Sharq newspaper reports that Saudi authorities are to execute a murderer then crucify his dead body. This is apparently the second such crucifixion ordered by the Hail court. Nice. Forgiving.

Hat tip: Sultan

Update:

I’ve just stumbled upon an article on recent discussions in the Shura council on how to maintain a sense of morality in the face of modern mass-media.

Morality (from the Latin moralitas “manner, character, proper behavior”) is a system of conduct and ethics that is virtuous.

What an absurd country.

So civilized of them to crucify people only after they’ve died. I had no idea the Saudis used crucifixion. Is it common?
