"According to human rights lawyers, there are many cases of this kind before the Saudi courts."
"Saudi Arabia: Mother moves to block child marriage," from Adnkronos International, August 11:
Riyadh, 11 August (AKI) - The Saudi Arabian mother of an eight-year-old girl is trying to stop her marrying a middle-aged man who made a marriage contract with the girl's father in the province of al-Qasim, in the centre of the country.
The father's consent is needed to validate the marriage contract between the man, who is in his fifties and the child. He reportedly agreed to the union in exchange for an undisclosed sum of money.
According to the Saudi newspaper, Okaz, the news emerged after the mother of the child reported her husband and took him to court to prevent the marriage from going ahead.
Referring to another case where a man in his seventies was charged for marrying a ten-year-old girl in the area of Asir, south of Mecca, the woman also sought the help of local human rights groups.
The mother of the girl said her husband has two other wives, and considering the age of the child, asked for the contract to be withdrawn to allow her to have a normal childhood.
More normal than Aisha's childhood.
According to human rights lawyers, there are many cases of this kind before the Saudi courts.
One Hundred Billion plus spent over forty years to make the World safe for Wahabism, and that's STILL not enough to ensure that time stands still in The Land of The Two Noble Sanctuaries--do they REALLY think, deep down, that they can remake the whole world over into the image of Eighth- to Eighteenth-Century Arabia, and that the absurd contradictions inherent in their deen are normative, immutable, and God ordained? How do you say, "nation of psychotics"?
Apparently, they do, John. With lots of help from the Dhimmi State Department and friends in high places wiithout spines.
Oh, come on. It's cultural. Nothing to do with Islam. Q 33:21
Friends and allies and all that. Who are we to judge?
/sarc tag. (Just in case someone can't tell.)
Nothing to do with mohammedanism folks. Nothing to see here. Just move along...
Will Asma Q. Numani begin to hint, in her public appearances, about Aisha's age, and stop referring to her as a "young woman" and all the rest of it? Or will she be one of those pseudo-reformers of Islam, who justifies her silences on the main thing because she is trying to establish a "conversation" within Islam, and doesn't want to queer her pitch by, in the manner of the truth-tellers (Wafa Sultan, Ayaan Hirsi Ali), letting the Infidels in on too much, lest this very act hold Islam up to ridicule, and infuriate those Muslims with whom she wants to "start that conversation"?
Bright Young Reforming Muslims, in their considerable residual loyalty to Islam, and willingness, even as they are made much of for their Bright-Young-Reformingness, to obscure much of Islam (sometimes out of ignorance, sometimes out of calculation), require Infidel vigilance. Don't be satisfied with those who think that 20%, or 33%, "of the truth" about Islam is good enough. It isn't.

Marriage? Union? Try "selling his child into sexual slavery". Absolutely disgusting.

Someone agreed with you John.
When I, a thoughtful and unblessed Presbyterian, examine the Koran, I know that beyond any question every Mohammedan is insane, not in all things, but in religious matters. I cannot prove to him that he is insane, because you never can prove anything to a lunatic — for that is a part of his insanity and the evidence of it.

"in exchange for an undisclosed sum of money"
So what? You can sell cattle, can't you?
Marriage? Union? Try "selling his child into sexual slavery".
Exactly. Let's tell it like it is here and quit beating around the bush. Islam is a huge brothel that seeks to satisfy it's PAYING customers, i.e., Muslim men, and the victims of their lust are reduced to nothing more than objects to be used abused and unfortunately for these little kids, destroyed. Ah, all the better to break them down and build them up in the image of good little Muslim automatons.
I wonder, do Muslim women, children, and pets feel pain, or are they immune to the daily degradation, humiliation and terror that they experience? And why should we be so shocked by Muslims committing terrorist acts against our people to get their way? They do it to their own families every day.
So I guess as a nation we would have to ask ourselves, do we want to move from a society that respects and appreciates the inherent differences between men and women and one that protects and nurtures children while they are growing up or do we want to go with the "it's okay to have sex with anything that moves, and the end justifies the means" concept that Islam proposes? We better make up our minds pretty quick or they will be made up for us.
Imagine a religion designed by and for child molesters.
Imagine legally killing your own children because they "dishonored" you.
Imagine a religion that establishes sexual slavery.
Imagine a religion that endorses the murder of every Jew on the planet.
Imagine a religion that has killed hundreds of millions.
hint: Starts with an "I"............
Imagine a religion designed by and for child molesters.
i wounder how many child molesters have converted to islam and how many of them work at the state dept trying to bring sharia law into the usa so the can do this shite legally and enjoy there perversion
The pedophile warlord said Allah approved of it, so the mother must be silent.
Allah said she is only worth half of a man, anyway.
Lovely, that Islam.
What else do you expect?
A pedophile prophet founds a pedophilia based religion with pedophile adherents.
Mohammad the pig, his followers the piglets.
Let's hear Sir Winston Churchill again, on the enslavement of women, under Islam:
"The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men".
I forget who made the quote, but it was along the lines of having to suspend reality in order to read fiction, it was in reference to the The Da Vinci Code. Well islam definitely fits in that mode. In fact, islam doesn't just suspend reality, it utterly destroys reality. Islam rejects the world's reality and replaces it with it's own.(for those who watch Mythbusters, Adam has a t-shirt about replacing reality) I just hope we can shatter than fantasy world before we are all doomed.
Mom is correct here. What does dad think she is - 9?
