Terrible, disturbing video of Afghanistan’s Sharia law.

A woman, tied to the ground and helpless, being stoned to death.

A month after a couple (above) accused of having an affair were also stoned to death.

Just in case there are questions, Ahmedinejad’s Iran has the following in the Islamic Penal Code of Iran:

Article 102:

The stoning of an adulterer or adulteress shall be carried out while each is
placed in a hole and covered with soil, he up to his waist and she up to a line above her breasts.

Whatever the political rhetoric, we ought daily to remember that our men and women fighting our Global War on Terror are battling an evil just as terrible and dark as our parents and grandparents did in the Second World War.

We should also remember that when American servicemen and women commit crimes on the battlefield, it is an incredibly rare aberration which carries with it trial and punishment under the law.

Our Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines put themselves at risk to keep from harming innocents. Our enemy preys on them. Women, seven-year-old boys.

General Mattis knew of what he spoke.
