Somali Adulterer Stoned To Death
Islamists in southern Somalia have stoned a man to death for adultery but spared his pregnant girlfriend until she gives birth. Abas Hussein Abdirahman, 33, was killed in front of a crowd of some 300 people in the port town of Merka.
An official from the al-Shabab group said the woman would be killed after she has had her baby. Islamist groups run much of southern Somalia, while the UN-backed government only control parts of the capital. This is the third time Islamists have stoned a person to death for adultery in the past year.
Al-Shabab official Sheikh Suldan Aala Mohamed said Mr Abdirahman had confessed to adultery before an Islamic court. They [al-Shabab] are forcing women to wear very heavy clothes, saying they want them to properly cover their bodies but we know they have economic interests behind - they sell these kinds of clothes and want to force people to buy them
"He was screaming and blood was pouring from his head during the stoning. After seven minutes he stopped moving," an eyewitness told the BBC.

In the name of who? Peace be upon him.
dear Lord, after reading biblical accounts of stoning I always imagined it as one of the worst deaths. These people are so sick and I am so tired of reading what they inflict upon others.
Who needs a time machine when you can just go to these places?
Aww, well wasn't that thoughtful of them. Once she does give birth, the baby is an orphan.
That's the difference!
Gee, they have more respect for unborn babies then some we do. However it is a new recruit.
Maybe our do-gooders will want to bring even more here now.
Islam: Imagine a clown car.....with guns.
In our society, if you’re a babe and live in a Blue State, you simply pack up your stuff after the hubby goes to work, move out, get a lawyer, get a boyfriend, and leach off the (now ex) hubbie for the next few decades.
Non-violent: yes, morally ok: you decide.
Those silly Quakers...
And mohammedism does not permit adoption. Perhaps foster parents, but not adoption.

I tried to warn people, for years- finally got tired of yelling in an empty theatre...
