a court in the UAE said its OK to beat your wife.

should i even post this? we know that that is how things work according to shariah. we know that that is what islam teaches.

This is still not as bad as some of the other islamic nations who punish the rape victims.

true that, but the UAE has the world's tallest tower, surely there needs to be some civilized values in a place like that.

[sarc]Come on... Some wives deserve beatings...[/sarc]

But seriously folks...

It is funny that liberals expect Arabs to be civilized... For some reason they resist civilization...

I'm going to take a page out of Chaim's strategy book and just say this.

Hmmmm, what do you guys think should happen? Just think it, don't post it!

The UAE is pretty close to a modern-day Babylon. They build huge modern buildings, gardens and even islands yet they're still a bunch of smelly, islamic camel-jockeys. Instead of using their massive wealth to educate and uplift their people they build extravagent worldy structures(all designed by non-muslims). Oh, and they also heavily recruit non-muslims to come work in Dubai because their own people are too retarded.

There are no human rights given with Muslims.

But there are civilized values. The ruling said that it's okay ONLY if it doesn't leave a mark. Given that you're speaking about islam and sharia, this is the equivalent of religious enlightenment.

Kahanist Liberal, this does not surprise me.

I recently read a story of a woman who had the misfortune of going to a supposedly developed arab country for work. She was raped and when she went to the police she was thrown in prison. Now some are calling for her murder as the rapist was married and this is considered adultery.

Of course, this is nothing compared to their treatment of children. A girl as young as 1 can be married, as her father can give consent on her behalf. However their prophet reasonably tells them to wait till a girl is 9 before raping her. What a religion of peace and beauty.

I look forward to the day when Moshiah frees the world of this sickness

Exactly. All of that was built and created by non-Muslim infidels. Without them, the UAE would be a joke.
