Hamas Fills Gaza Prison With Women Convicted of Premarital Sex

A Palestinian woman sits at Saraya prison that had been used by Israeli security services to keep Palestinian prisoners during Israel's occupation of Gaza Strip

There have been stories about Afghan prisons filled with women convicted of Zina or sexual immorality, but with Hamas’ victory, the Taliban came to Gaza.

For many people in Gaza, crimes committed by women are rarely heard of due to the conservative nature of Gazan society. Families of female convicts usually don’t disclose their whereabouts, and even lie about it.

The head of the prison, Jazya Abu Mousa, said that this year has witnessed the largest number of female prisoners since she began working there in 2007.

Criminals in the prison are divided into three categories: thieves, security convicts of crimes often related to cooperating with the Israeli occupation and “moral” convicts, which includes prostitution or sexual relations without marriage. This final category holds the largest number of prisoners.

It’s unknown whether any of the female prisoners are also accused of being witches.

In 2010, the Hamas regime in Gaza conducted a literal witchhunt in which they arrested 150 women. According to news reports, women arrested as witches are forced to sign confessions and statements renouncing witchcraft. In connection with the witchhunt, the regime has placed large anti-witchcraft posters at mosques, universities and at government offices.

There’s a case for Gaza being the world’s largest open air prison. But it’s a prison whose bars, the inmates chose when they voted for Hamas. Its jailers aren’t Israeli border guards keeping terrorists from killing civilians, it’s the Hamas theocracy of the Muslim Brotherhood.

    IF one understands what animates Hamas's actions, in its essence, one cannot separate one Islamist group from the next. This is why the Taliban's actions, ruled by the same Sharia Law, resonates all over the Islamic world. One then realizes that placing women in prison for premarital sex is a "natural" outgrowth. Hamas IS Islamist ruled, as is the PA/Fatah terror junta, yet they fly more under the radar, as the erstwhile "peace" partners of Israel.

    Be that as it may, Sharia Law is barbaric in its underpinnings, and these women will be lucky to escape with their lives, as "infidels" know all too well – http://adinakutnicki.com/2012/08/21/repeat-until-

    There is NO moderate Islam, as simple, and as depressing, as that.

    Are all of these women lesbians? If not…who ratted these women out and why aren't THEY in prison for THEIR participation?

    It sounds like they were all rounded up in one place for easier access. After all, it's hard to find time to look for a date when you spend every day building and detonating IED's and hating all those people you were taught about in the madrassa.

    What they've created here is a low budget, high profit brothel.

    Ladies…keep this in mind when you hear Muslims in America extolling the virtues of Sharia!

      oh, no, see, what probably happened is they reported a rape.

      • Looking4Sanity

        I must admit that that was a possibility I had not factored in. Thank you. I think that at least some portion of those women fit into that category. We can be fairly certain that their fate will be no different than the others…and that is a disgraceful shame.

      "Are all of these women lesbians? If not…who ratted these women out and why aren't THEY in prison for THEIR participation?"

      Silly rabbit, men can't be accountable for Islamic rape. Islamic rape is by definition when a women rapes the mind of a man by getting him aroused. How can a man be guilty of that unless he's gay and aroused another victim by forcing him to penetrate the criminal?

      This is why the world need burqa laws along with those sensible blasphemy laws. Don't forget to cover the eyes because the Saudis have discovered that some of these women rapists can even attack men by looking at them in provocative ways.

      • Looking4Sanity

        Your burqa observation got me to thinking. Women's ability to arouse with a look is well documented. Did the use of burqas cause this ability to develop, or did this ability exist prior to the burqa?

        A better question than that is: how sick do you have to be to look at a beautiful work of art and think to yourself "someone ought to put a bag over that so no one can see it"? That strikes me as an admission of a profound lack of self control.

          To everyone but Mo worshipers.

            Of course. That's why they created (largely out of whole cloth) an entire religion to shield them from the consequences of their own carnal weaknesses and general lack of character.

    It is probably rape central for the Islamist puritans or a training school for future sex slaves and
    unapreciated future wives of anamalistic murdering loonatics, slavery is always ugly. I wonder
    if this Palestinian love salon was celebrated as a great accomplishment amongst many at
    Palestinian Day in Paterson N. J., and will this be a vacation destination for N. J. politicos,
    maybe a harem for Christie in the making, turban, big big cushion and love slaves, seems
    about a fitting decorum for Islamist lovers……………………………………William

      I last was in Paterson, N.J. in 1977 as a youth. I imagine things have changed since then.

    No wonder Muslim men are so angry.

    • Looking4Sanity

      Seems like they took that "if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out" thing a little too literally, doesn't it?

  • UCSPanther

    Definitely reeks of the same type of tyranny that the Taliban had with their ramshackle sharia prison state…

  • Jbhat

    This is disgusting; a clearly biased article with little factual references an attempt to club together Hamas with the Taliban.
    The author is also very transparent about defending Israel's siege and blockade of the coastal enclave. Is it any wonder Gaza voted for an anti-Israel party when firstly they are the least corrupt and secondly when they see that Israel does not have its best interest at heart? Their internationally-monitored elections have lead to their segregation from the rest of humanity and their West Bank brothers have fared little better; suffering from a divided nation of checkpoints, apartheid and daily attacks from Jewish settlers as well as self-serving puppet politicians and an artifically weakly-engineered economy.

    If Israel truly cared about democracy, they would have co-operated with Hamas. Especially as Assange's Wikileaks has revealed Hamas' persistent overtures towards the Jewish state. Conversely Israel has used the belligerent rhetoric of a truly moderate organisation to create a state based on persistent warfare for the financial and political gain; much like the US has done over the last 50 years

      Typical answer, if you have nothing to say to contribute to the debate, attack the opposition on a personal level.

    • Drakken

      How does this work for you Hadji? Everything you effing savages get is well deserved and frankly you deserve a hell of lot more of our infidel wrath. Your lucky that I am not in charge, for I would have pushed that rats nest of muslim jihadist savages into the sea and called it a day, may that day come soon for you and yours and I hope the leftarded enablers are with them when they do and good bloody riddance.

    • objectivefactsmatter

      "If Israel truly cared about democracy, they would have co-operated with Hamas."

      Ha ha ha. Not that kind of "democracy." We're not interested in Islamic or any totalitarian "democracy" but in Western constitutional democracies that BAN religious freaks from their evil tyranny.

      That pretty much rightfully excludes Hamas.

      "Conversely Israel has used the belligerent rhetoric of a truly moderate organisation to create a state based on persistent warfare for the financial and political gain; much like the US has done over the last 50 years"

      Don't you love communist-derived jihadi rhetoric? Me neither.

      In any case, if you hate Western democracy so much, that's fine. Remain an enemy and see how far you get.

    • Looking4Sanity

      If you're going to assert that there is a substantive difference between Hamas and the Taliban, then it is incumbent upon you to provide your evidence to that effect. You completely failed in that duty in your headlong rush to attack Israel. Worse yet…once you finally (and clumsily) segued into your attack of Israel and the United States, it was nothing but lies and gross misrepresentations.

      You might as well wear a sign around your neck that says "Hi. My name is Hadji, and I'm a partisan muzzie hack".

      You may now thank me for the free education.
