Somali girl 'pleaded for mercy' before Islamists stoned her to death for being raped
Here is a follow up on the 13 year old Somali rape victim who was stoned to death by fellow muslims. This is the unvarnished, pure islam that underlies all the oily smiles and false posturing by more "advanced" muslims such as the Saudis and the Muslim Brotherhood's evil offshoot, CAIR. This is what islam will impose upon us all if allowed to dominate the West.
Note that this took place before the typical islamic mob. Ah yes, there's nothing more entertaining than the gang murder of innocence.
Somehow, the defense of this vile murder was that the girl was actually 23 years old rather than 13. That's analogous to permitting the rape of nine year olds because mohammed did it.
Notice also the casual mention of a boy being shot "in the confusion". This whole episode is the epitome of third world islamic barbarity.

Somali girl 'pleaded for mercy' before Islamists stoned her to death for being raped

A girl barely in her teens begged to be allowed to live moments before a mob in Somalia buried her up to her shoulders in the ground and stoned her to death, a witness claimed today.
The desperate youngster is said to have pleaded : "Don't kill me, don't kill me" minutes before she died an horrific and brutal death infront of a 1,000 strong crowd.
Amid the confusion of the stoning inside a football stadium in the rebel-held port of Kismayu, a boy is reported to have been shot dead.

Amnesty International said today that the girl was just 13 and had been the victim of rape by up to three men - and not, as previously reported, a 23-year-old who had confessed to adultery before an Islamic court.
The stoning on October 28 took place after local leaders said she was guilty of adultery under Sharia law.
It is the first public killing in war ravaged Somalia for two years and will once again focus the spotlight on hardline Sharia law. Convicting a girl of 13 for adultery would be illegal under Islamic law but the authorities said she had lied about her age.
Cameras were banned from the public stoning, but print and radio journalists who were allowed to attend estimated that the woman was 23 years old.
Both Amnesty and the UN children's agency UNICEF said that the girl, identified as Aisha Ibrahim Duhulow, had been raped by three men while travelling on foot to visit her grandmother in the capital Mogadishu.
According to reports, her family attempted to report the rape to the al-Shabab militia who control Kismayu, she was accused of adultery and was detained. None of the men she accused of rape was arrested.
"This was not justice, nor was it an execution. This child suffered an horrendous death at the behest of the armed opposition groups who currently control Kismayu," David Copeman, Amnesty's Somalia campaigner, said in a statement.
"This killing is yet another human rights abuse committed by the combatants ... in Somalia, and again demonstrates the importance of international action to investigate and document such abuses, through an International Commission of Inquiry," he said.
Amnesty said nurses were sent to check during the stoning whether the victim was still alive. They removed her from the ground and declared that she was, but she was replaced so the stoning could continue.
UNICEF appeared to confirm the version of events, saying : "Following the assault, she sought protection from the authorities, who then accused her of adultery and sentenced her to death.
"A child was victimized twice -- first by the perpetrators of the rape and then by those responsible for administering justice."
UNICEF said the incident highlighted the vulnerability of girls and women in Somalia, which has suffered civil conflict for the last 17 years. In the latest cycle, Islamist rebels are fighting the government and their Ethiopian military backers.
A witness told the BBC the woman had begged for her life and had been crying as she was forced into the hole in the ground.
He said the girl had asked the Islamic administration in Kismayo : 'What do you want from me?'"
They had replied : 'We will do what Allah has instructed us'. (emphasis mine ed.)
She said: 'I'm not going, I'm not going. Don't kill me, don't kill me.'
The witness continued : "A few minutes later more than 50 men tried to stone her."
He said people crowding round to see the execution said it was "awful".
"People were saying this was not good for Sharia law, this was not good for human rights, this was not good for anything."
But no-one tried to stop the Islamist officials, who were armed, the witness said. He said one boy was shot in the confusion.
Court authorities told a different story. They claimed the woman came to them admitting her guilt. She was asked several times to review her confession but she stressed that she wanted Sharia law and the deserved punishment to apply, they said.
The port of Kismayo was seized in August by a coalition of forces loyal to rebel leader Hassan Turki, and al-Shabab, the country's main radical Islamist insurgent organisation. Mr Turki is on the US list of "financers of terrorism".
