It's a mad mad mad mad mad world

I hope that the pregnant girlfriend can flee, but if not, perhaps she would do better to kill herself, rather than be separated from her baby and then be stoned to death as well. How gracious of Al-Shabab to temporarily stay the execution of a pregnant woman.

WAKE UP SOMALIA! SPEAK UP!

Somali adulterer stoned to death

Islamists in southern Somalia have stoned a man to death for adultery but spared his pregnant girlfriend until she gives birth.
Abas Hussein Abdirahman, 33, was killed in front of a crowd of some 300 people in the port town of Merka.
An official from the al-Shabab group said the woman would be killed after she has had her baby.
Islamist groups run much of southern Somalia, while the UN-backed government only control parts of the capital.
This is the third time Islamists have stoned a person to death for adultery in the past year.

Wow! I love how Islam (Millennium Version 14.00.2.200.9) works. Adultery, if a sin, it's outcome/results are limited to the two people involved or maximum to the families of the two adulterers and is severely punished, but where corruption, murder and rape et cetera are concerned, Islam (Millennium Version 14.00.2.200.9) is looking the other way. Bravo!
