Saudi Arabia has lashed a liberal blogger 50 times in public, despite widespread international outrage and calls for clemency from human right groups.

Hillel Neuer, Executive Director of UN Watch, said on twitter that blogger and activist, Raif Badawi, was lashed outside a mosque in the Red Sea coastal city of Jeddah on Friday.

Badawi is due to undergo 50 lashes every week after Friday prayers, which will continue for 20 weeks until his punishment is complete.

Amnesty International says Badawi, who started the “Free Saudi Liberals” website, was sentenced to 10 years in prison and 1,000 lashes on charges related to accusations he insulted Islam on the online forum.

He was also ordered by Jeddah’s Criminal Court to pay a fine of $266,000.

“It is horrifying to think that such a vicious and cruel punishment should be imposed on someone who is guilty of nothing more than daring to create a public forum for discussion and peacefully exercising the right to freedom of expression,” Philip Luther, Amnesty’s Middle East and North Africa Director, said.

“Saudi Arabian authorities must immediately halt all plans to carry out this brutal sentence,” he said.

The United States had also appealed to Saudi Arabia to cancel the sentence.

State Department spokeswoman, Jen Psaki, said the US was “greatly concerned.” She called the 1,000 lashes an “inhumane” response to someone exercising his right to freedom of expression and religion.

“The United States government calls on Saudi authorities to cancel this brutal punishment and to review Badawi’s case and sentence,” Psaki said.

Around 14,000 people have signed an online petition calling on Saudi’s King Abdullah to pardon Badawi.

Rights groups and activists say his case is part of a wider clampdown on dissent throughout the kingdom.

Lol. Obviously, he will have to blog while standing up now.

50 lashes for 20 weeks after Friday prayers! Is that to amaze god or goddess? So the Saudi government supports moral and mental slavery by denying fundamental human rights. In this century, such practice should have been outdated and rejected. That's how injustice that results in violent behaviors starts

What is wrong with you??

This ^^^ right here is despicable.Someone will be imprisoned for a decade,flogged 50 lashes for the next 20 weeks,just for blogging,for freedom of expression,and you type "Lol."
If you,as a muslim,have no problem with this,then you're part of the ideological problem were facing today.

And so what?

If an Israelite, or a stranger, had blasphemed the name of the Most High God, he would be put to death. In fact there is an example:

Leviticus 24:11-14
11 And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the name of the Lord, and cursed. And they brought him unto Moses: (and his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan
12 And they put him in ward, that the mind of the Lord might be shewed them.
13 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
14 Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him.

It is a good thing the Most High has hidden his true name from us. You people saying "oh my god", had you been able to insert the true name, you would have been 6ft under by now.

Christians are not living in the past. Their faith is anchored in Christ's saving grace, and they are people truly redeemed to God. Therefore all these you have stated are practiced by people who are not in Christ. All the treatment or judgment quoted is inhumane, don't you know that Christ has replaced it since... more than 2000 years back. That's reason you must come out of darkness into the light. Get yourself a copy of new testament, read and digest the gospel you will discover God's will to love, care for others and treat them as you want to be treated

Many are imprisoned for decades. Thousands are tortured and are being tortured daily, for the same 'freedom of expression' in christian countries. But because those imprisonments were not for abusers of Islam, and those that imprison them were not Muslim Saudis, you are ok with it.
Let me tell you. This western wannabe who learnt how to read and write with Saudi wealth is now trying to destroy the basis on which that which he enjoyed, is built. When we were kids, we watched our mouths or we were flogged. Nobody campaigned for freedom of expression to abuse our elders. There is nothing heartless and cold about my statement. You are concerned with the guilty man's backside. I am concerned with the suffering that will result in a society of anarchy where everyone abuses anyone and anything he likes.

By the way, I did not say that is how we should take action today. The reason we need not take action is that Yahshua (Jesus) died for the sins of Israel, therefore we shall no more receive the curse of the law i.e. the punishment of sin, which is death.

But, your narrative of human rights and all that rubbish doesn't sit with me, I have the mind of my father.
Those he preach these 'sweet words' are undercover devils. We know things shall only deteriorate in these gentile times. Tell me, in the 'age' of human rights and betterment of life, which nation (race) of people rules this world? Which nation of people benefits from the poverty of other nations. Which nation of people sends organisations like the World Health Organisation and British Red Cross into poor countries to inflict viruses such as ebola and aids (oh, so you think ebola was just by chance, open your eyes).

