A very interesting and unbelievable case from Israel.
Arab jailed for sex with Israeli woman
By Adrian Blomfield, The Daily Telegraph July 20, 2010 1:02 PM
A Palestinian man has been convicted of rape after consensual sexual intercourse with an Israeli woman who believed he was Jewish because he introduced himself as “Daniel”. An Israeli court made international legal history by jailing Sabbar Kashur, from East Jerusalem, for 18 months.
The 30 year-old delivery man was convicted of “rape by deception” after a criminal trial that drew criticism from across Israel.
Kashur was accused of misleading the woman, whose identity has not been disclosed, by introducing himself with the traditionally Jewish name when they met on a street in central Jerusalem in 2008. After striking up a conversation, they went into a nearby office block and engaged in a sexual encounter, after which Kashur quickly left.
The woman discovered his true racial background later, lawyers said.
Although conceding that the sexual intercourse was consensual, Tzvi Segal, the district court judge, concluded that the law had a duty to protect women from “smooth-tongued criminals who can deceive innocent victims at an unbearable price”.
She said: “If she hadn’t thought the accused was a Jewish bachelor interested in a serious romantic relationship, she would not have co-operated.”
A conviction for rape by deception on the grounds of racial misrepresentation is believed to be internationally unprecedented, according to British legal experts.
The charge is rarely used in the West. In 2007, a Syrian pilot walked free from a court in Swansea after being accused of tricking a woman into intercourse by saying it could cure a sexually transmitted disease. While forced sexual intercourse by deception is an offence under Israeli law, experts say it is a charge used sparingly in cases involving protracted deceit and a promise of marriage.
Adnan Aladdin, Kashur’s lawyer, said he had filed an appeal to ensure the verdict was not considered to be setting a precedent, adding that otherwise “many men would find themselves in jail”.
Israeli legal experts said they found the verdict disquieting. “It puts the law in the position of what could loosely be described as discrimination. I would feel intuitively uncomfortable about prosecuting someone for something like that,” said a former senior justice ministry official.
Gideon Levy, a leading liberal commentator, said: “What if this guy had been a Jew who pretended to be a Muslim and had sex with a Muslim woman? Would he have been convicted of rape? The answer is: of course not.”
The prosecutor was unavailable for comment. District attorney officials declined to discuss the case.

“many men would find themselves in jail”.
LOL seriously! How many men have lied or exaggerated about their background to get a woman in bed? It accounts for most sexual encounters!
The court convicted him of rape because it pissed them off that an Arab slept with a Jewish woman. This was a racist decision imo.

Wonder if Fox News will print this story
July 20th, 2010 at 5:29 pm
LOL, Emperor was this supposed to be a kind of comic relief?
Never fear we have Lawrence for that, I can’t wait for Lawrence to come here and lecture you, like how you can write and complain about this, when if this had happened in Saudi Arabia or Pakistan (Lawrence’s two favourite countries) with a Muslim woman and a “Kafir”, the man would probably have his genitals cut off looooooooool
Anyway, back to the subject at hand…. how many women are wishing that they could do the same and win a successful prosecution, if this happened to them and how many fathers,…..hmmmm now that’s a thought..

Oh, the world is becoming more stupid every day… do we have a hope?
July 20th, 2010 at 7:54 pm
I would not have called that rape. He lied, it was stupid, but since she consented it was NOT rape

I’m not sure most people who have sex with a stranger within 15 minutes of meeting them are necessarily looking for “romance” as much as, well, how to say this delicately? …
For “the only democracy in the Middle East,” Israel’s laws certainly remind one of the 1935 Nuremberger Gesetz zum Schutze des deutschen Blutes und der deutschen Ehre (law for the protection of blood and honor). Or maybe the many Jim Crow laws that haunted the US until the Sixties.
Oh, and I almost forgot, the Apartheid regime in South Africa.

It is a pity that the jail term was so lenient.That Arab animal should have been put away for much longer term.DECEPTION,RAPE,VIOLENCE,TERRORISM are some of the salient feature of Mohammadanism and Mohammadans.They represent the EVIL and UGLY face of humanity.Live in a Muslim country to appreciate their true face.Mohammad used to rape women and his followers follow his foot steps.

