wheels Posted September 28, 2011 Author Share Posted September 28, 2011 Back to the middle ages again A court in Saudi Arabia has sentenced a woman to 10 lashes for breaking the country's ban on female drivers. The woman, identified only as Shema, was found guilty of driving in Jeddah in July. Women2drive, which campaigns for women to be allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia, says she has already lodged an appeal. In recent months, scores of women have driven vehicles in Saudi cities in an effort to put pressure on the monarchy to change the law. The sentence comes two days after the Saudi leader King Abdullah announced women would be allowed to vote for the first time in 2015. Two other women are due to appear in court later this year on similar charges, correspondents say. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-15079620 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radfahrer Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 (In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S. and Britain To elect the President by themselves! Rest assured they will do so... You can look at how they have taken over several towns in the USA .. Dearborn Mich. Is one... And there are others...) (Britain has several cities now totally controlled by Muslims.)This quote was sent to me by a muslim living in the island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terse Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 King Abdullah Intervenes "Saudi King Abdullah has overturned a court verdict that sentenced a Saudi woman to be lashed 10 times for defying the kingdom's ban on women driving." Interestingly - "It was the first time a legal punishment had been handed down for breaking the longtime ban in the ultraconservative Muslim nation. No laws prohibit women from driving, but conservative religious edicts have banned it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
