Edwards Statement On Saudi Rape Victim's Sentence

Nov 21, 2007 2:46 PM

Chapel Hill, North Carolina – Today, Senator John Edwards released the following statement:

“Today’s news that a Saudi Arabian court has chosen to punish the victim of a gang rape is an appalling breach of the most fundamental human rights. I am outraged that President Bush has refused to condemn the sentence. We need a president who will reengage with the world and restore our moral authority - only then will we be able to lead other nations in protecting the basic rights and human dignity of every person on this planet.”
