 lashes. In a phone call with Al Watan, the judge declined to comment and suggested the newspaper review the case with the Ministry of Justice.
Sawadi told the newspaper that she will appeal, adding that Fahd is indeed her son through breastfeeding.


The case has sparked anger in Saudi Arabia.
"It's made everybody angry because this is like a grandmother," Saudi women's rights activist Wajeha Al-Huwaider told CNN. "Forty lashes -- how can she handle that pain? You cannot justify it."


This is not the first Saudi court case to cause controversy.

Unfuckinbelievable.

[DrivingForce]

Unfuckinbelievable.

If only it were.....

[Escapeeeeeee]

Seems reasonable to me. Perhaps they would have less time to be moronic to the rest of the world if they just preoccupied themselves by lashing each other for spurious reasons?

Praise Allah.

Ah, the double standards of the 'Religion of Peace'... When in Cebu last week the bars were laden with drunken Iranians molesting every woman within reach... I would enjoy witnessing the administration of justice to this lot...

75-year-old Syrian woman to 40 lashes, four months imprisonment and deportation from the kingdom, Fahd was sentenced to four months in prison and 40 lashes; Hadian was sentenced to six months in prison and 60 lashes.

Just for delivering bread to the old womans house.

as he delivered bread for the elderly woman.

Fucking retarded isn't it.

It OK. The Saudis are our allies in the Middle East.
Well, till their oil runs out anyway.

[DrivingForce]

It's precisely BECAUSE they're our allies that recently these type of sentences have been rescinded or commuted by the Government over the holy judiciary. Without it, it would be a far more common practice as there would be no back lash for such primeval practices.. You don't change thousands of years of ignorance over night nor do you isolate or abandon those who do such things, instead you engage them for change just as if you were trying to influence any local here for change of certain archaic cultural beliefs or practices, you lead by example and influence which you don't have looking in from outside..

Mormons have their roots with the Lost Tribe of Israel.

If we have to talk about conspiricies, religion is the biggest of all.

Ban all forms of religion, and class those who are religious terrorist. That should be the world policy, not the US's indoctrination.

Or alternatively, you could invade them and occupy the country to bring about regime change, freedom and democracy.

They claim to.

And they make many other "claims."

That's precisely why it has to be done diplomatically behind closed doors out of the public eye through an allied approach..

Thats better than blowing old ladies and little kids away with military rifles for no particular reason, --- like the Israeli army did in Gaza.

Some Israeli soldiers apparently have a conscience and have been blabbing about the war crimes committed recently in Gaza.

"One non-commissioned officer related at the seminar that an old woman crossing a main road was shot by soldiers."

"One account tells of a sniper killing a mother and children at close range whom troops had told to leave their home."
