#1 If Sibat couldn't predict that, he wasn't a very good sorcerer. On the other hand, if he wasn't a sorcerer, perhaps he shouldn't be executed. A paradox, a paradox, a most ingeneous paradox.

#3 If sorcery warrants beheading in Saudi Arabia, there ought to be a lot of headless people there. They have been practicing sorcery against the West for years.

#4 this is not the first person charged and convicted of sorcery in Soddiland.

However, it is the first person charged and convicted despite no allegations that he did anything wrong while in Saudi Arabia. That is, he is to be executed in Saudi Arabia for something he legally did in Lebanon. I doubt whether the Soodis will actually execute him. They will probably show him 'mercy' by giving him lashes and sending him back to Lebanon.

So Sharia law extends across borders? By Saudi reasoning Sharia law could punish someone who violated Sharia law but did so in the U.S. I have a problem with that thinking. One cannot allow Sharia law to creep into the established law of the land.

At least Mr. Sibat is in the same country as that legendary surgeon... ;-)

#9 "So Sharia law extends across borders?"

Hell, John - didn't you know? According to those clowns, it extends around the world.
