Fatal Facebook

A Saudi woman was murdered by her father for committing the horrific, un-Islamic sin of chatting on Facebook: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/global/main.jhtml?xml=/global/2008/03/31/noindex/wsaudi131.xml&CMP=EMC-expat2008.

Yeah, that'll convince us in the West that we should all love Islam...........

The article goes on to explain how the Saudi establishment justifies the killing:

The case was reported on a Saudi Arabian news site as an example of the "strife" the social networking site is causing in the Islamic nation.

Yup, peaceful and tolerant Islamic government....

It's her fault!
It's Facebook's fault!

But for God's sake, it's not my fault!

What a fucked up mindset....

Michael - I don't think they care about being peaceful and tolerant. They want to prevent people from straying away from the strict rules.
