http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/4967108.stm Would/could you ask a 16-year-old to execute someone? On a lighter note... What if Sharia law was implemented in Ireland? All our politicians would lose their hands.

Well the Somali news service from which the BBC got its story says that the executioner was 38 years old. Mind you just about every western news service that Google throws up says he was 16. Wonder what caused that misinterpretation.

Which is not to say that this excuses the barbarity of the Sharia court. The way these savages adopt an 'eye for an eye' approach to justice. Why, they are no better than Americans.
