Islam Means Misogyny: Divorce by Text Message
From the Fark article: I dvrc thee, i dvrc thee, i dvrc thee. lol kthxbye
From Reuters here:
A Saudi man has divorced his wife by text message. The man was in Iraq when he sent the SMS informing her she was no longer his spouse. He followed up with a telephone call to two of his relatives.
A court in the Red Sea city of Jeddah finalised the split — the first known divorce in Saudi Arabia by text message — after summoning the two relatives to check they had received word of the husband’s intention, the paper said. Under sharia law a man can divorce his wife by saying “I divorce you” three times.
The Saudi man was in Iraq to participate in jihad according to the Arab News. Many Saudis have gone to fight with al Qaeda militants against the Iraqi government and U.S. forces.
Way to render a woman instantly homeless. And I thought the war in Iraq was over according to Obama who is stepping up troop strength in Afghanistan.
What happens if a Muslim jihadist clicks his heels together three times? Does the wizard give him a sense of respect for others, a desire to join the modern world, or perhaps a clean nightshirt?
