Radical Islamists Create List of Unwed Women


Panic is rising over the list of unwed women that radical Islamists in Northern Mali have created. The list brings about fear that these women will be severely and inhumanely punished. These radical Islamists have been known to conduct public executions, amputations, and other extremely torturous punishments. In July, these extremists put a man and woman who committed adultery in a hole and stoned them to death while other residents watched. I think this list is definitely a cause for concern, especially since women and children are the most targeted in this country. A close eye should be kept on these radicals to ensure that the unwed women on the list go unharmed. If other countries let this issue go undetected, a lot of people could die, so they definitely need to step up and take control of the situation before it gets any worse than it already is.
