Islam: Stonings, Amputations ... Justice!

Doug over at Director Blue has the whole ugly truth about Islamic law and why it must be purged not adopted by the West;

Reuters Africa:

Six people convicted by Islamic sharia courts in a northern Nigerian state are awaiting death by stoning, while 46 others are waiting for amputation, the official News Agency of Nigeria reported on Friday.

...The report did not say how many people were facing such penalties in 11 other northern Nigerian states that have criminal courts using sharia law. Such data is not collated centrally...

...Bauchi is one of 12 states in Nigeria's mainly Islamic north that adopted a harsh sharia-based criminal code eight years ago. The move alienated large Christian minorities and sparked bouts of sectarian violence that killed thousands...

It's not like they weren't warned. Authorities have helpfully distributed posters to describe various crimes and their consequences.

This poster depicts the crime on the left with the associated punishment on the right.

Crime: riding on a bike with a male.

Punishment: death by stoning.

Crime: stealing a cow.

Punishment: amputation of a hand.

I wonder if Archbishop Rowan Williams has seen these helpful posters?

Just today there was a report about the senior citizen sentenced to 4 months and 30 lashes...for walking a dog!

Islam teaches first degree murder in the Kuran's Surah 9.5 (enough people are familiar with it by now that I need not recite it here). So--

What kind of governance could anyone in their right mind expect from a "religious" ideology that is partly founded on beliefs such as that? (The answer is "shari'aat").

The horrors of sharia'aat cited above are ONLY the tip of the iceberg. Western civilization, unfortunately, is rapidly crashing into that (Islamic) iceberg and becoming another "Titanic."
