You cannot judge others beyond how it relates to you, so no amount of outward devotion and piety of others saves them from your judgment of how you think they have wronged you. There is no such thing as “innocent” because you don’t get to decide that. Only God does. So you can kill a child and the deed is not something you can be judged for. Only God can judge you, too. And Muslims can find all kinds of justification in Islam to absolve themselves in the eyes of God for anything they do if they convince themselves that they do it for Islam.

This man walked into a public place and beheaded a 15 month old boy who he probably loved very much. He probably did it with no sense of guilt because Islam allows such things to be done. He probably did it to punish the mother and father of the boy for whatever dispute they were having. In his mind, the child is now in paradise and he did a good thing for the boy, and got revenge on the parents for whatever they did to him.

That’s Islam.

What a horrible, evil man.

If you’re going to pile on, please deliver facts. No more BS anecdotes are necessary.

Sorry, my mistake. Thought that most of those who comment of this board kept up with current events. This story was widely published in the media. I think most are avid reaaders and not only have great reading comprehension, but also retain what they read.

If you need more links to such stories, let me know.

As she emerges from her mud-walled house carried high on her elder brother’s shoulder two-year-old Rabia is blissfully unaware of the life that awaits her.

Two-year-old Rabia
In 14 years, if the ruling of the village council – or panchayat – where she lives in rural Pakistan is obeyed, she will be married to a man 33 years her senior.

The decision was taken last week as a punishment against her uncle, Mohammed Akmal, who was found to have slept with another man’s wife. As part of the compensation deal he also agreed to pay 230,000 rupees

In Pakistan, not only do illegal child marriages sometimes occur, they happen on the orders of village councils of elders. Under Pakistan’s Muslim Family Law Ordinance, a girl must reach 16, and a boy must reach 18, before a marriage can take place. Both parties must give consent. Pakistan ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of Child in 1990. In February this year in Dera Ismail Khan in Punjab province, a four year old girl was married to a 45-year old man. The child had been ordered to marry as “compensation” to settle a family feud by a local council of elders, to settle a family feud. The girl’s uncle had transgressed custom by eloping with the 45-year old man’s niece.
This custom is known in Punjab and Sindh province as “vani”, and in the tribal areas of North-West Frontier province, the practice is called “swara”. Essentially it is the same in all three provinces; a tribal council (called a panchayat in Punjab, a jirga in Sindh and NWFP) orders a male to expiate a crime by sacrificing a girl relative in marriage. Vani marriage was outlawed at the start of 2005 by the Pakistani government, after a case in Multan in 2004 where a three-year old girl was married off to a 60-year old man. Muslim clerics solemnize these marriages, and even offer dire threats to girls and their families if they do not comply.

In November 2005 a panchayat in the village of Sultanwala in Punjab ordered that if five girls did not comply with orders of vani marriage, they should be abducted, raped or killed. The girls had been ordered as vani compensation in 1996, when they were aged between six and 13 years, after a male relative had shot a family rival. The girls had then been married “in absentia” by an Islamic cleric.

Vani marriages can be ordered against girl children who have not even been born. In Dera Ghazi Khan, Punjab on April 7, 2006, a case of vani came to light where a council ordered that four as-yet unborn girls from one family should be promised as compensation for a murder committed eight years earlier.

Follow his footsteps and they call you mad?

That’s a start on the road to recovery.

But we should wait for Reuters’ take on the story.

Maybe the kid drew a caricature of the prophet?

Because Saudis are indoctrinated to hate from birth until death.

I’ll say it again – these kinds of things disprove the existence of any God who is not himself the Devil.

I read the story of an English ex-pat who was stopped at an intersection in Saudi Arabia when a teenaged girl in an abaya jumped out of the trunk of the car next to him. She raised her hands to the sky and shouted for her mother. Then her father jammed her back into the trunk and locked it. He was opening his door to help her when the veteran ex-pat with him told him to stop, he could do nothing. The girl was obviously being taken out to the desert to be killed for dishonoring her family somehow. There were a lot of Saudi girls buried in the desert.

The Saudis are evil barbarians, Neanderthals in skyscrapers and BMWs, who love death as we love life. The barbarian violence they inflict on each other is the same violence they export to the world. The answer is to sever the flow of petrodollars to these religious maniacs, destroy their state, and drive them back into the desert.

The man, who is the boy’s maternal uncle, apparently killed the boy following a dispute with his sister and brother-in-law.

So because I’m mad at my sister and her husband i should kill their child?
Oh yeah! Religion of Peace! Right, I forgot!

Dude, come on! ‘Internet’ is spelled with a capital ‘I’!

So, put me in a oven grammar Nazi.

I would have torn that SOB to pieces.

Such lovely people. We should negociate a surrender a la Dhimmicrats and allow Islam to subvert our culture with a quaint dose of Sharia.

internet cowboy, you stay tough behind that keyboard.

Dude, come on! ‘Internet’ is spelled with a capital ‘I’!

jes’ sayin’

I don’t see any humor in this. Are some of you *that* jaded?

Nut job Saudi beheads child = culture is flawed

Docs abort 1,000,000 babies = confused as to right solution

Gimme a break. Nut job. Same kinda nut job as the lady who killed a woman so she could steal her baby. Same kinda nut job who drowns her children in a bathtub, or a father who puts lead in his kids. Nut job.

I see your point, but isn’t the difference the wanton disregard for life? I think the difference, and social commentary that can be made, that in Saudi Arabia honor killings aren’t contradictory to human nature and decency. And with abortion religion comes down on the side life, not so in the magic kingdom.

I see your point and agree with it to a certain degree, but I think it is a bit of an opposite situation.

It certainly didn’t, me.

Believe me, anyone who has a myspace page to blog and not get on other free blogging sites, obviously doesn’t look around the www much.

upinak on March 3, 2008 at 1:48 PM

What makes you think I have any desire to blog? Because I have random ramblings on my myspace page? I’ve changed it to a link that is more your speed.

I liked your blog though…. oh wait, thats right; you didn’t bother to link anything at all. Ah, but you still feel necessary to criticize me for offering people a little access to myself. Good work there, internet cowboy, you stay tough behind that keyboard.
