You aren't the first person to say that. It's my gift to the world.

What a nice gift it is.

Daily Mail is hard to trust, but if this IS true... then this is so backward. How can one compare the use of social networking to adultery is beyond me.

It's not just daily mail that is hard to trust.

The fact that this story was picked up a minor arab website that I have never heard of and then propagated by a news agency which is controlled by the Iranian regime leads me to believe this story is nonsense.

not sure how this is against sharia law but i dont know much about it .

the said it was similar to adultery !!!

well RIP Fatoum Al-Jassem,

I think I remember "examiner.com" being heavily biased against Muslims, to the point of making up fake stories, so I'd certainly hope this isn't true

I'd believe it, if it was posted say in a more reliable newspaper (on two counts - both examiner and the DM)

Actually I believe the examiner is one of those places where any body can write any thing up(?)

examiner.com is controlled by the Iranian government? :lolwut:

are you sure bro?

Excerpt from the daily mail article;

A report in the Arabic-language Al-Rai Al-Youm was picked up by the Fars news agency, a semi-autonomous organisation linked to the Iranian government.

Fars news agency is a mouthpiece for the Iranian regime with links to many some organisations in the regime.

It has claimed, amongst many things that the USA is run by a secret aliens...

The United States’ domestic and international policy has been driven by an “alien/extraterrestrial intelligence agenda” since 1945,*Iran’s FARS News Agency claimed in a recent report.

According to the state-run Fars news agency, the “incontrovertible proof” supporting the revelations was found in a Federal Security Service (FSB) report, carried out by American computer specialist Edward Snowden.

Snowden reportedly contacted the Guardian’s columnist Glenn Greenwald telling him, according to Fars, that there “were actually two governments in the United States, the one that was elected, and the other, secret regime, governing in the dark.”

Am I the only one finding it strange how a Syrian girl would have access to a computer, let alone internet? (Forgive my ignorance).

it doesn't work like that mate. when you make a baseless accusation like that you gotta back it up with solid evidence.

Terrible

Well just a couple of things from experience
the name fatoum is an Egyptian Sudan north African tradition
while the al-jasim name is gulf
so it would be very rare for a Syrian to have such a random combination of a name

And be on the Internet in a rebel controlled area.

Really? Why aren't people slightly more inquisitive about the sources, like they are every other matter on TSR? The Daily Fail got the article or information from 'The Examiner', who's author Michael Stone- some dude who lives in Oregon (obviously not a legit source)- referenced some Indian newspaper and another posted in Arabic. I googled it and after a little while found an article pointing out that the original source was FARS News Agency (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fars_News_Agency) that is notorious for posting ridiculously weird and fabricated stories on time machines and aliens (srs). The most convincing piece of evidence that suggests this is just false, is that the picture (I assume a lot of people took as a primary source for the incident) used in a lot of the articles (primarily one of the article's 'The Examiner' mentioned and uses as his reference) is from a movie called "The Stoning of Soraya". So yes, most likely this story is a complete and utter fabrication.

Seems like a fabricated story to be fair.
