Religion of Peace update: UNICEF’s photo of the year

40-year old Afghan, 11-year-old bride
Absolutely disgusting. (h/t: Michelle Malkin)

The image hardly fits our idea of the happy couple’s wedding picture – but this haunting photograph taken in Afghanistan graphically captures life for millions of girls given in marriage while under age. It shows Mohammed, 40, with his new 11-year-old wife, Ghulam. Taken by US photographer Stephanie Sinclair, it was named Unicef Photo of the Year yesterday.

Some 60 million girls worldwide are married while still under age, according to the children’s rights agency.

I guess we shouldn’t be too angry with this guy. After all, he’s just following the example set by Islam’s prophet, Muhammad, who had his own 9-year-old wife.
