Isn’t there some way Brian DePalma can blame this on US soldiers and marines?

Of course the lashing was raised, during the tussle the innocent men were provoked by seeing an ankle.

There is good news and bad news, Miss gang rape victim. We won our appeal! That’s the good news. The bad news is that the retrial upped your punishment to 200 lashes.

Put yourself in this woman’s position. She goes out for a drive with a man, gets gang raped and then is lashed for it 200 times. And she probably feels like she did something wrong by getting in a car with a man that is not her relative.

Muslims are pigs.

As despicable as this is, there is one thing we can do here “her attempt to aggravate and influence the judiciary through the media.” How refreshing is that?

The severity of this ruling is probably a warning shot from the hard liners to those elements in SA that would like to see things loosen up. One public figure recently stated that women should be allowed to drive. This may be a message to SA women to “stay in line”.

“A court in the ultra-conservative kingdom of Saudi Arabia...”

Saudi Arabia isn’t “conservative”. It is an Islamic theocracy.

Iranian TV Reports on MEMRI TV Clips on Wife Beating in Islam

Following are excerpts from an Iranian television program using clips from MEMRI TV, which aired on Channel 2 on Novemeber 5, 2007.

Reporter: A few days ago, a Saudi TV channel broadcast a program that caused an uproar throughout the world. Our show brings you this report.

Translator: How should one beat [one’s wife], in your view? The beatings should be light and should avoid the face. The man should beat his wife in places where it won’t leave marks. He should not beat her on the hand.

Reporter : Don’t be amazed. You are hearing correctly. This show gives instructions on the proper way to beat your wife. My curiosity to see how this show reverberated led me to search the Internet. When I typed the name of the Al-’Arifi guy, I encountered a whole host of items denouncing this show. They all said that wife-beating stems from the laws of Islam. In one item, it even said that in Islamic countries, like Egypt, Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Afghanistan, men beat their wifes and children once a day. In addition, I came across many clips of speeches on the rules of wife-beating, which served as a pretext for TV networks to present anti-Islamic propaganda. Such networks are more interested in psychological warfare than in presenting real news. This is true for Fox News, BBC, and all the other networks of the “cultural” NATO, or, in other words, all the Zionist, anti-Islamic networks. Even if we assume that the people who made the show about wife-beating were not acting on the orders of these media giants – judge for yourselves who profits from such shows, which lead to such extremist propaganda.

“But in a new verdict issued after Saudi Arabia’s Higher Judicial Council ordered a retrial, the court in the eastern town of Al-Qatif more than doubled the number of lashes to 200.”

90 lashes probably would have killed her, but 200? Shes pretty much dead already. If it doesn’t kill her she will be scarred and crippled for life. Islam is an insane ideology.

The Saudi’s spread of Wahhabism is at the root of most of Islamic extremism that exists today.

Seems like drugs are more of a problem then rape.

Moving the lashes from 90 to 200 because she complained of being a victim should show her who’s boss.

NOTICE: The floggings will continue until women’s attitudes improve and conform to authority.

“being in the car of an unrelated male...”

What about being in a house with a bunch of guys and pulling your clothes off (stripper) a la Duke Lacrosse party?

The sooner their oil runs out, the better.

We'll adjust.

200 real lashes is a death sentence for practically anyone. I can’t believe they would do this to a 19yo girl.

And the rapists only got jail time. The ROP lives up to its name.

Hell no, there are no good guys over there. We need to replace oil with something, anything we can get from the western world (preferably within our own borders)...
