Just a couple of sentences from this morning's Times; following on from the bits I quoted from yesterday's --

In Somalia, a 13-year-old girl claimed she had been raped by three men. She found herself accused of adultery, was buried up to her neck inside a stadium and stoned to death in front of 1,000 people.

It's no use just getting all hysterical, Musket, and saying the people who did it were 'animals' ... 'ignorant peasants' doing what you denounce as 'fucking awful and abhorrent'... 'us[ing] religion to enforce their odious will on society'.

It was not 'ignorant peasants' enforcing anything; it was the judicial authorities of a sovereign state with which we maintain diplomatic relations administering the law which obtains within that jurisdiction. So will you still try to maintain this is not relevant to the subject of this thread, because we are talking about 'Islamic radicalism', which is somehow not germane to the laws to which it leads?

Oh, come on...
