On Aug. 31, a Colorado court sentenced Al-Turki, a Saudi national, to 27 years in prison for sexually assaulting his maid, forcibly imprisoning her and not paying her wages. Muhammad Al-Enezi, a teacher at one of the largest high schools in Jeddah, asserts that this intimidation and harassment will deter other Saudis from going to the United States.
Al-Turki, 37, said that US authorities were persecuting him for traditional Muslim behaviors. He blamed anti-Muslim prejudice for his conviction and the severity of the sentence. As a Muslim man, it is my God-given right to abuse women, said Al-Turki. It is written in the Quran. There is no higher law. This prosecution is bogus.
Women are Allahs gift to Muslim men, said Jamar Assen, a government employee and father of two. There is no rape. The woman is an adulterer. It is she who should be punished. I am not going to sacrifice my sons by sending them to the US as long as the Americans continue their persecution of Muslims.
Al_turki has been unsuccessful in his efforts to enlist the American Civil Liberties Union to his cause. We are conflicted, admitted ACLU spokesman Bertram Petty. We would normally consider a womans accusation of rape to be dispositive in such cases. However, we also believe that members of a persecuted minority can never be guilty. We are morally and ideologically paralyzed in this case.

OK now you're slipping into the realm of hard news.
Women are Allahs gift to Muslim men, said Jamar Assen, a government employee and father of two. There is no rape. The woman is an adulterer. It is she who should be punished. I am not going to sacrifice my sons by sending them to the US as long as the Americans continue their persecution of Muslims.
And this is bad because?
Under Sharia law, the woman would have to produce at least four male witnesses to the crime in order to prove a charge of rape. The cultural and moral divide between Islam and the West is incompatible and eventually will turn into the most horrific war in history.
People, people, its a joke!!! Keyword satire!!
(shaking head, then checking the action on m,y pistol. These people are wacko!)
I will KILL anybody who says I'm violent!
noooo! you should have just let them go at it-- that's half the fun!
You sure that the ACLU bit is satire?
Ok...you had me going until this unbelievable line. No Saudi native would use the word bogus. Everything else seems absolutely plausible.
I'd like to see it as a slap in the face, if not a shot between the eyes to some of these thugs. It's like Joe Bonano complaining about being discriminated against for being an "Italian American."
Fugitabowdit!
Thugs are thugs and need to be dealt with as such. I think the phrase is "the Chicago way!"
Well, sandmaggot doofus, you got 27 years (mebbe 12 with time off for good behavior [ha!]) to thinkaboudit!
And yes, we would consider it a favor if you keep your retarded sons out of the U.S....
You dweeb!
The joke's on you.
This "satire" is indistinguishable from the real world.
Odd, a google search shows 15,000 + hits including Denver Post articles about this.
Read some of the articles on which this is based - I thought they were satire - this one is not so exaggerated.

Yeah, I doubt that they every admit to being indecisive, besides unless there is a leader with a compelling reason to appear patriotic, they always oppose the US.
It is semi-satire.
I DO but it will take some time and blacks must leave behind leaches like Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton plus many other liberals. Their intent is to keep blacks down so that they have a constituency to exploit. I think there are many blacks who are starting to see this but it will take many more.
