Anis Saputra, 24, and Kiki Hanafilia, 17, both married, caned under Islamic sharia law for kissing each other in Aceh province, Indonesia

They received eight lashes each in front of hundreds of people at a mosque in the city of Jantho after being caught having an extramarital kiss.

'In October, two women were caned in Aceh [one of several Indonesian provinces which have adopted sharia] for selling food during the fasting hours of Ramadan.'

Comments: Adultery is not the main issue here. What is important is that this is Islamic sharia religious punishment that is on a continuum [although probably not applied in Indonesia] to wife and child beatings, forcing women to wear the veil and not allowing them to mix with unrelated men at all or drive, as is the case in Saudi Arabia, limp amputations for theft, stoning to death for adultery, death for 'insulting' Islam (blasphemy) and apostasy (leaving Islam), and other cruel and 'barbaric' 7th century 'primordial' punishments that are also repressive and discriminates against people from other religions in many ways.

And as usual, those fake 'Human Rights' advocates, both Muslims and Liberal left elites, won't speak out (if they do, instead of covering-up, then its likely to be token) against things like these, while severely criticizing much more minor or irrelevant issues in other religions, especially Christianity, and labeling legitimate criticisms of Islam and Muslims as 'bigotry', 'hate' and 'Islamophobia' (That's their kind of 'free speech' and 'freedom of expression'. You are free to speak and express as it long as it all positive and do not mention the ugly deadly truths.)

Muslims also like to portray themselves as being more sexually pure, but this is not the case. For example, in the Koran, good Muslim men are promised food, drinks and sex with women (some dark eyed and some allegedly with large breasts) as a reward in heaven for obeying their god Allah. They are also allowed to marry up to four wives and in the case of Shiite Iran, unlimited number of 'temporary' wives. Read comments on this article for an example and a bit more information.
