As we read some of the articles about the Zarqawi termination and who’d kicked the bucket with the worthless roach, we noted how the media were quick to describe Zarqy’s wife as being in her “late teens” rather than pointing out her actual, you know, age.

Having a finely calibrated B.S. Meter™, we were pretty convinced that this meant that she was “older than 15, but just barely, and we wouldn’t want to tarnish our hero Zarqawi’s image as a heroic freedom fighter by mentioning that, so we’ll just say ‘late teens’ instead since that, technically speaking, is perfectly true.”

But since we couldn’t prove anything, we just let it go and thought nothing of it.

Well, we can now, thanks to LC & IB Charles (and a tip from the Imperial Linkmaster General):

The Jordanian security official told TIME that the bombing killed Abdul-Rahman and Mr. X, in addition to al-Zarqawi’s 16-year-old wife.

You know what? We should just quit holding back and go with our gut instinct instead, since it tends to be right on the target 99.999% of the time.

Oh, but wait, there’s more: The airstrike also killed their 18-month-old son.

Time to do some math. Assuming, to be generous, that she was just a day shy of her 17th birthday when her poor choice in husbands got her blown to tiny bits, that’d make her 15 and a half at the birth of her son which again, assuming that gestation takes as long for terrorists’ wives as it does for civilized human beings, would mean that she was 14 when Zarqawi knocked her up. Or 13, if she’d just turned 16 when she died.

Charming people, aren’t they?

    Unfortunately, the pedo-slamo-mohamo-fascists will view ZonkOwwweee’s wife’s age as a token of his charisma. He was just following in the footsteps of the pedo-prophet after all, just like he was while beheading helpless, non-combatant captives. Watch the Arab street revel in its degeneracy over this slime-ball; then wonder how any human being could think that islam isn’t the enemy.

    1) i’m no legal expert and 2) not a Zarqawi fan and 3)ain’t no hypocrite

    in most of the 50 states of the USA, someone less than the age of consent can marry if they have a) court approval or b) if they parental approval or c) if there is a pregnancy

    from Texas state law:

    § 2.003. APPLICATION FOR LICENSE BY MINOR. In addition
    to the other requirements provided by this chapter, a person under
    18 years of age applying for a license must provide to the county
    clerk:
    (1) documents establishing, as provided by Section
    2.102, parental consent for the person to the marriage;
    (2) documents establishing that a prior marriage of
    the person has been dissolved; or
    (3) a court order granted under Section 2.103
    authorizing the marriage of the person

    DS- Here we go again playing chapter and verse:

    Connecticut General Statutes, Chapter 952: Penal Code

    Sec. 53a-70. Sexual assault in the first degree: Class B or A felony. (a) A person is guilty of sexual assault in the first degree when such person (1) compels another person to engage in sexual intercourse by the use of force against such other person or a third person, or by the threat of use of force against such other person or against a third person which reasonably causes such person to fear physical injury to such person or a third person, or (2) engages in sexual intercourse with another person and such other person is under thirteen years of age and the actor is more than two years older than such person, or (3) commits sexual assault in the second degree as provided in section 53a-71 and in the commission of such offense is aided by two or more other persons actually present, or (4) engages in sexual intercourse with another person and such other person is mentally incapacitated to the extent that such other person is unable to consent to such sexual intercourse.

    (b) (1) Except as provided in subdivision (2) of this subsection, sexual assault in the first degree is a class B felony for which two years of the sentence imposed may not be suspended or reduced by the court or, if the victim of the offense is under ten years of age, for which ten years of the sentence imposed may not be suspended or reduced by the court.

    (2) Sexual assault in the first degree is a class A felony if the offense is a violation of subdivision (1) of subsection (a) of this section and the victim of the offense is under sixteen years of age or the offense is a violation of subdivision (2) of subsection (a) of this section. Any person found guilty under said subdivision (1) or (2) shall be sentenced to a term of imprisonment of which ten years of the sentence imposed may not be suspended or reduced by the court if the victim is under ten years of age or of which five years of the sentence imposed may not be suspended or reduced by the court if the victim is under sixteen years of age.

  19. sig94 Comment by sig94 UNITED STATES

    Statutory rape means that, under a certain age, an actor is incapable of giving his/her consent. Ergo the parental consent component. A person who is mentally incompetent, by law, cannot give consent at any age.

    I’ve locked up a few guys for that kind of crap. Perverts all.

    And counting the number of underage marriages in Alabama?? Gimme a break. That’s like counting blistered buttholes in San Francisco. Plus the stats (2004) are skewed because:

    1) They combine all brides between the ages of 15 - 19
    2) 85% of those marriages (3,474 out of 4,092) were to males between the ages of 15 and 24.
    3) al-Zarqawi was 40 years old, that puts him way down in the lower 0.5%; if he couldn’t threaten a family to give up the young stuff he’d be in Allah’s PedeoPark sitting on a bench with a bowl of frigging Jujubes on his lap.

    Here is a free clue for doublestandard:

    If you marry a 16 year-old in the US, local LE as well as the parents and relatives of the girl will, 99% of the time, try to get your ass jailed, or try to run you out of town if that doesn’t work.

    If you marry a 16 year-old in a country under sharia, people will ask you “Why did you marry such a spinster?”

  39. Mike Zeares Comment by Mike Zeares UNITED STATES

    Back in the ’80s, I knew a couple of girls who got married at 16, with the required parental permission. It’s perfectly legal as long as the sex comes after the marriage vows. Even a girl of 17 (age of consent in TX) would have to get permission, since the marriage age is 18.

    I see that Texas law does allow a 13 year old to get married, with a court order. However, in such cases an advocate is assigned to make a recommendation to the court based on the best interest of the child. So the law recognizes that a 13 yr old may be sexually mature, but not able to make such a decision on their own. Anyway, it wasn’t that long ago in our culture that such things weren’t that unusual (esp. in rural areas), and I imagine there are probably some pockets in the country where it still goes on without being remarkable. Although I suspect that most cases of underage marriage actually involve prosecutable offenses prior to the marriage, regardless of what the local community thinks about it.

    All that said, the idea of drawing a moral equivilent between state laws that provide for marriage of underage persons under certain legal requirements, but where such marriages are actually rare, and a society in which young girls are routinely raped and “married” against their will, is the definition of reprehensible. Or at least a definition.
