Facebook girl beaten and shot dead by her father for talking online:
I’m not sure how true this story is because everyone involved is ‘unnamed’ but I wouldn’t put it past the Saudis.

Anyway a Saudi news agency is reporting that a father brutally beat and shot his daughter to death for using Facebook to talk to a man. No ages were given of anybody involved in this story. Personally I think the story is false and is being used as a type of propaganda to keep Saudi women even more repressed than they already are.

However the article does give a good insight to the plight of Saudi women.

Yes I agree as SA woman are stoned to death on Judgment Day for adultery but the male participant goes unpunished. But this propaganda is NOT from SA. Its either coming from America or Israel. Remember how the right-wing extremist Neocono-facists started the agitprop machinery over Iran (The little raped Iranian girl?) Well 911 was committed by 19 SA men and 1 ring leader from SA (UBL?) Does this mean USA is about to invade SA? About time! How many more images of George Bush and the SA prince kissing and holding hands can we tolerate.

This story is fake. Just more anti-Muslim rhetoric. SA would have to execute this man by decap. on Judgment Day as it is Sunni Law for murder. Even of a woman. India is the country that is extremely misogynistic not SA – per se. SA only requires that faces be covered and that women be chaste.

HI. My name is morgan. i was a very good friend of Michael's. What you have on your website is FALSE!!! i have talked to michael and his parents both on what has occured. He was arrested for being with the 12 year old girl. She lied to michael saying she was 17 and made him pick her up and take her home. She ran away from home and to keep herself from getting in trouble she made up a lie. Michael is no longer in jail and he never at any point had sex with the girl.
