Indonesia: Hundreds cheer as unmarried pair are flogged for being 'too close'
International Times ^ | December 30, 2015 | Romil Patel

Hundreds of people gathered to cheer as a woman was publicly caned in Indonesia for having affectionate contact with a man who was not her husband. University student Nur Elita was rushed to hospital after receiving five lashes in front of a jubilant crowd.

The 20-year-old was forced to kneel as a masked man whipped her repeatedly outside the Baiturrahim Mosque in Aceh, Indonesia's only province to enact Sharia law. Her companion, 23-year-old Wahyudi Saputra was also caned. Under Sharia law, unmarried men and women are not allowed to get too close to each other due to the "khalwat" offence.

Elita could be seen doubling over in agony as she was brutally whipped. After the punishment was meted out, she was carried from the stage to an ambulance and transported to hospital to receive treatment.

Good thing she wasn't raped ... cause in that case under Sharia Law, they would have had to kill her

This was already posted the other day. If people here will not turn back to God and start going to services to learn and live what the Bible says, then they deserve islamic law. It might be what it takes to cause people to cry out for the real God.

The left has really thrown women under the bus with its support of Islam; women’s lib and Islam are mutually exclusive. I’ve known/worked with three “Christian” women married to Muslim men, and they were simply punching bags for them.

...Stand with Ted (Cruz) in defense of religious liberty

Someone needs to tell this idiot when he preaches "religious liberty" he can't pick and choose which religion...Then again knowing his record of using Tom Foolery maybe he knows.

Please tell me what was the fun stuff of the Middle Ages. Going out for a steak back then meant going out for a burning at the steak.

Obama may have seen this sort of thing first-hand when he was a kid there in Indonesia. He undoubtedly knew of it. Now he wants it for us. What an intellectual swine!

The May Pole seemed fun. Dancing. Music. All of which would are incompatible with Sharia Law.
