A 13-year-old girl has been sentenced to 90 lashes and two months' prison in Saudi Arabia after she took a mobile phone to school.

A court ordered the girl to be flogged in front of her classmates following an assault on the school principal, according to the Saudi daily newspaper Al-Watan.

After the assault she was discovered to have concealed a mobile phone, breaking strict Saudi regulations banning the use of camera-equipped phones in girls' schools.

I don’t know what’s more surprising.....the fact she was flogged for this or the fact she’s allowed to get an education.

Y9u know I have no problem with the Muslims having Sharia law in their own countries. I do not want it in America.

Its none of my business what the customary laws are in Saudi. And if anyone who lives in Saudi doesn’t like Sharia law, they can leave, or revolt and change it.

I do not have any sympathy or bleeding heart over the criminal law imposed in another nation.

I agree with you.
Frankly it is none of our business what they do in other countries.
We should spend more time worrying about what the hell is happening to our country.

90 lashes will kill her. It is a death sentence by torture.

No, these are our masters.

Perhaps stating it a little differently, they are Obama's masters, may be more accurate.

This is a death sentence. Ninety lashes will kill that little girl.

I have a mind to write Saudi Arabia and tell them that their actions are a thousand times more immoral than the crime committed. Anyone who could justify whacking a little 13 year old girl 90 times for a cell phone incident, has lost all concept of reality.

If these Saudis think they are doing good, I have some swamp land in Florida they can buy.

If you recall, a few years back about a dozen Saudi girls died in a burning school as the religious police blocked their exit because they had no head coverings.

But they do. It's their religion, you know, and they believe in it, and they support it and try to export it with their petrodollars.

That enterprise mislabeled the War on Terror is really the War on Sharia.
