Every man woman and child on this planet belongs to the human race.
We are all from different backgrounds and countries, we all follow different religions and are from very diverse cultures but in the end we all have a heart, a brain and reside on the top of the food chain.
So how can the following be allowed to happen....
Thousands of people gathered to witness 50 Somali men stone a woman to death after an Islamic court in the southern port of Kismayo found her guilty of adultery, witnesses say. Aisho Ibrahim Dhuhulow, who had been found guilty of extra-marital intercourse was buried in the ground up to her neck while the men pelted her head with rocks today, they said.
"Our sister Aisho asked the Islamic Sharia court in Kismayo to be charged and punished for the crime she committed," local Islamist leader Sheikh Hayakallah told the crowd. "She admitted in front of the court to engaging in adulterous sexual intercourse," he added. "She was asked several times to review her confession but she stressed that she wanted Sharia law and the deserved punishment to apply."
The execution was carried out in one of the city's main squares.
The port of Kismayo was seized in August by a coalition of forces loyal to rebel leader Hassan Turki, and the Shebab, the country's main radical Islamist insurgent organisation. Turki is listed as a terrorist financier by Washington.
The new administration formed there began implementing a strict form of Sharia (Islamic law). "This afternoon we are telling the people of Kismayo that we are practising a punishment that is rare in this region and was carried out in Kismayo for the first time," Sheikh Hayakallah said.
Cameras were banned from the public stoning but print and radio journalists were allowed to attend.

OK She she committed adultery and said that she deserved and wanted the punishment...and..sure the punishment is rare but to think that this punishment fits the crime in Islamic Law is a fucking joke.
Do they live in caves in Kismayo, carry stone axes, hunt for food and grunt as a language?
To bury a woman up to her neck and pelt rocks at her head till she is dead is disgusting,. Even as a supporter of Capital punishment i find this abhorrent.
Islamic Law huh?
I think you have raised the bar a lil high there guys...if that's what you do to someone that has committed adultery what do you do to the child murdering Kiddy fiddlers? ...you've left yourself no where to go...
Sometimes i just sit down and just ask myself how did some of the human race actually evolve without any humanity?
Then again sometimes i just resign to the fact that some of the people just aren't human.
I guess we are talking about Somalia.
Sad really.
