I completely disagree with you :smile:.

Edited to add: forcing a young girl to marry her rapist sounds very western doesn't it.

Your quick are'nt you -

Angry Moroccans are demanding a change to the country's strict Islamic penal code after a 16-year-old girl killed herself after being forced to marry her rapist.


You knew that was coming....anything to do with Islam is not aloud to be mentioned when it is a situation/crime that is atypical to muslim countries.

People are too sensitive to the issue.

Why, is it in Islamic law the rapist can marry the victim and he will be cleared?

Islamic law does not punish rape,it punishes sex outside marriage


How do you know that? Are you Muslim? :confused:

then i think the punishment for rape would be worse in regards to violence also being used

Well I hope that goes to show you that there are Muslims who disagree with their current penal code and want to live in a fairer country.

Probably because most Muslim countries are about as far from western as we are in distance from Hawaii.


well what are you basing being western on? culture, religion what?
perhapse i should clarify what i meant though when i said western it was in the relative sense which being the case makes it about the most western nation out of the rest of the islamic nations ... all you have to do is get the boat from spain to Tangier or fly to Marrakesh and you'll see that the population behaves very much like that in the west ... barring the bazaars and calls to prayer at 4am :rolleyes:

People who resort to sarcasm in internet forums fail by default

Nice way of counter-arguing my original point.

In general I just mean they arnt really the same. Culturally, economically, religiously, they even speak a seperate language.

what does that have to do with it being un-westernised?


Everything.

Very sorry, but have you studied the Islamic law or something?

Yes, Virginia, some cultures are more civilised than others.
Sadly this sort of thing isn't exclusive to Morocco, which has traditionally been one of the more progressive Muslim states. Much of the Muslim world still has these kinds of laws. Saudi Barbaria, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, etc. It's all business as usual to brutally oppress women like this. Even in the most progressive Muslim states like the UAE, Jordan and Turkey (which has a very strong secular movement), women are still seen to be inferior to men in to varying degrees.

Are you implying that non-muslims cannot comment on islam ?

and detaining people indefinitely without trial is oh so much better isnt...? every country has its faults.
i take it you dont follow the news though do you? you do realise morocco was caught in the arab spring and has been under going drastic liberalisation? the fact a law exists doesnt mean people agree with it ... we in england can shoot a scotsman within the walls of york by law again does that sound westernised to you...

i've just looked at the rest of your threads ... youre one of these muslim bashers, should have seen this coming. you cannot blaim an entire populace for the actions of their government.

not surprising, this is normal in islamic countries. in afghanistan for example a woman was given the choice to go to jail or marry her rapist.

If detaining people without trial is the worst western breach of HR you can think of then your on a slippery slope, sorry. Most countries do that. In China, you'll be executed in a van for bribery.
