> A group of people that will cut off a thief's hands, condone the murder of family members for adultery, etc...
Also, I'd have to say that if you could respond with some facts about america that are equally disturbing. America, a country glued to the television set, obsessed with buying things they don't need and bombing/invading foreign countries a least twice every decade (while engaged in numerous conflicts around the globe). The american idea of justice is executing people in the electric chair or dispatching them via a 'gas chamber', or the so called 'humane' method of killing - the lethal injection. A country built on slavery which still mantains a powerful racist undercurrent in its cultural make up. Major racial disparity in the US results in the incarceration of African American men at a rate 4 times those incarcerated by the former aparteid nation of South Africa. Do you want me to go on?
