An Islamic Diploma


From the Daily Mail:

A jealous husband is facing life in prison after chopping off his wife's fingers because she began studying for a degree without his permission.

Rafiqul Islam, 30, blindfolded his wife Hawa Akhter, and taped her mouth, telling her he was going to give her a surprise present.

Instead he made her hold out her hand and cut off all five fingers. One of his relatives then threw Ms Akhter's fingers in the dustbin to ensure doctors could not reattach them.
This occurred in the Islamic Paradise of Bangladesh.

Sure, let's keep the immigration gates wide open for these people.

At least there they're prosecuting the husband. They wouldn't in Iran.

Be fair. Christians are always doing the same thing.

Until wives start amputating a certain other appendage by surprise, and flushing it down the toilet, or feeding it to the hogs, that sort of thing will continue.

I can't say they went about it the right way, but considering how feminizing college is, I can't say I can completely blame them in their efforts. Hate me all you want. As I look around a culturally and civilly ruined league of modernized nations, I can't help but think something has to be done. Obviously, the government is all for "progress". That leaves only us to deal with it, as individuals, and mostly only the men. Women love progress too.

If you knew a couple of decades ago what giving an inch would have produced, how sure are you that you would not have been a great deal more... uncivil about the whole affair? I know my grandfather, and his friends, the Lord bless their souls in repose, would have started a new civil war if they realized today would have been the reality of what was going on in his time.

Odie - not blaming the government, as you said, they'll put this idiot away for a long time. It's the attitude of her husband and the culture that cultivated it.

Nickie - my wife just bought a pair of up-armored Kevlar™ mittens. I think she suspects something.

Gorges - well, yes, hogs need protein also.

Doom - very true, but your grandfather, mine also, would never have cut off your grandmother's fingers no matter what she did. Our grandfathers would have attacked the causes of this moral corruption: they would have castrated actors, movie producers/directors, college professors and congressmen.
