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.

The psychoanalyst in me is very sure that these men’s newfound interest in bra inspections and mandatory breast-shaking is not actually motivated by religious convictions.
Do they have a ‘bra Tzar’?
Not really. The Islamists and their dirty minds just want to get a very close look at breasts. What is better than having the women show them off and shake them under the pretext of making sure they are following some medieval law?
Quite a con they have going there.
A culture that doesn’t approve of round, firm, fully-packed “girls”, so to speak, is not a culture of which I want to be a part.
Women must be covered, lest men lust after them - then the same men demand the women “shake their breasts” ...
calling all Femi-nazis, please stand up for women’s rights not to be a sex object, calling all Feminazis ...
I’ve been wondering why I haven’t seen you on here, but now I suspect you have run off and joined the Tali Ban.
Just kidding. But these Tali Ban, inspecting these, then making them shake them, ain’t fooling me one bit.
Now seriously, I think as a covert operation we should arm these women and send them in to take out the Taliban.

Sounds like the ol' Clinton White House to me.....
>>I cant help thinking they are enjoying the inspection process.
They probably feel shame for it...and at the end of long day of checking breast firmness, they go back to the barracks and rape some boy to transfer their shame.

That’s right, especially when they bring along their own
pole.
Just any old excuse to sneak a peek or cop a feel, huh??? Disgusting.
The Religion of Perversion
Going to a lot of trouble just to cop a feel.
LOL..
I know this is sad and serious, but it writes its own jokes.
Someone ought to put a burka on Dolly Parton or Pam Anderson and send them over there just to “question authority.”
Send Pam Anderson to me, I could inspect her with my
eyes closed.
Where is NOW in protesting this outrage??
well, well——chirping crickets.
I have no doubt that some savages might act this way. However, when I read the article at your source, something just doesn’t sound right. Is this the UK’s version of our National Enquirer??
Okay, you will all appreciate this thread.
Except for the fact that they are working on conquering us from inside and out so they can treat women here that way, force us to worship their god and (worst of all) outlaw the "miracle animal" from our breakfast plates, dinner plates, grills and barbeque smokers.
< /slight sarcasm on the "worst of all">

Everyone should watch this;
