Saudi judge considers paralysis punishment
Yahoo News / AP ^ | Aug 19 2010 | SALAH NASRAWI

Posted on 08/20/2010 3:12:38 AM PDT by Rashputin

Abdul-Aziz al-Mutairi, 22, was left paralyzed and subsequently lost a foot after a fight more than two years ago. He asked a judge in northwestern Tabuk province to impose an equivalent punishment on his attacker under Islamic law, his brother Khaled al-Mutairi told The Associated Press by telephone from there.

He said one of the hospitals, located in Tabuk, responded that it is possible to damage the spinal cord, but it added that the operation would have to be done at another more specialized facility. Saudi newspapers reported that a second hospital in the capital Riyadh declined, saying it could not inflict such harm.

Islamic mercy and justice all rolled into one wonderful example.

I've read of those who lost a hand for stealing a sandwich or an apple, but this seems to me to be extreme even by their own barbaric standards. Take the guy out and shoot him if you want, but imposing this sort of thing is deliberate torture and barbarism. It won't help the victim as much as seeing the perp shot would.

Muslims are apparently still living in the Stone Age.

Words of Jesus in Mark 6:15

“But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.”

That means you must forgive if you want to be forgiven.

Islam is a Satanic death cult.

If nothing else tells one that sharia must NEVER be allowed here, this does. Sharia is evil, utterly.

religious traditions that critics say are out of sync with a modern society
Yeah, in the same way that a serial rape-murderer is "out of sync" with polite society.

Coming soon to American with obamacare:

Pelosi said one of the hospitals, located in San Francisco, responded that it is possible to damage the spinal cord, but it added that the operation would have to be done at another more specialized facility for Tea Party members.

... another more specialized facility for Tea Party members. LOL, right, the one where there are no sanitary facilities and they don't use pain killers. I can see Pelosi saying, "we have to respect their culture" or some other nonsense about this. Regards

Lets stop it right now.

That “judge” ..to even consider this...is little more than a reconstitution or reincarnation of a sadistic Nazi.

No it isn't.

I tried prior to posting and didn't find that. What keywords did you use or how did you search so I can do a better job in the future as I obviously used the wrong ones.

Use ‘titles’ search and ‘paralysis.’

I always use titles and pick an uncommon word or two from the title. I don’t use ‘keywords.’

Works very well.

Still is. That satatanic death cult is probably the most dangerous thing on the planet because not enough people don't realize how satanic it's origins are.

OTOH, we should consider imposing an equivalent punishment on all Moslems for the fourteen centuries of crimes of Islam. Thanks Rashputin.
