Somalia: Teenage 'elopers' publicly flogged in central province

Mogadishu, 23 Nov (AKI) - Islamist militiamen on Tuesday in central Somalia publicly flogged two teenagers who tried to elope together, Radio Shabelle reported. Tribal elders sentenced the teenagers to 12 lashes each. The pair, whose ages were not stated, had tried to marry secretly without their parents' consent, Radio Shabelle said.

The youngsters were flogged on their backs in the central square in the village of Jalalaqsi in Hiran province, according to Radio Shabelle.

In October, Islamist militants shot dead two adolescents accused of spying for the transitional government in Mogadishu, the radio station said.

The Al-Qaeda affiliated Islamist Al-Shabab controls much of southern Somalia. Al-Shabab appears to have consolidated its position as the most powerful insurgent group by driving its main rival, Hizbul Islam, out of the southern port city of Kismayo in October 2009.

Since then they have openly declared their alliance with Al-Qaeda and have been steadily moving their forces northwards towards Mogadishu, the Somali capital.

Somalia has been without an effective central government since 1991.

It is long past time to turn the Islamic paradise of Somalia into a collection of smoldering, radioactive craters.

You want to take military action against Somalia because they abuse their own people.

No, because they are allied with Al Queda.

Besides, they’re long overdue for evaporation for what they did to the Blackhawk crew, in 1997, was it?

Mohammedanism is a scourge on the earth. It needs to be eradicated, and the reasons for vaporizing Mohammedan enclaves can be trivial.

Nobody has the gumption to do what’s required to put a stop to the Mohammedan menace, anyway, so I’m just blowing off steam.

I've got the gumption, I just lack the vaporization mechanisms. Of course, Christmas is coming up...

Genocide always makes the world a better place.

The appropriate response to a gang that abuses its own people is to kill all the people they’re abusing. Takes “shoot the hostage” to a whole new level.

I'm talking politicide, not genocide. Get your terms straight. I am for the complete extermination of all fascists, especially those who squat toward Mecca.

There are no innocent Muslims. Only infidel-killers-in-training.

Additionally, temporary collateral damage is an acceptable price for permanent victory over Islamic slavery.

Perhaps you think that the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were genocide, too.

> that abuses its own people is to kill all the people they’re abusing.

No, they are allied with al Queda and committed to our destruction. That includes you, unless, of course, you are the proper type of Mohammedan. Even then, they are happy to allow other Mohammedans to die as long as they can kill infidels in the process.

They have attacked American forces, dragging the burnt and disfigured bodies through the streets and celebrating.

If they had nuclear weapons, they would use them on us in a heartbeat. All they would need is a few functional devices mounted on primitive SCUD-type missiles and launched from barges or freighters from about 30 miles offshore. It is not a matter of whether the Mohammedans will do this, but when.

Mohammedanism must be destroyed. It must be wiped from the face of the earth. It is self-defense, and it doesn’t matter how many of them must be killed in the process of destroying the ideology.

Of course, neither you nor the genocidal Mohammedan savages have anything to worry about, since nobody is willing to do what must be done.

Well said.

Thank you.

Nope. Nukes do not distinguish between the political beliefs of those within their blast radius.

You claim you want to kill all Somalis, or possibly all Muslims. That is genocide by definition. Dress it up however you like.

Right. Nits make lice, and all that. Somewhere I've heard similar language about the need, in self-defense of course, to wipe out an entire people. But I've made a solemn vow not to violate Godwin's Law, so I'll leave you to figure out the correspondence.

Nope, these unfortunate but necessary actions were taken to force the surrender of the Japanese. Our goal was never to kill all the Japanese, the equivalent of what you're promoting. Although it was well within our capabilities to do so by the end of the war, I'm not aware of anybody seriously proposing it.

But you are happy and proud of yourself for proposing the Final Solution to the Muslim Problem.

You're welcome to defend, protect, and harbor Muslims with all your self-righteous and delusional strength.

I, however, will resist the impulse to say "I told you so" when you wake up to them slitting the throats of your family.

Gullibility is a fatal disease.

Don't succumb.

Thank you for the amateur psychoanalysis and attempted character assassination.

I suggested no such thing, except in your overactive imagination.

Nuking hotbeds of al Queda activism is probably more militarily significant than nuking a small, almost insignificant, mostly residential but slightly industrial city with a large Catholic population, like Nagasaki.

The most effective nuclear strike would be Mecca, as Mohammed promised that it would never be destroyed. Wiping that one city from the face of the Earth would expose the pedophile pirate, slave trader, jew hater, genocidal savage for the false prophet and liar that he is, as well as to obliterate the highest relic in Mohammedan worship.

You have violated your oath by comparing my response to Hitler’s “Final Solution”.

So much for the integrity of your oath.
