Shows us how enlightened and progressive the (non-Gaza, non-Hamas) Palestinian government are for appointing women to be judges in their, er, sharia courts. A court system notorious around the world for its' barbaric punishments and extreme sexism.
I don't really see how this is particularly interesting news for the UK, and I suppose it's progress in a way, but still...
You'd think left-wing activists would have the sense to keep quiet about their mates being adherents to such an unfair system of justice would you... unless of course they weren't left wing at all but in fact a bunch of right wing scumbags in leftist clothing.
Stop press- The author of the peice, Kawther Salaam, is an interesting character: a conspiraloon who writes for prisonplanet.com (see this brilliantly pedantic piece about how Al-Qaeda doesn't exist), various other websites and her own blog, where she (Warning! VERY NASTY dead babies image coming up!) berates teh evil j000z from a comfy pad in, er Austria.
The Indymedia article is basically a piece of spam from this person. It must be nice to have your own personal loudhailer in which you can spout bollox about "progressive" sharia law and so forth. And this PR puff-piece for Sharia law, written by a blantantly manipulative propagandist -is just one sample of the type of person that posts on UK Indy!
