[Elder of Ziyon] Video: Islamists in Syria publicly lash two men for marriage too soon after girl's divorce

The Syrian opposition publicly flogged two men in a town in northern Syria this week, according to reports.

Their crime?

In Islamic law, a woman is divorced before she can be remarried (so that there is no doubt as to the parentage of any children she has - this was taken from Jewish law but claimed by Muslims to be one of their innovations.)

A father in Syria married his daughter to a young man before the three months were complete.

So the Islamists who control the town gave both the father and the groom a public flogging, apparently with electrical wire, after reading their verdict.
