Religious propaganda?

Unread post by sunshine05 »

There's a news story all over the place about a Sudanese woman who was sentenced to hanging for marrying a christian. The only photo of the couple looks very odd. Could her wrist really be positioned that way? The blue background reminds me of 9/11 vicsims or Lanza or the Boston bombers.

If it´s a propaganda piece, it is more likely a reinforcement of the usual anti-traditional "religion-fosters-violence" shibboleth. The image could be anything, but I´d say the woman is a man. Or at least as manly as Michelle Obama. :P

The story is still alive on the news. I did a Google search and found only three different images (in countless versions). The first one is a larger version of the one posted by sunshine05, in which we see the "floor" as well.

It looks almost exactly how I would imagine the "Nigerian Prince" scam e-mails to be illustrated. No offense to the Sudanese.
