There is already one unstable muslim nuclear state, Pakistan. If Iran goes nuclear you could see Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Turkey, Jordan and Lybia follow. Now that will be dangerous.
Whats sick is the Saudi Arabi laws and the people who enforces that laws. Why is Aceday banned? I dont mind, but still.
Exactly dude, The best way to prevent rape? Lock the women behind closed doors..don't you agree? To me, that only suggests that women do not dare to report rapes in SA, and I wonder why? Try to respond when your ban is lifted...
No wonder if they get punished. I bet it is a great shame to be raped in SA and you will be accused of being places you "should not" be. And its not only SA that have that idiot laws.
Women have to wear a burqa if they appear in public in places like Saudi Arabia and Iran in order to protect themselves from savages. “The veil is to show that women are responsible for the sexual self-control of men.†— Ayaan Hirsi Ali Heh http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayaan_Hirsi_Ali
Yes ironically those stats can indicate the exact opposite of the real situation. The countries where women do not report rape will rank higher numbers, those like the U.S. and Canada where women can report it get a lower ranked number.
What I really find scary is Australia's ranking.. Number 3? Given that there are only about 20 million people on the same land mass as the US, that is a bit alarming.. One has to wonder if these statistics are including actual, rapes by conviction, or rapes by indictment, conviction, and the statutory rape, indictments and or convictions or a combination of all?
In an article found here "In Islam, an unmarried woman found guilty of having an affair can be sentenced to 100 lashes; for a married woman, the sentence is death by stoning. But first, four witnesses must say they saw the illicit act with their own eyes."
Plain and simple, we support governments who have a terrible track record of human rights, especially against women. If saudi arabia didnt have oil, do u think we would be kissing their butts like this? People that support any government or group blindly is a dangerous thing because those are the same people that will support our government when they declare marshall law. Why dont we start supporting democracy instead of money and power? Its simple, because the elite will lose their grip on their power base and the masses. I just hope that Ron Paul has the guts to stand up to this dangerous power base when and if he becomes president. Last person to do that was JFK, i think he failed didnt he(correct me if im wrong?)
The said thing is.. We discovered it for them, and taught them how to get it.. If not for the US, they would still be living in a desert.
Living in a desert, you have to be kidding me. You ovbiously have no idea what the arabs have contributed with science and the development of the modern world. If it wasn't for them, you would still be living in a house made of mud and hay.
So if there arent the four 'witnesses' she cant prove she has been raped ? no medical tests ? And which four people will just let the heinous act happen and do nothing to stop it ? Wait ... isnt there the rule that the four should also be muslims
Oh don't get you panties in a bunch.. Ultimately, it was Italians that were responsible for almost every advancement in the world today... Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