Israel most likely convicted him because of racism but you know what? He deserves it. Shame on him a million times for doing this. He deserved to be humiliated for participating in sex outside of marriage especially in this way. I dont feel a bit sorry for him, there are thousands of Palestinian men, women and children who are jailed in zionist prisons for refusing to accept to be humiliated and opressed or in other cases for simply being Palestinian.
Anyhow, i hope this incident and humiliation has caused him to repent so that he will refrain from doing such actions again.
As for the girl, she seems very confused, why go to bed with a person you have known in 15 minutes and then complain about him lying? is this a joke? Hope she as well has learned a lesson from this.
July 21st, 2010 at 5:59 am
are you fn kidding me? she met the dude, had a one-night-stand-exhibition and is now crying rape because he’s Arab. i wonder if she’d cry rape if it was some american dude. this is so racist!
July 21st, 2010 at 6:00 am
ieeee, havig sex withe an arab!!
Poor woman . She will need a thousand baths to purify herself.
July 21st, 2010 at 7:09 am
So much for the only “democracy” in the middle east, huh?
July 21st, 2010 at 9:59 am
Racism pure and simple . she accepted to have sex , he had not forced her . shame on her . how can she think that a one night stand will result in a long lasting relationship as she pretends ? she is a fool
July 21st, 2010 at 12:04 pm
Dear Lawrence
How’s this for a harsher punishment: sharing a bed with lawrence for a couple of days. I’m sure a repulsive half-breed like you will make him lose his sex drive completely…:D
July 21st, 2010 at 1:51 pm
Lawrence, you are a despicable human being. And you are a Christian, right? You are one extreme nutjob, you belong in a mental institution.
July 21st, 2010 at 1:59 pm
“Mohammad used to rape women and his followers follow his foot steps.”
Sources, Lawrence. Now. From the Qur’an or Hadith. Either that, or stick that outrageous claim back from the body cavity it came from and STFU. For you to seriously believe that a religion that strictly forbids adultery sanctions rape at the same time only shines light on the extent of your stark-raving idiocy.
“Live in a Muslim country to appreciate their true face.”
I did, Lawrence. For 15 years. And in fact, I do appreciate their true face. I may know some idiots who happen to be Muslim, but I know the nicest and most honorable people I’ve ever met, who also happen to be Muslim. And I am going back.
July 21st, 2010 at 2:27 pm
Surely the best advice re Lawrence is “don’t feed the troll”…
July 21st, 2010 at 8:16 pm
Too bad the Arab dude ain’t Lawrence. He sounds like he has had some escapades with Bubba in his past.
July 22nd, 2010 at 4:34 am
I told you all before, Lawrence is NOT a Christian, he’s a Zionist Jew pretending to be radical Christian. His latest Talmudic diarrheal fit proves this. Look at how angry his comment is at the “Arab animal.” He’s really taking it personally isn’t he? Last week, he made Baruch Goldstein style remarks about masjids in East Jerusalem.
This JDL reject has got settler thug written all over him.
As for this Palestinian guy, I can’t support a guy who is deceptive fornicates(zina) yet its interesting that the “israeli state” considers it rape(a very Talmudic definition considering how lowly us Goyim are) yet would be ok with two Jews fornicating? Such Chutzpah.
July 22nd, 2010 at 1:57 pm
I don’t think so, I’d say Lawrence is most probably a typical Bible belt evangelical, his islamphobia is nothing out of the ordinary. And what is this Christian Muslim friendship you speak about that Lawrence is dividing a wedge between?
Regarding your jews pretending to be Christians, It’s actually the other way round, The commentators on far right Zionist sites, are usually Christian Zionists calling themselves Jews, they’re messianics/ southern baptists, if you visited sites yourself instead of relying on misinformation from hate sites like the ones you advocate on your blog, you would know.
Wheras the Judeofascists are a minority in the Jewish community, the “Christo fascists” however are a sizeable majority in the American Evangelical community.

As the Times story illustrates, Evangelical hardliners have a “prophetic” agenda when pushing Israel to keep all the West Bank and to be “tough on the Palestinians” that has nothing to do with what might bring peace (let alone justice) to the actual Jews and actual Arabs who are fated to be neighbors. Gleeful — shamefully tax-deductible — war mongering in the name of Jesus and/or “protecting Israel” — from a safe distance, say from San Antonio! — has everything to do with Evangelicals’ ideas about what will hasten the “return of Christ” and nothing to do with what is actually good for the Israelis, Palestinians and Arabs, let alone the rest of us who long for peace.
With “friends” like the Christian Zionists Israel needs no enemies. With “citizens” like the Evangelicals rooting for Armageddon, America needs no traitors.

“israeli state” considers it rape(a very Talmudic definition considering how lowly us Goyim are) ”
You mean to say that Christianity which sees all as condemned to hell unless they believe in their man deity, cannot possibly be Laurences religion? American Christians were a majority when they sanctioned slavery, because they thought the non Christian was nothing, that is why torture was rife. That is why Crusades were common, and that is why Christiantiy’s history has been blood filled, and genocidal.
A belief in a man god that forgives all sins is way worse than Jewish extremists who consider goyim lowly. So do Muslim extremists for that matter.

