The face of Sharia

[1] Agence France Presse reports that "seven Iranian women in the southwestern city of Shiraz were sentenced to 50 lashes each for undermining strict Islamic codes during the holy month of Ramadan, a hardline paper reported."
What did they do to deserve 50 lashes? "The women, wearing heavy makeup, were dancing and listening to loud music at the time of 'iftar', the evening meal that breaks the day-long fast during Ramadan, making fun of fasting Muslims, the Kayhan newspaper said."
Well, that was rude. But 50 lashes?
This is the kind of society that radical Muslims are laboring to impose everywhere they can.
