Sudanese Conviction

More from the “religion of peace:” A 16-year-old Sudanese girl was convicted by Islamic authorities of “offending public morality.” Her “crime?” Wearing an “indecent” skirt. Her punishment? 50 lashes. (NYT, 11/28/09)

Significant article to appear in Monday’s edition (I think) of the Yale Daily News (Yale’s student newspaper).
