Iran Focus-News is reporting that an Iranian court has sentenced a teenage rape victim to death by hanging after she weepingly confessed that she had unintentionally killed a man who had tried to rape both her and her niece.

This is getting old real fast. A girl only identified by her first name, Nazanin, is now scheduled to be hanged for stabbing an attempted rapist to death. Under the law of the religion of peace, being raped is punishable by stoning.  This poor girl was forced in an instant to choose death by stoning or death by hanging.  I don’t understand how the Iranian legal system works, but I would greatly appreciate any Iranian bloggers out there who would take photographs and pass out the names of the judges/jurors who issue rulings of this nature.  Where are the femminists on this issue?  Surely I’m not the only one who believes that the judge needs to spend 20 years in the Hanoi Hilton.
