Quote :
"TEHRAN - Ameneh Bahrami once enjoyed photography and mountain vistas. Her work for a medical equipment company gave her financial independence. Several men had asked for her hand in marriage, but the hazel-eyed electrical technician had refused them all. "I wanted to get married, but only to the man I really loved," she said.

Four years ago, a spurned suitor poured a bucket of sulfuric acid over her head, leaving her blind and disfigured.

Late last month, an Iranian court ordered that five drops of the same chemical be placed in each of her attacker's eyes, acceding to Bahrami's demand that he be punished according to a principle in Islamic jurisprudence that allows a victim to seek retribution for a crime. The sentence has not yet been carried out."

Did you read the article at all? She was doing perfectly fine as a successful muslim woman, with the general admiration of her community. Even after she had acid thrown on her face, she got tons of support.

The interesting thing implied in the article though is that the crazy right-wing religious government has been GAINING power recently, as well as shifting society that way, which is a direct result of how we have conducted the war in Iraq. Our policies set the table for people like Ahmedinijad to gain more power.

^ Does that include pouring acid on someone for not marrying you?

i've always been an advocate for the old "kill a murderer the same way they killed their victim" policy

i think if someone tortures someone or skins them alive they should not be given a little shot to stop their heart.

This quote, in no way, accurately describes capital punishment.

i think there is always a time for mercy, and not following the ideas of an eye for an eye. however, i don't necessarily know if this is one of those cases. he poured a bucket of sulfuric acid on her. this isn't exactly someone that i think a few years in prison will get the point across.

i don't know if this is the right response, but i can see the argument being made.

Amazing -- the guy that threw the acid obviously has mental problems.

"I love this woman. She won't marry me. I'll attempt to kill her."

Have acid attacks been a problem for awhile, or is this a new phenomenon?

you pegged it. this is obviously the act of someone that's mentally disturbed.

....and in modern day society, mentally ill people should be punished differently from offenders that aren't mentally ill.

If you read the article, it's quite apparent the perp was some kind of crazy stalker.


I do find it admirable that even though his father doesn't want the acid put in his son's eyes, he agrees that if the court decides it, then it must happen.

Acid attacks have been a big problem for a long time in that area of the world, specifically India and the Middle East. One of the tidbits I learned in my anthropology class.
