Women's Rights - Hillary Clinton Wednesday condemned the sentencing of a Saudi rape victim to 200 lashes and six months in jail as an "outrage" and rebuked the White House for its response to the incident, reports El Vocero de Michigan in the Spanish language version of an AFP article. Clinton, who argues on the 2008 campaign trail that she has the foreign policy experience needed of a president, recalled how she had spoken out on human rights violations at a global conference on women in Beijing in 1995. "The latest example is the punishment of 200 lashes that a Saudi Arabian court has given to a victim -- the victim -- of a gang rape". "This is an outrage," Clinton said in a statement.

"Ever since then [meeting HRC during both their husbands presidencies] I knew she had the strength to become President of the United States...and I know that if elected she would be a formidable advocate of women around the world," she added.