@Beautiful Muslim doll,
I don’t want to make this about “Lawrence,” but your assessment is incorrect. It’s a secular analysis like Chris Hedges’ which gives Evangelicals more pull then actually have. Evangelical Christians are no friends of the Muslim community considering Islam to be the “anti-Christ,” however they do not use language like “Arab animals.” Nor are they a majority. As organized as they are, most Americans are NOT Evangelicals, they may be Christofascists but they have no problems accepting converts from Islam, and want to preach their gospel to Muslims. Yes they are war mongers, fascists and worse but they don’t pretend to be Jews(minus the “Jews for Jesus” crowd). The proper term is “Shabbos goyim.”
Judeofascists like “Lawrence” consider Arabs(and Armenians in the past) to be “Amalek” the latest incarnation of their enemy which they believe are the progeny of Eve and the Serpent. Yeah I know it’s insane but this is what they believe. They also use Sabatean methodology which sanction them to pretend to be members of other religions or atheists while keeping a strong pro-Zionist line like Geert Wilders, AtaTurd, Talat Pasha, Stephen Schwartz, Sarkozy etc.

“If she hadn’t thought the accused was a Jewish bachelor interested in a serious romantic relationship, she would not have co-operated.” A serious romantic relationship?? They met on the bloody street said hello and screwed! This has to be the daftest story I’ve read yet!

July 26th, 2010 at 8:52 pm

August 2nd, 2010 at 4:29 pm
What the heck, of course it’s a racist decision! I don’t usually sympathise a lot with Muslims, but this was too much! These ppl simply met, discovered they had the hots for each other, and just went and did it there and then, JUST LIKE ANY NORMAL SEXUALLY-DRIVEN COUPLE WOULD DO ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD!! What the heck is so strange here?? Oh yes, I know – this is Israel, the Middle East’s strongest ‘democracy’. Oh, and also, the man was a Muslim. Shame on him, tsk-tsk!! Going there, dirtying and dishounoring them pretty Israeli women with his sexual acts! Shame on him, I say, and shame on her for being so consensous too! She should know better than to have sex, willingly, with a complete stranger, especially if he’s an Arab, and more especially if he’s Palestinian! Shame on you girl, you should just stick to ‘normal’ Europeans or Americans who would never think of shagging you after 15 mins of meeting you! Not even if you’re some Israeli sex-bomb, like I know some of your women are! NO, a Yankee would never do that. And even if he did, you’d never shout out ‘RAPE!’ afterwards either! Cos he’s American or European! ‘RAPE!’ only happens if the man is Muslim!! Them bloody Muslims, all they want is sex sex sex!! It’s not normal, no American or European man wants only sex sex sex!! TSK-TSK!!! Israel should start posting adverts on American and European travel sites, reading – “COME TO ISRAEL! OUR WOMEN GET SHAGGED IN LESS THAN 15 MINS!! (NOT APPLICABLE IF YOU’RE MUSLIM)” TSK, TSK, I SAY!!
August 5th, 2010 at 6:32 am
Could this be an easy way to make money and try to save her ‘honour’???
I wonder if there are still men who would say the truth and not bluff in the first 15 mins???
August 7th, 2010 at 8:50 pm
When are you gonig to catch up with the rest of the world.
Still living in the 18 cent.

Tiger should quit trying to apologize & embrace his swinging & promiscuous lifestyle, just Like Hugh Hefner did. He could reinvent the sport & take into a completely new direction. Perhaps he could also start wearing clothes like the rappers that glorify such behavior in their music

If strict jewish and islamic law had to be applied in this matter, then both these two parties should have been stoned to death. What’s the point of being “strictly to the law” if you’re gonna be selective in what laws suit your and which don’t. And if a woman’s honour is to be protected for the purpose of racial purity, then should not the same apply if the woman were arab and the man jewish. This whole thing stinks of Nazi laws. These jews are the best students and fans of Nazi purity culture.

She’s just a tramp. Picture this: A women meets a Chinese man in a bar. He says “Hey babe I’m from Tokyo” They get a room and bump uglies. She later finds out he’s from the city Yangquang and that he’s really Chinese and not Japanese. Now she calls rape because he’s not Japanese. Should he go to jail for a year and a half?

is het feit dat zij het goed vond om sex te hebben met zomaar iemand ookal van de zelde ras of geloof raar of ben ik raar. ze moet in mijn ogen meer respect voor drzelf hebben.
