The only thing about this that surprises me is that the Lebanese government is cohesive enough to mandate something that is actually then carried through in the field.





As for the tests, in Iran or Saudi Arabia, they wouldn't even bother with it before they executed the men so accused.



Arab world's leading LGBT group says tests on men suspected of homosexuality 'shameful, illegal and irrelevant scientifically'



Dozens of people demonstrated outside the law courts in the Lebanese capital on Saturday to protest the use of anal tests on men suspected of homosexuality, which is a criminal offence in the Arab country.



The rally followed a July 28 police raid on a gay venue in a working class district of Beirut when 36 men were taken into custody and forced to undergo the examinations, reportedly to determine their sexual orientation.

Yeah, a year in prison seems pretty mild by comparison.
