The poster child for civilized countries.

Yemen -- A judge dissolved the marriage of an 8-year-old girl to a man (that her father forced her to marry).

I find this entire case quite barbaric. The judge dissolved the marriage and the 30 year old man was "awarded" $250 for repeatedly raping and beating the child. Yes you read that right. The 30 year old man was awarded $250 from the girls father because the marriage agreement was broken.

The judge did not dissolve the marriage because she was eight, or because she was beaten and raped, or because the husband was 30 and she was 8, no the marriage was dissolved because the girl had not reached puberty. If she had reached puberty at the young age of eight all would be well with the marriage and the girl would just have to suffer. AND there will be no charges filed against the 30 year old because they do not feel that he did anything wrong. He had the father's permission.

The funny thing is females are still being treated as slaves (s3X slaves) and there does not appear to be any outrage from within these countries. This is fine with them.

Yet here in the US the black man thinks he has the corner on slavery. The reason for all his trouble is because their great great great grandfather was a slave. When in fact the black woman is the one that has reason to be angry. They are the ones that have been mistreated (still today) by EVERYONE.

Anyway I digress, this is one very strong little girl and will probably not see her next birthday. She will be viewed as a threat to the Yemen men and they will have to punish her for stepping out of line and standing up for herself.
