What the heck, the point is whether or now she had an affair, the point is the archaic & barbaric law of the Saudi's. Not whether the woman went out of marriage.
The husband could have had more than one wifes to satisfy his carnal desires; this is not illegal. But why this discrimination against a woman ?
BECAUSE THE KORAN IS BEING INTERPRETED TO BE SAYING SO???
Get over it, the Law Ministry of Saudi. You should realize that you are not living in the desert kingdom of the middle east in the time period of 7th century AD.
This is the modern world, moralities have changed. This is the age of individual liberties & not a world run by archaic illogical and discriminatory customs.
If your rich can do whatever they want in the confines of the plush gated communities; The ladies of your royal family can take charter flights to Miami and sun bathe in a bikini….this tells that your laws are ending up as only instruments of oppression to the common man. When your royals, who are supposedly and MORALLY to be the upholders of the law aren’t in to follow it...in other terms...your socialites have no true regard for your (Saudi)law in practice or spirit, why are you trying to rub it on to people?
"A law should follow the path of present day realities"; Law that doesn’t meet the realities of life is nothing but a sham against civil society.

"Brand Nahi to Style Nahi"... Get a Life... VP of Mktg @ Zeiss
"Brand Nahi to Style Naahi"
So, the Indian society has hit another shallow low in trying to prepare hoards of 'Brand Bitches' eh ?
I have not had the Idiot box for the last few months since I moved into my new place, Marconi's invention which the Indians have adopted in a style that is mind numbing has kept me connected well enough with the circus called society around me.
Today on the evening of Diwali re-brushing on my lost skill of annoying the Idiot box to change its mind every few seconds, I came across an Ad from Ziess Opticals which can be called "Brand Nahi to Style Naahi". MAN WAS I ALL PUMPED UP IN A FIT OF RAGE AND DISAPPOINTMENT.
It comes to me as i put in more thought that the executives @ Zeiss who are paid all these fat corporate pay checks couldn't come up with anything more exciting and responsible than this super shallow Ad setting an even more pseudo standard that "no brand aint any style at all". And the Zeiss super bosses possibly with an overwhelming zeal to meet their sales targets, letting go of the last morsel of any respect or concern for the society at large approved this ad and the marketing agency who publicized this ad, again gave into the agenda.
Are we as citizens of this nation, so gracious & glorious, so apathetic and hopeless that the average by stander is so ignorant of facts of the actions or results that shape us and our psyche in bringing up and nurturing a coherent society.
I have already called the Zeiss offices and tried talking to their Mktg ppl with not much of an exciting response...Have also looked up the ACSI (Advertising Standards Council of India) website and the procedure to launch a concern in a formal manner.
Would request you netizes and citizens to please do your part in helping me help sensitize our society.

Indian youth are simply unemployable: Report (Click link 4 Article)
This comes as no wonder I guess, If the students are judged by one exam at the end of the year, and only in the subject that they are studying and no other courses to make them well rounded, the resultant output would be what the article has to say.
When fully grown students who are eligible for universal suffrage are disciplined 'like or worse' than kindergartens and not let to live up to their responsibilities I dont see why this article should come to us as a surprise.
