Saudi girl gets 90 lashes for having cell phone

Do our “friends” the Saudis hate little girls? It would appear so after looking at their doling out punishment for various crimes.

The country whose “police” kept 15 school girls from escaping a burning building – they burned alive because they were not wearing proper Islamic dress as they attempted to flee – now has sentenced a school girl to 90 lashes for bringing a cell phone to school.

The 13 year-old will also spend two months in jail.

Just three years ago, 16 school girls were sentenced to between 200 and 500 lashes for “being aggressive to a teacher.”

But in September, 20 Saudi miscreants received only 30 lashes for ransacking shops and restaurants.

30 lashes for criminal activity and 500 for being aggressive towards a teacher?
