Saudi punishes gang rape victim with 200 lashes
Saudi punishes gang rape victim with 200 lashes: “A court in the ultra-conservative kingdom of Saudi Arabia is punishing a female victim of gang rape with 200 lashes and six months in jail, a newspaper reported on Thursday. The 19-year-old woman — whose six armed attackers have been sentenced to jail terms — was initially ordered to undergo 90 lashes for ‘being in the car of an unrelated male at the time of the rape,’ the Arab News reported. But in a new verdict issued after Saudi Arabia’s Higher Judicial Council ordered a retrial, the court in the eastern town of Al-Qatif more than doubled the number of lashes to 200″

What absurdity is this. It’s the men who raped the girl who should get the 200 lashes each in addition to serving their time in jail. If any feminist is looking for what real discrimination against women is like, they ought to take a trip to Saudi Arabia. And they can stay there as far as I’m concerned.
women get raped every day, just not in America & Iraq or ?
