Was going to post this yesterday.

Just when you think that savage pack of twats who rule that country can do nothing to surprise you, they go that step further.

That is one Middle Eastern regime I would have no problem with seeing implode. Not going to happen though with America as their main oil customer.

And that El Empty thinks the decision was actually made by CIA/Mossad operatives in order to discredit Sharia law?

Nothing to do with sharia law though. You can't blame Islam for this (although many will of course)!

But yeah, certain agencies mentioned above and the Saudi rulers are hand in hand (which you must know), so in a way they are involved with this shit.

But hey-ho let's keep imagining that those agencies are enemies of the Saudi rulers!

Whilst I don't necessarily disagree, surely the whole eye for an eye style retribution justice is a very Islamic thing, doesn't it come directly from the Koran? Plus, it says in the article that the victim is asking for this "under Islamic law".
