politics

I really wasn’t sure I should post this, but I almost feel I have no choice. I stumbled across this the other day after reading an article on Memri by Saudi Human and Women’s Rights Activist Wajeha Al-Huwaidar on how a large portion of Middle East population views women. Wajeha said this vid was from Iraq, but after a little more digging I learned it was from Syria. Allegedly the 17-year-old girl was beaten and stoned to death for ‘falling in love” with a young man who did not belong to her particular sect or family/social group. Whatever. This is quite possibly the most brutal thing I have ever seen. Watch it at your own risk. I really have no comment on this vid, draw your own conclusions. I think it’s best that way.
