It is precisely stories like Lara’s which bring to light just how brutal so many cultures in our world remain!
On another note: It affirms for me why President Trump’s decree promoting the decriminalization of homosexuality in Islamic countries and elsewhere is a righteous move. No woman, no man, regardless of sexual orientation, dressing with or without a burka, or even cross dressing should ever be subject to this kind of torture, mass rape, or savage execution as a regular occurrence!

Many in our government push for the decriminalization of abortion worldwide as well; it is an extension of the same thinking. These people have customs and traditions which, however barbaric to us, are for them to decide. We’ve lost the moral high ground in terms of dictating morality to others.
