Japanese netizen reactions to Islamists whipping women who wear bras

The insurgent group, which seeks to impose a strict form of sharia Islamic law throughout Somalia, amputated a foot and a hand each from two young men accused of robbery earlier this month. They have also banned movies, musical ringtones, dancing at wedding ceremonies and playing or watching soccer.
A few translations of comments left by users of the Japanese web forum 2channel in response to a Reuters news story about Islamic militants in Somali who have been flogging women who wear bras [via the popular blog Itai News]:
So bras are bad and S&M is okay?
— A public S&M show?
— This sounds exactly like the kind of villains that appear in Go Nagai manga.
— Next time give us a video.
— It must be hell to be born a woman in a place like this.
I’m glad I was born Japanese.— Using religion for S&M play.
— Tell me perv, is it alright to wear panties?
— Do the scriptures really talk about this sort of stuff?
Isn’t this just some asshole warping the meaning of the text?— Anything goes in anarchy, huh?
Pretty scary.— Do they think the same way about men wearing briefs?
— This boils down to people using religious doctrine as an excuse to do whatever they want.
This is pretty extreme even for primitives.
