Farida apa,
We have no way of know if "Due process" was followed with this
unfortunate lady.
Watching any death is difficult for average people. Be it for commit
sex out of marriage or killing an innocent human being. Maybe you live
in a liberal city and you do not look at it as a big deal. That is your
God given choice. Most religious scriptures differs with you.
Practicing Muslims may agree with you if the women was not given
opportunity to defend herself. I also think the way that "Punishment"
was given ( No privacy) was improper. But if someone has a diffent
point of view about marriage as an important institution, I think we
should respect that point of view. In Islam marriage is a special
contract. Millions of people take that contract sincerely. That does
not make them part of anti-liberation force. Our glorious march to
freedom is history. It is not proper to insert into every discussion.
Shalom.

Subject: [ALOCHONA] Stoning a woman: Only the suffering is real, any
justification of it is fake and crininal
I post the following pictures for those who adamently refused to use
their God-given faculty of 'imagination' and condemned the photo
illustration of stoning a woman in a local newspaper (April, 02, 2010)
as an example of liberal "anti-Islamism'.
I had checked the Star magazine and found it to be a photo
illustration, a sort of art-work for the lead article: "Crime in the
Name of Belief."
http://www.thedailystar.net/magazine/2010/02/04/cover.htm
It was NOT presented as a journalistic photo. There were no captions
identifying the figures in the photo, I argued, -- no name, date or
place attached to it. It was merely a dramatized photographic art-work
to illustrate the topic at hand. Yet there was a big noise made about
fakery, how the photo session was "staged" and therefore dishonest,
disingenuous, conspiracy against Islam, etc.
I was roundly ridiculed as anti-Islamic, as if stoning women
as punishment of sinful women is such an integral part of Islam that
any criticism of any inhuman aspect of it must be branded automatically
as anti-Islamic. Taj Hashmi even wrote a long article, "Mullahs are
Coming! Mullahs are Coming!" taunting the Islamophobes and fear-mongers.
Below is an example of photo-journalism that depicts an
actual event of stoning a young woman to death in Somalia, a country
plunged in the depth of lawlessness in the name of Sharia, and no one
in the world community seems to care. These pictures are stark, in
plain view, and require no imagination nor any feeling for a fellow
human being.
Supporters of a brutal genocide -- Genocide 1971 of Bangladesh -- bear
the hearts and minds of these stone-throwers of Somalia.
