This shows you know nothing about Islam. Perhaps it's time for you to do some study? Are you totally unaware of Islamic law, and how it applies to women? This case is typical. I suggest you start educating yourself on Islam.

It's not clear if he was intended for release or actually released ( conflicting stories) and the royal family intervened due to public outrage and demand he be put to death. It's not clear if he remains in prison, or not.

The US has a 50 year relationship with SA and overlooks human rights issues. We supply them and other ME countries with military equipment and support ( to protect them from Israel) and they trade oil in USD.
Islamic women who have been raped may be stoned to death. If they are even thought to have been unfaithful (without any proof), they may be stoned to death. If they are thought not to be virgin they may be stoned to death.

Oh, but, I was told that that is "painting with a broad brush."

People are so ignorant about Islam. They are willing to accept them here, yet are clueless as to what Muslims believe.

Better wise up, America, before it's to late (and the hour is already late).

No, I don't defend the murder of babies. I do support a woman's right to choose, however. And I have never made the claim the Islam is a religion of peace, any more than I ever claimed that Christianity is a religion of peace. There are peaceful people in every religion, and there are monsters in every religion. I don't declare myself to be better than the whole of an entire culture for the acts of a small segment of that culture. You do that. Think on that.

There are "monsters" in all walks of life.

Well, at least he didn`t refuse to bake a wedding cake for a same-sex marriage ceremony like the American Taliban does!

Why do people keep saying this all the time? Where did this even come from? Do you people just make this stuff up for talking points? I am as leftist as any liberal here, and I find that man's actions reprehensible and worthy of death, and I certainly won't hesitate to judge him and his culture, either.