The Most High has seen the sins of our enemies, and he shall punish them more severely than you read above. Get ready, the time is at hand.

That it is unjust is your opinion. My equally strong opinion is that it is just. Islam subordinates the wellbeing of an individual, especially one involved in a deliberate act of sedition, to the well being of society. His punishment has to do with prevention of recurrence by him and by others who may try to copy him, not for the purpose of causing pain. The man spread sedition publicly, period. He knew what he was getting into, when he resorted to blogging rather than confronting the relevant authority with his grievances. An example has to be made of him to prevent more treasonous behaviour. A legally established government has used its legal system to sentence him. If your issue is with flogging, then I would like to inform you that it is much preferable to being imprisoned in State facilities where you are sodomized by perverted cell mates, as obtains in bastions of "human rights" like the US.

Islam and fascism are the same thing.

Blah blah. Living in the past? Christ was the sacrificial lamb, to redeem Israel from their sins. THAT is why we need not stone blasphemers to death. However, it remains a sin, and the Most High shall punish those who are guilty, believe that brother. But you talking about modern living, woah unto you:

Jeremiah 18:15 Because my people hath forgotten me, they have burned incense to vanity, and they have caused them to stumble in their ways from the ancient paths, to walk in paths, in a way not cast up;

Jeremiah 6:16 Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.

Therefore all these you have stated are practiced by people who are not in Christ. All the treatment or judgment quoted is inhumane, don't you know that Christ has replaced it since... more than 2000 years back.

Woah unto you. You have opened your mouth to say the statues of the Most High God, the God of thy fathers, thy ancestors, is "inhumane". It is simple, he that killeth with the sword, shall be killed by the sword. He that leads into captivity shall go into captivity. So get ready, the nations that mistreated and enslaved our people shall be held captive by us. Do you have the stomach, or are you a woman? Read Isaiah 45

That's reason you must come out of darkness into the light. Get yourself a copy of new testament, read and digest the gospel you will discover God's will to love, care for others and treat them as you want to be treated

Be quiet there. The Word that was from the beginning, the Word of God, is the instruction of God, which is the Torah of God. The Law. When Christ mentioned the scriptures, he could only have been talking about the law and the prophets. He is the Living Word.
You understand not the new testament books you carry. How can you, when you do not have the ancient scriptures. Carrying around letters of Paul and misinterpreting.

What is light, according to the bible? What is love according to the bible, how do we know whether we truly love the Most High God?

This is nothing more than Conservative Fascism......
Because some countries/governments exploit weaker entities,and you believe we are headed to some terrible age of moral decadence,shortly followed by an "apocalypse" doesn't mean we should reject human rights.Everyone has their dignity,and what's wrong will forever be wrong.
And if I may ask,are you a mind reader?How do you know if I believe Ebola was created(or not)?

You do not know what you are saying. You are merely parroting what you read in the hate propaganda news. None of the points you raised above is tenable, but I have no intention to respond to your Gish Gallop techniques. Each specific case merits its own rulings. If you explain each of the cases which you refer to above in such haphazard manner, as it occurred with evidence, then I will be happy to provide you with the backing behind its sentence under Saudi law.

Society as I meant it, refers to the individuals living within a defined geographical location. All society structures must have a system of legislation that ensures the harmony of the whole. If one dissident decides to disturb that harmony, the society is obliged to ensure that harmony is restored, notwithstanding the degree of discomfort this will cause to the individual dissident. If every rebellious individual was allowed to corrupt the mind of the impressionable, anarchy would reign supreme and every person would follow his own rules.

Freedom of an individual should end when it infringes upon the right of another. Ask Libyans, Syrians and Iraqis what freedom has given them.

Incredibly, you state "what is wrong is wrong". That is total fallacy. What is wrong is what the governing members of society deem is wrong. Your belief that flogging is wrong arises from exposure to foreign influences and your background. It csnnot be proven to be inherently wrong. These ethical issues have centuries of deep philosophy behind them and are not dismissed with the kind of banal phrase that you used to drive home a personal opinion.
