Australian gang-raped in Dubai, then jailed for "sex outside of marriage"

Nope, but I never suggested that she was ... you are the ones making assertions

You are still mistaken, it would appear that you are incapable of learning a lesson

Have you ever heard of innocent till proven guilty?

Stuff like this makes me happy I live in the West.

You have your own assertions but have not mentioned them

What? What is sex?

She was sent to prison, so she was guilty of the offenses by law

Agree

As this article shows, wearing western clothes can sort of ruin your life.

Islamic barbarism. AGAIN.

"Gali’s Australian attorney explained that, as far as she understands, the crime is only considered rape under the country’s strict Islamic laws if there are “four adult, male Muslim witnesses that can provide evidence that the sex was non-consensual.”" - that was from the article posted by the OP.

Being raped is not and never should be an "offence," how can you be guilty of something some sick freak(s) decided to do to you?

I assumed you were referring to her being innocent of choosing to take drugs etc.

How can DNA prove rape instead of consensual sex?

I lived in Dubai for over 20 years and I can say first hand that women are more than treated equally. They are in fact, in a lot of circumstances, given priority over men since they make up a much smaller proportion of the population. The headline I think might be misleading in that her sentence was probably due to a number of reasons. I'm not saying she is lying or that I think rape is alright, but given the fact that all the convicted rapists were given reasonable sentences and deported, there may be more to it than it looks at first. Also we need to note that the Australian Consulate refused to assist her which suggests that she must have been involved in the act a lot more than she is leading us to believe.

nope, you are wrong with another assertion

It is not the same thing as an act of violence that involves penetration

They have a strict policy of how women should cover themselves up
They may have respected her more

May be the law felt that she could have taken more steps to prevent this occur

Reminds me of the western journalist in Egypt who was strip naked as she was too exposed

Yes I am
You have no assertions

In that case both involve sex

"....the crime is only considered rape under the country’s strict Islamic laws if there are “four adult, male Muslim witnesses that can provide evidence that the sex was non-consensual.” So do you bring along four male chaperons when you go out in the event of rape?

Dubai is a very rich place and Australia will have a lot of connections with it. Australia will make money also I imagine. An article like this could really damage things. Not many foreigners are going to go there if worried they're going to get raped and jailed.

At last

I will go back to ignorance, I guess you do not have the experience to know the difference
