Bangladesh: Rape victim receives 101 lashes for becoming pregnant

Bangladesh: Rape victim receives 101 lashes for becoming pregnant
...........................

A day or two ago, Muslim poster Humza was stunned by this story: Saudi Arabia to Lash Filipino Rape Victim (Jan 23, 2010)—he claimed that Islam would *never* punish a rape victim. Perhaps he was sincere in his shock—if so, he is terribly misinformed.

Here are a few other stories:

"Saudi judge sentences pregnant gang-rape victim to 100 lashes for "committing adultery" (February 2009)

"Rape victim sentenced to 200 lashes" (Saudi Arabia, November, 2007)

"Saudi court sentences rape victim to 90 lashes" (November, 2006)
...

Here is a good article on this terrible subject from Front Page Magazine:

"How Sharia Law Punishes Raped Women"

What about the student exchange with Muhams in Seatle?
What about Obama's plan to reach out to the Muham world?
What about the Religious pollster who wants Americans and Muham to understand each other better? And what about CAIR's objectives for better relations?

Yeah, better relations, like letting the snake bit you because you offended it or letting the vampire bat drain you of blood because you feel sorry for it.

All this Muham bullshit deceptions and attempted deceptions remind me of the squeezing of the balloon image where as soon as they cover one act, another pops out. Or maybe 'Whack a Mole'.

The entire Bangladesh community should be dismantled and deprogrammed.

And we are making catering to this barbarism throughout the world. At some point we are going to have to be prepared to get dirty. We have a social and/or governmental flat tire that needs to get changed or complete engine failure and there is no one around to do it for us. We are going to have to open more channels for action against this criminal insanity. Sitting around chatting about it is similar to watching someone getting raped, killed, abused, terrorized, etc. and simply saying 'Oh, my goodness, did you see that'.

Are we at Jihad Watch and other sites the only ones chatting about these obamanations. Where is the U. N.? Where are all the governments that can do something about this trash? Are we left to sit at our computers and bitch and complain? Are we going to have to answer these aggressions and violations with more force? Are we going to have to stand up against this demonizing of culture by engaging in the inevitable Global Civil War as the only means of purging this planet of its diseases?

There is no bigger crime than to bear false witness, to judge against a victim of a violent crime, while letting the criminal go free and then to punish the victim harshly, without mercy. For them await the torment of Satan's Hellfire for eternity.

And why is the rapist pardoned? Because it takes 4 witnesses to prove rape in islam.

But the secret is out because she is pregnant. A simple DNA test would prove who the father was. Then the husband or the rapist would be identified as the father.

If the rapist is the father, he would then be punished for sex outside of marriage. But he was pardoned by the elders. The old boys club.

It doesn't take two to tango in islam. Virgin birth!

And why bother with that black covering if they STILL get raped?

Sickeningly enough, the rapist can get custody of this child when it's born since the girl is now branded as a harlot.

An even more perverse thought is that her rapist could demand marriage to her.

Why, oh why, does any woman KNOWINGLY convert to islame in the face of its many abuses of the feminine half of its followers???

At least many Bangladeshis feel the way we do about this, judging by this Daily Star editorial and the comments on it:

The 101 lashes is horrible, but I'm not buying the rape allegation. From this distance, it looks much more likely that they were just lovers.

Still, it's a barbaric punishment.

Its because of victims like her that this medieval death cult Islam needs to be eradicated. A psychotic man (Mohammad) invented this evil religion which lead to a retarded, sick and demented society, which continues to destroy lives to this day.

If Islam was a cult of only a few hundred people, its leaders would've already been arrested/jailed and its victims freed and re-educated. The problem is that since 1.5 billion people are cult-members, it has legitimacy due to its sheer size/following, most people's utter ignorance of its teachings/doctrines and frankly its also due to fear of muslims attacking and killing any critics/opponents of Islam that it continues to function largely with impunity.

We need leaders who are clued up on Islam and who have the will to do what is right-which is to end this cancer in the world that's killed over 270 million people, destroyed dozens of civilizations and continues to make peoples lives (especially women) a living hell. Islam's first and greatest victims are muslims, but eventually us non-muslims suffer horrendously from it as well.

An aside, I don't want to see the Europe I admired for so long (which is now on the brink) to be turned into an Islamic dungheap like Pakistan or any of the 50 other 'muslim paradise' states. I hope we in the West wake up in time and save our precious and amazing civilization.

Lastly thank you Mr Spencer (and others like you such as Pamela Geller) for your tireless, heroic effort in informing the masses about Islam-you are great freedom fighters. I do get the sense that many people are waking up and 'smelling the jihad'.

I just hope its enough to build that 'critical mass' we need to stop Islamification and defeat this evil ideology once and for all, so future generations don't have to deal with it as we are. Too bad it wasn't eliminated in WW2 along with its ugly twin sister ideology, Nazism. Better late than never.

Hi, I am from Bangladesh, and I want to clear some misconceptions and lack of knowledge cited by some commentors.

First of all Bangladesh is a Muslim majority democracy and does not have Sharia law like Pakistan. Pakistan's Ziaul Haque regime adopted Sharia Law in 1978.

The Bangladeshi law is governed by age old British rule of law (yes it was a British colony). More over Fatwa and other Sharia decrees are illegal in Bangladesh (and uphold by several court rulings in 2000 & 2010).

Bangladesh is long fighting with the Islamists (the current government detained leaders of Islami parities on charges of war crimes) and is trying to ban religios politics. The Islami parties advocate for Sharia - but their popularity you can judge from the % of votes they received - only 2 constituencies out of 300 in the last election.

Now as I interpret the news - Although Fatwa and these kinds of punishments are illegal, the village poor are not aware of their rights so their are exploited by village religious leaders who try to exert their power by using all kind of eveil means.

As a Bangladeshi (of any religion) we oppose the Sharia and we want every people to be aware of their rights. We want human rights groups to encourage people to fight for their legal rights against these medieval punishments.

For those in the comment section thinks that being born a Muslim means advocating for Sharia then they are living in a fools hell. I would welcome them to visit Bangladesh and Indonesia (except Bandah Aceh which adopts Sharia) to see that Sharia is nor admired here by the majority except for some Islamist nationalists and religious parties.
