Kuwaiti wacko ensures third term for Vladimir Putin

Allow me to clear it up for you.
Salwa al-Mutairi, a former candidate for Kuwait’s Parliament (she lost, scoring less than one-fifth of one percent of the vote) mused about how Muslim men can be spared fom commiting adulterly by taking captured infidel women as sex-slaves (Al Arabiya via Middle Eastern Forum).
A Muslim state must [first] attack a Christian state—sorry, I mean any non-Muslim state—and they [the women, the future sex-slaves] must be captives of the raid. Is this forbidden? Not at all; according to Islam, sex slaves are not at all forbidden. Quite the contrary, the rules regulating sex-slaves differ from those for free women [i.e., Muslim women] . . .
Now, before we all get carried away, keep in mind that (1) 99.8% of Kuwaitis in District 4 rejected her candidacy and (2) even the boss of the anglophone division of Al Arabiya thought this was nuts.
There was, however, one line of hers that could have a dramatic impact half-a-world away:
In the Chechnyan war, surely there are female Russian captives. So go and buy those and sell them here in Kuwait; better that than have our men engage in forbidden sexual relations.
I suspect that statement will easily reach Moscow before March’s presidential elections . . . meaning Prime Minister Vladimir Putin’s campaign for a third term is practically a done deal.

Actually, her statement isn’t that far off if you know the history of the Ottoman harims. First, the harim girls were required to be non-Muslims. Second, they were slaves. Third, sharia prohibits a master from marrying one of his slaves. Therefore, that’s what went on with the harims: Muslim men had non-Muslim women as sex slaves.
Putin hardly needs the help of rhapsodic Kuwaitis what with the Secret Police and the gangsters.
Does it even matter who wins that election? Putin would be in charge anyway. As Val said, Russia is an example of what government would look like if the Mafia ran the FBI. That’s a hard combination to beat in a power struggle.
