The sentences are too light, but all this blood thirsty talk of torture and vengence is a little disturbing. The rapists should all serve at least 20 years though.
In Iran I believe women who are raped are often punished by the law for it, because it is seen as their fault that the rape occurs. Economic sanctions should certainly be applied against any country that has laws like this.
