If the Tsunami didn't Get Them, Sharia Law Might

I'm so mad as I post this that I had trouble putting it together. Where is the outcry from the rest of the world? Where's the UN? Where's our Congressmen - who so enjoy making trips around the world at taxpayers' expense to further their own agendas? This politically-correct-afflicted world just won't wake up to the reality of Islam.

In Indonesia, Sharia law has been implemented, and those of you who sent money to help with the Tsunami victims might like to know how your money is being spent.

In part, it is subsidizing public lashings.

Here are a few disgusting"highlights":

…militant Islamists have since imposed sharia law … and have cornered Indonesian government funds to organise a moral vigilante force that harasses women and stages frequent displays of humiliation and state-sanctioned violence

…there are more “sharia police” than regular police on the local government payroll and that many of them are aggressive young men.

And this… (if you can stomach it):

But if it is a woman guilty of wearing “improper” clothing or being caught in proximity to a man, there is a particular ritual to the punishment.
She is dressed in white robes and veiled. Policemen escort her up on to a stage erected before a jeering crowd, which, witnesses say, is usually almost exclusively male.
Forced to kneel, the woman waits while a masked man ascends the platform. He is carrying a cane with a curved handle designed to give the inflictor of God’s punishment a better grip. From the loudspeakers, a man’s voice sonorously recites the appropriate religious chastisement. Then he begins to count. With each number, the cane descends with a vicious lash.
According to witnesses, male onlookers often roar in delight and hurl pious imprecations at the victims, working themselves up to a pitch of excitement
