Oh Dear, Oh Dear

[BlueToffee]

I have just heard on the radio news that a 25 year old pregnant woman has been stoned to death in Pakistan by her father and family because the father hadn't sanctioned the marriage.

How very, very sad for the poor woman, and how sad that such barbaric behaviour still exist in the world.

R I P dear girl.

Sorry, hadn't seen it.

[emmie]

if you have a look i think everyone agrees its a terrible story.

[DrFilth]

don't worry you are not the first and will not be the last

[emmie]

indeed no.

[mikey4444]

Dreadful but this is an action by a uneducated and stupid group of people, and I hope that nobody on here uses this sad news for yet another scatter-gun shot at Muslims in general.

[ChillDoubt]

Kerrist mikey, give it a rest!

[emmie]

if we want to use a blunderbuss then so be it,
small groups of people cause trouble, gosh.

[emmie]

Boko Harem, Taliban, Al Qaeda and more and more fringe groups trying to destabilise societies across the globe, in parts of Africa, India, Pakistan, Russia, China, Afghanistan, Syria, The Muslim Brotherhood, not a charity as someone suggested once, in some parts of Europe, what makes any body think that the aim is not to spread the word across the globe, the word according to Allah.

[dunnitall]

I would go along with that emmie.

[DaisyNonna]

Not sad. Abhorrent, disgusting, sick, I could go on. What sort of a father would sanction this? What has he gained? What has he lost?

[ladybirder]

I suppose in his mind he thinks he has saved his family's honour. He thinks he's saved face.

[DaisyNonna]

No, too late for that. You do not restore honour by acting inhumanely.

[emmie]

barbarism that's all it is.

[ladybirder]

Agreed Daisy, but that's not how he sees it.

[DaisyNonna]

So what is his sentence?
Seem to think he has committed murder. Or am I mistaken?

[askyourgran]

It illustrates how barbaric they are, ignorant in the sense if humanity towards his own daughter, but all knowing of Islam and the rewards of heaven. What and insidious religion it is.

I presume that it is on Youtube, the stoning that is......just about sums it up as to their views.
