KABUL, Nov. 4 (Xinhua)-- Taliban militants have stoned to dead a woman on charge of eloping and adultery in the western Ghor province, a local television channel aired Tuesday.

Footage of the stoning which broadcast by Tolo here indicates that scores of turbaned and bearded men brutally throwing stones at the powerless woman in an isolated area till her death.

However, the television didn't reveal the exact date of the gruesome incident.

Taliban militants who had stoned to death women for adultery and amputated the hands and feet of people on charge of robbery during their reign in Afghanistan toppled in late 2001, have yet to make comment.

Look out Germany coming your way soon due to the mad woman of Germany Frau Merkel and her comments and orders.

Perhaps she should tread carefully those old fashioned Mullahs intensely dislike women with power..

Too often what happens is a Taliban guy rapes a woman, then accuses her of adultery (or pre-marital sex) then they execute her while her rapist goes free. Sadly, it is a far more common event than you'd like to believe. Essentially they are pretty much nothing but lawless criminals using religion to justify (or exonerate) their crimes.

I bet the male adulterer is alive and well.

This is "Muslim" business.

The West should stay away and not comment on the "enlightened" practices of those who live in the dark ages .....................

State sanctioned murder of citizens for ANY excuse is backward and barbaric.

[samuibeachcomber]

A backward religion for a backward people.religion loves uneducated ignorant people,in fact they thrive on it.Islam is a typical example.

Is there anything that anyone could say here that could justify such animal behaviour ?

[OMGImInPattaya]

This too seems a bit harsh...it's hard to know which is worse, the Indian guy who gets life in prison for raping a woman or the woman who is stoned for adultery...both punishments seem inordinate to the crimes committed.

there is a world wide hatred towards women and it has to stop...........unfortunately it seems that "respect" has to be a subject brought in to everyone's education system.And that old but wise saying "love thy neighbour as thyself."

At least her husband didn't lose his house, kids and pension.

Which is HIS usual punishment for HER adultery in the UK.

One society punishes the men excessively, another society punishes the woman excessively.

Hard to justify the behavior of either.

How about i send some disgusting, disease-riddled pig over to your house for a little undesired forcible sodomy. Wonder if you will appreciate the unpleasantness of being raped after you get a taste of it yourself. Sorry, but any intentional act that has the potential of ruining someone's life physically or emotionally should be dealt with in kind. Murder is not the only way to destroy lives.

Adultery is consensual sex. Rape is an emotionally and physically scarring physical attack that many never recover from.

"Can't we all just get along?" NO...we can not! Animals like these would love to dictate your future...let you have a few stones and chopped off limbs...

Death become them...the sooner the better...

You've only insulted animals with this statement...

It isnt animal behaviour. Animals kill for food or protection only

UM...WHAT?!? A bit harsh?!? A bit??? Stoned to death for adultery! And it's not at all difficult to know which is worse. Are you serious, Mr. Misogynist?!? A girl getting stoned to death for pre-marital sex is much worse! And rape deserves a harsh punishment. Geez!

Doesn't happen that much mate.

Only when they're taking a break from young boys.

No doubt a few of the usual apologists will be along shortly to try.

Thats cruel dont drop the Stones drop the Beatles, or even Rick Ashley that would kill them ,

[Doc46]

And the USA still uses capitol punishment, executing it's own citizens.

It also has more of it's citizens in prisons than any other developed country in the world, most for victimless crimes.

Prison for profit corporations in the USA are doing very well as a result.

Compared to this stoning a woman for adultery is small potatoes.

Get Real,,What Planet you have escaped from?
