Fallujah adopts Taliban theocracy
From World Net Daily
The comparison to Afghanistan under the Taliban is not coincidental.
Many of the clerics who have taken over Fallujah either studied in Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia or were urged to adopt the Taliban example.
As a result, women must cover their hair and faces. If they don't, they are beaten in the streets. Naturally, beauty parlors have been shut down.
Men have been ordered to grow beards and barbers have been warned not to shave customers. Indeed, the barbers have been given strict guidelines on what kinds of haircuts are permissible.
Those selling or imbibing alcohol are now flirting with death. Already, several dealers have been flogged naked in the streets of Fallujah in full view of passersby. A man found drunk in Fallujah was also beaten to a pulp.
Does the saying "be careful what you wish for" come to mind?
Maybe this is a good thing in a perverse sort of way. After a few months of this Falluja might rejoice at the coalitions return.
And how does this differ from Abu Grahib prison? At least those in prison were suppose to be bad guys.
