Child marriage in Iran & KSA
Anyone seen this appalling story :frown:
http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/329317 When Saudi Arabia announced three months ago that girls as young as 10-years old would now be allowed to marry, Iran decided to drop the age limit even further |
Re: Child marriage in Iran & KSA
Well as its written in sharia law it must be OK, wasn't their prophet married to an 8 year old? Surely that is pedophilia.

Re: Child marriage in Iran & KSA
Baroness Jenny Tonge, chair of a British parliamentary inquiry looking at the issue of child brides, tells the Women's News Network, "We decided to look into child marriage because some two, three years ago we did an investigation into maternal mortality." "We realised that one of the major causes of maternal death is early marriage, and (that) the girls are married so young that their bodies are simply not ready for child birth." She tells the story of one young girl, "she was an eight-year-old who was married to a 45 to 50-year-old in Yemen, arranged by his family – died three days later after the first intercourse from bleeding. When you hear the stories, it just makes you feel quite sick."

True. This type of thing needs maximum publicity, to try and pressure these nasty regimes into behaving in a civilised manner.

That's no reason not to put pressure on them, or to condemn their behaviour. They need to be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century, for the sake of the young people at least.

With that in mind Saudi and Iran are actually being proper Muslims in this regard. A lot of Muslim terrorists are simply emulating their founder by waging war on infidels. Islam spread for centuries by war and little else. Unless they are willing to completely disregard huge and fundamental parts of their believe little will change. No other religion tells people they may lie to non-believers to defend their faith. No other religion demands the death penalty for leaving as far as I can tell either. And people wonder why I go on about it... N. |

I've just woken up, so excuse me if I'm wrong but as far as I recall a 'nucleur' bomb has never been dropped on a city.

Don't you just love the totally warped 'logic' of the terminally brainwashed? :rolleyes: |

Interestingly, and I'm not justifying this, they think the same of us when they see the hypocrisy in our societies.
See his post earlier in this thread. Attempting to justify child rape because the nuclear bombs in WW11 is one of the worst arguments I have ever seem. I know you like to oppose anything I say, but surely you cannot back up that kind of statement. You're not a liberal apologist and you know perfectly well that criticising one course of action is not the automatice defence of another. |

Correct. I am not a liberal apologist by any stretch, and I'm not trying to oppose everything you say. Further, as I said, I'm not justifying it either - but what you need to understand is that they don't see it as rape due to some weird ****ed up beliefs and that they see our actions as equally appalling too. This is why you get these nut case posters on here... I'm sure there is an ArabExpats.com somewhere where occasionally a Brit shows up and spouts something they see as normal and get blasted and called insane :)
But you and I know that they are wrong and we're right. :nod: |

It's not even worth replying - except to say without two nuclear bombs millions of Japanese and Americans would have been killed because Japan would have needed to be invaded and fully conquered (like Germany) before it would have surrendered. If you have a comment on any points I raise please do make them - but don't engage in logical fallacies. N. |

Re: Child marriage in Iran & KSA
Just a point of interest, these young girls who are allowed to marry and have children, do any of them marry young boys/men or do they all end up with 30+ guys? Are young boys allowed to marry or did Mohamed not make a decision on that?

The marriages where the men are much older is usually when more money is involved, which makes it worse............ |

You are allowed to marry when you are deemed an adult, (some phase of puberty). Girls are classed as ready at this ridiculous age and boys its 15.
