She obviously is getting what she has coming to her under Islamic law -- after all, she did accept an unaccompanied ride from a man who was not her relative.

Saudi judge has ordered a woman should be jailed for a year and receive 100 lashes after she was gang-raped, it was claimed last night.

The 23-year-old woman, who became pregnant after her ordeal, was reportedly assaulted after accepting a lift from a man.

He took her to a house to the east of the city of Jeddah where she was attacked by him and four of his friends throughout the night.

She later discovered she was pregnant and made a desperate attempt to get an abortion at the King Fahd Hospital for Armed Forces.

According to the Saudi Gazette, she eventually 'confessed' to having 'forced intercourse' with her attackers and was brought before a judge at the District Court in Jeddah.

He ruled she had committed adultery - despite not even being married - and handed down a year's prison sentence, which she will serve in a prison just outside the city.

She is still pregnant and will be flogged once she has had the child.

But let me remind you that we here in the West should not make any negative judgment about nations or religions that countenance such barbaric practices -- that would be hateful, ethnocentric, and imperialistic. After all, Islam had something worthwhile to offer the world a millennium ago, so who are we to judge it simply because it remains mired in that time period? WRONG! Civilized people must speak out as one against such things.

I'm curious -- where are the cries of outrage from the feminists of the world? What does Barack Obama think about this disgusting action, and will he have Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton voice our nation's revulsion at treating the victims of crime as criminals.
