So very 'Christian'.

I think you misunderstood... Amputation is the Islamic punishment for theft...And yes they are very civilized in the Middle East...In Saudi Arabia for example the death sentence is carried out by public beheading...

From the Capitol punishment in Saudi Arabia Wiki...

Saudi Arabia has a criminal justice system based on a hardline and literal form of Shari'ah law reflecting a particular state-sanctioned interpretation of Islam.

The death penalty can be imposed for a wide range of offences[6] including murder, rape, false prophecy, blasphemy, armed robbery, repeated drug use, apostasy,[7] adultery,[8] witchcraft and sorcery[9][10][11][12] and can be carried out by beheading with a sword,[13] or more rarely by firing squad, and sometimes by stoning.[14][15]

The 345 reported executions between 2007 and 2010 were all carried out by public beheading.[16] The last reported execution for sorcery took place in August 2014.[17][18] There were no reports of stoning between 2007 and 2010,[16] but between 1981 and 1992 there were four cases of execution by stoning reported.[19]

So in 2014 the Saudi's were still convicting people of "witchcraft & sorcery" and executing them.
