'Child killers' led to public square, forced to lie on rugs and shot dead by executioner with an AK-47 in front of grinning Iranian-backed rebels in Yemen
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Three Yemenis were dragged to a public square in rebel-held capital Sana'a and executed in front of crowd

  • Ali al-Naami, 40, was convicted of drowning his three daughters, seven, 12 and 14, in a water tank

  • Two other prisoners, Abdullah Al-Makhali and Mohammed Arman were also executed for child murder

  • Yemen has been embroiled in a civil war since 2014, when Iran-backed Houthis swept across much of the north and seized the capital

#3 I agree with the sentence for child rapists and child murderers. Except I would have had them hung. Slowly.

#4 Lingchi would be acceptable too, Darth.

Modern folks typically don't have the necessary patience for that, though.

#5 Well savagery it may be, but it's always best to speak the local language.
