Saudi Justice

Reuters: "A Saudi court of cassation upheld a ruling to behead and crucify a 22-year-old man convicted of raping five children and leaving one of them to die in the desert, newspapers reported on Tuesday.

The convict was arrested earlier this year after a seven-year old boy helped police in their investigation. The child left in the desert after the rape was three years old, Okaz newspaper said
."


I agree with this decision, and I can't understand the international humanitarian outcry over this decision.
The man raped 5 kids and killed 1. He can be crucified and then beheaded for all I care.

Wait wait wait...

Was he beheaded *before* he was crucified? If so, then that just seems pointless.

Ya. They just do the crucifixion to publically display the body for a few days, with the blood soaked cross left up as a reminder for a while longer.

I think we should send the Saudis an electric chair if we're not going to use them.
