In Iran, a case of eye for an eye

Here's an example of Iranian Shia, Sharia law. Islamic barbarism in the 21st century, and no hope of ever changing. This whole thing is just plain disgusting and a warning of what Islam is all about. The poor woman who was the victim has suffered unimaginable trauma and terror, but pouring acid into the eyes of her attacker is beyond Western comprehension and is another illustration of just why Islam and Western society are incompatible.

FROM METRO.US:

In Iran, a case of eye for an eye
“He is whimpering for mercy, asking me to leave him at least one eye. But it is too late for that.”

Bahrami
TEHRAN. A judge in Tehran, Iran, has officially sanctioned a blinded woman’s plea for vengeance by allowing her to blind the man who threw acid on her face five years ago. Majid Emovahedi attacked Ameneh Bahrami with sulphuric acid in September 2004 after the woman had repeatedly spurned his attempts at romance. Now Bahrami, who was blinded and grossly disfigured by the attack, will have the opportunity to repay her attacker.

“He will lie in front of me drugged,” Bahrami explained. “I will feel my way to his eyes and then drop 20 drops of acid in each eye.”

Bahrami, who has undergone 17 extensive facial surgeries in the aftermath of the attack and will never regain the use of her eyes, will stand over an anaesthetized Emovahedi as prison officials hold the man down. A doctor will be on site, holding open Emovahedi’s eyes to ensure the acid’s efficacy.
