Whipped for wearing a 'deceptive' bra: Hardline Islamists in Somalia publicly flog women
Daily Mail UK ^ | 16 October 2009

Posted on 10/17/2009 1:25:37 PM PDT by Lorianne

A hardline Islamist group in Somalia has begun publicly whipping women for wearing bras that they claim violate Islam as they are 'deceptive'.

The insurgent group Al Shabaab has sent gunmen into the streets of Mogadishu to round up any women who appear to have a firm bust, residents claimed yesterday.

The women are then inspected to see if the firmness is natural, or if it is the result of wearing a bra. If they are found wearing , they are ordered to remove it and shake their breasts, residents said.

Al Shabaab, which seeks to impose a strict interpretation of Sharia law over all Somalia, also amputated a foot and a hand each from two young men accused of robbery earlier this month.

They have also banned movies, musical ringtones, dancing at wedding ceremonies and playing or watching soccer. 'Al Shabaab forced us to wear their type of full veil and now they order us to shake our breasts,' a resident, Halima, told Reuters, adding that her daughters had been whipped on Thursday. 'They are now saying that breasts should be firm naturally, or just flat.' Officials of Al Shabaab, which Washington says is Al Qaeda's proxy in the failed Horn of Africa state, declined to comment.

The group's hardline interpretation of Islamic law has shocked many Somalis, who are traditionally moderate Muslims. Some residents, however, give the insurgents credit for restoring order to the regions under their control.

Yes, I draw the line at planning to kill us.

That’s why we have hydrogen bombs.

I was referring to their heathen practices OTHER than planning to kill us.

Forcing people to submit to their rule is enough for me.
Communists tried to kill me in Nam, now these islamists
KILLED Americans in our own country, that’s enough by itself.

Ya know, I’ve come to the conclusion that
“Live free or die” doesn’t mean freedom or death,
it means leave us alone or YOU will die.
I will not go gently into that Islamist night...

....and I can't help but think you are right!

Try this:

Great news for girl watchers: Ogling over women's breasts is good for a man's health and can add years to his life, medical experts have discovered. According to the New England Journal of Medicine, "Just 10 minutes of staring at the charms of a female is roughly equivalent to a 30-minute aerobics work- out" declared gerontologist Dr. Karen Weatherby.

Dr. Weatherby and fellow researchers at three hospitals in Frankfurt, Germany, reached the startling conclusion after comparing the health of 200 male outpatients - half of whom were instructed to look at busty females daily, the other half told to refrain from doing so. The study revealed that after five years, the chest-watchers had lower blood pressure, slower resting pulse rates and fewer instances of coronary artery disease. "Sexual excitement gets the heart pumping and improves blood circulation," explains Dr. Weatherby.

"There's no question: Gazing at breasts makes men healthier."

"Our study indicates that engaging in this activity a few minutes daily cuts the risk of stroke and heart attack in half. We believe that by doing so consistently, the average man can extend his life four or five years.".............

Makes sense to me.......

There are a bunch of muslim students at Rutgers University, the females of which often hold public discussions in which they poo-poo America’s fear of Islam and the “erroneous idea” that Islam means Women’s Slavery.

Well, the fact is, Islam means: Slavery of Women.

I think we are missing a real military opportunity here. Let’s see if we can make them all blind by sending Helen Thomas over there with an ultra-lift bra stuffed with grapefruit.

When they make her strip down and shake those withered up thingies on her chest, they will instantly go blind and “poof,” we have conquered them.

what's that old saying if you don't want my peaches then don't shake my tree? Seem like these perverts like to see swing peaches.

Yup. And they've had a few noses turned up at them....hard on your self image.

The story on one of the most important characters in the Muslim Brotherhood, a little man by the name of Qutb (same here, I have no idea how to pronounce it), is that he came to the U.S. in the 1950's to study at the University of Colorado.

Supposedly he was "offended" by women in their one piece swim suits at CU (remember, this is the '50s).

The reality is that they ignored him, or worse, laughed at him.

So he goes home to become a crazed Jihadist, bent on someday controlling all the Evil Females and their decadent boyfriends in the West.

They didn't call him Tiny for nothin'....
