Iraq: Diaper Your Goats' Genitals Or Be Killed
A bit extreme:
...shepherds in the rural western Baghdad neighborhood of Gazalea have recently been murdered, according to locals, for failing to diaper their goats....
...because, as the NPR audio report says, the exposed genitals of goats may cause impure thoughts in locals who come in contact with them.
Two points:
1) This is a religious-fanatic militia thing, not official state policy.
2) At least they're not blaming the victim.
