Eye for An Eye Style Justice ...
While human rights organizations are up in arms about perceived US abuses of prisoners at Gitmo ... and while US Democrats make political hay out of it ... nobody seems to give a flying fig about Wahhabi "justice".
From the Saudi Gazette: EVEN as human rights organizations are fighting to overturn an eye-for-an-eye verdict given against an Indian worker in Dammam, a court in Taif has ordered a Saudi national to be blinded for the loss of vision of a compatriot.
Hamad Muqbil Aal Saad Al-Qahtani has been waiting behind bars since September 2004 for a miracle to happen and save his left eye, reported Okaz newspaper.
Yup, you read it right. Click to the article for a full explanation.
Also, where's the international outcry for Indonesian maids in Saudi. From LostBudgie Blog, sourced to ArabNews: Meet Nour Miyati - an Indonesian woman working as a maid in Saudi Arabia, who has just had fingers, toes and parts of her foot amputated due to gangrene.
Miss Miyati's hands and feet developed gangrene because her Saudi employer (slave master) tied her up for a month as punishment for not cleaning the house as well as expected.
Now, Miss Miyati has been sentenced by a Saudi Islamic Court to 79 Lashes for "falsely accusing" her slave master of mistreating her.
Now, while you're trying to get your mind around Islamofascist "justice," here's a instructive link to Islamofascist logic -- which explains why it might be morally wrong to kill Jewish children, but contextually explicable ...
And some folks in the US think Islamofascists should be reasoned with ...
(wave of the wing, and thanks for the tip from Lost Budgie...)
Addendum: ADDENDUM: BTW, LostBudgie made me aware of how suicide bombers wrap Mr. Happy in aluminum foil before pressing the button ... to save themselves for paradisal bliss, I suppose. Can't argue with logic like that ... ¶ 6:45 AM
