seriously, check this shit out:
TEL AVIV – In a New York bar, men and women might exaggerate their biographies in the pursuit of the opposite sex. But here in the Holy Land, deceiving your partner can have serious consequences.
The Jerusalem District Court ruled this week on the fine points of what a man must tell a woman before they engage in sexual relations, convicting an Arab man of "rape by deception" for lying to a Jewish woman to get her to sleep with him.
Two years ago, 30-year-old Sabbar Kashur met a woman in the city of Jerusalem and introduced himself as a Jewish bachelor seeking a serious relationship. Shortly after meeting the woman, the two had consensual sex.
But later, when the Jewish woman found out that Kashur was an Arab, not a fellow Jew, she filed a police complaint alleging rape and indecent assault. (The misrepresentation went further – he was not a bachelor either, but rather a married father of two daughters).
On Monday, Kashur was convicted on the charge of rape by deception and sentenced to 18 months in prison by the Jerusalem District Court.
In the verdict, Judge Zvi Segal said that the consent for sex was obtained under false pretenses. "If she had not thought the accused was a Jewish bachelor interested in a serious romantic relationship, she would not have cooperated," the judge wrote in his verdict.
The court rejected a request by Kashur’s lawyers that he perform community service in lieu of jail time, writing: "The court is obliged to protect the public interest from sophisticated, smooth-tongued criminals who can deceive innocent victims at an unbearable price – the sanctity of their bodies and souls."
