Why does the Prominent people in Saudi Arabia who has concubines are not subject by this punishment? Even the Saudi Princes here are having a lot of concubines. Maybe the religious authorities are just afraid of them. Therefore, where is that STRICT SHARIA LAW they implement here in Saudi ?!?!?!

After read this rape story one question is coming in my mind since i am reading some difference stories, I didn’t see any rich women or men who is involving such like case and get punishment? Always why always poor people are arresting it mean rich peoples are not doing anything wrong. Country law is always for poor, why rich peoples are not doing any thing wrong.

Of course it’s Saudi. This happens all the time there. Yet we are still their allies. I say we get a strong pres back in office break off relations with them, pull all the troops out of the mid east region and let them kill themselves. Cut off all of the outside information and entertainment to them all oil equipment and block shipping from the mid east countries. OMG 15 dollars a gallon gas. Big Bertha down in Alabama better lose weight so that little 50 cc scooter she will have to ride will move more than 3 MPh
or 8 Km/h/. I know I sound bad but here is an explanation of me. I don’t believe the US should be fighting a war there. If the people got together and asked thats one thing. I believe that global warming or not NO ONE in the USA needs a full size pickup unless its for worm. NO suburban housewives with a Chevy Suburban for hauling 2 kids. We should mind our own business in the world. millions died to free the world from Hitler. Would that happen today? NO! People today don’t know what it is to live a hard life. I was raised by my great grandparents and even knew my great great grandfather. i was told stories from the both of them about how life was NO air conditioners, no televisions litte or no radio. Both world wars watching your friends heads blown off. No we have a hi ten pregnancy rate. Out of control kids and PETA. I like animals but a fly? Give me a break.

[...] Raped Filipino Worker Faces Lashing after Miscarriage in Saudi Prison A Filipino woman who worked as a janitor in Saudi Arabia was raped in August of last year by a Bangladeshi co-worker and became pregnant as a result.

Last month the woman suffered a miscarriage in prison and she is now facing lashings before being deported back to the Philippines. [...]

Obviously Liz has never been to Japan! However, I have and I lived there for several years… never seen 20 people in a hut, but as for organized crime… it’s in every country and yes, even in every city… just to a smaller degree by greedier people.
I must say spankings as we Americans define them may not be a bad idea to have done in public… something needs to happen to perhaps impress upon today’s youth there is a consequence for your actions.

Who said anything about Japan? This lady is a Filipina.

And, yes, Saudis are insane. I am moving there this summer and the thought terrifies me.

@Liz

Japan?

Are you sure you’ve got your geography right? It’s one of the most advanced countries on the planet. More shocking news just in; , Japan isn’t actually a town, believe it or not, it’s a country.
