What does this say about society, when a loving marriage like this one, with so much potential, couldn't make it?

CAIRO – An 8-year-old Saudi girl has divorced her middle-aged husband after her father forced her to marry him last year in exchange for about $13,000, her lawyer said Thursday.

Strange, the article didn't even mention ***. Which I would think is the first sickening thing to pop up in everyones head, ain't it? I know this is Saudi Arabia, but don't they have laws concerning *** with little prepubescent girls?

Also, thought this was weird;

One Saudi human rights activist Sohaila Zain al-Abdeen was optimistic that the girl's divorce would help efforts to get a law passed enforcing a minimum marriage age of 18.
Thats a mighty big jump from, apparently, any age to 18.

Frankly, I don't give two sh ts what those backward jerks do in their dessert, so long as my gas stays at $2 a gallon.
