Linda Sarsour organized the recent women’s march.
Below is a screen capture of a tweet that she made, which says the following:
“10 weeks of PAID maternity leave in Saudi Arabia. Yes PAID. And ur worrying about women driving. Puts us to shame.”
And this woman is a role model for millions of U.S. women?
In my opinion, that’s pretty scary.
She also made this tweet, which says
“shariah law is reasonable and once u read into the details it makes a lot of sense. People just know the basics”
and this tweet, which says
“You’ll know when you’re living under Sharia Law if suddenly all your loans & credit cards become interest free. Sound nice, doesn’t it?”
and this tweet, which says
“If you are still paying interest than Sharia Law hasn’t taken over America.”
So there you have it. Millions of U.S. women support a woman who wants the U.S. to adopt a legal system that bans women from driving cars, prohibits women from appearing alone in public, calls for girls to have their genitals mutilated, and gives a woman’s testimony in court only half the value of a man’s.
Of course, immigration patterns prove that women overwhelmingly prefer living in the U.S. over Saudi Arabia. I’ve never heard of any women who was born in the U.S. who chose to permanently move to Saudi Arabia. But I have heard of plenty of women who were born in Saudi Arabia who chose to permanently move to the U.S.
Sarsour herself was born in Brooklyn. I’m glad she was born in the U.S., because she has far more rights and freedoms here than she would in Saudi Arabia. It’s too bad that she mistakenly thinks that women women are better off in Saudi Arabia than in the U.S. I hope she will reconsider her position.

Maybe I’m being silly here, but your comment makes me think of the “free lunch” mindset of the liberal left.
You can even see how it ruined NHL hockey, as a number of years back, the same sort of twits would go on about how stupid players like Guy Lafleur or Al Secord or Rod Langway or Bobby Clarke and numerous other veteran players were for not wearing helmets. Nowadays, the game is filled with stickwork and blindsiding and cheapshot offences a great deal because the headgear took away a great deal of respect players had in previous years and gave them a “I’ll do whatever I want out there, I am owed that sort of thing”.
I can spot a Brotherhood Spy at a 100 Yards, even the cute ones.
How do you get leave if you cannot leave home without an escort?

I was just thinking this morning about being in a work environment and I am sure glad I am retired!
I know a few Saudi women in the United States. We couldn’t take family pictures of them. They had to wear full head coverings in public though they would remove the most restrictive of those when the door was closed. No driving. If their children had difficulties at school, the husband had to deal with the problem. There are more things I noticed, but these few things are enough.
Born and raised in Brooklyn.
I want here out of my Country.
Anybody ask her about getting an abortion in Saudi Arabia? Can’t be done without approval from 3 doctors and the husband.
No, you'll know you're living under sharia law when you have to cover head to toe, can't drive, have your genitals mutilated so you can't enjoy sex, need a male relatives permission to go outside the house, get stoned to death for being raped, and your family can honor kill you with no consequences.
No, it doesn't sound nice.......
It's her followers who are delusional and crazy. She's probably raking it in from the endless supply of dingbats the Left seems to produce.

The two sacred cows of the alt-left are a woman’s right to kill her unborn baby on demand and LGBT rights. Both abortion and LGBT rights are illegal under Sharia Law, with LGBT punishable in Saudi Arabia by death.

She left out...
- women can’t drive in Saudi Arabia
- women out in public cannot be in the company of a man other than a husband or a male family member
- when out in public, women must be properly covered (hijab and abaya minimum)
- women are basically chattel, divorce is at the husband’s discretion, and the divorced wife gets basically only what she can carry or wear (hence all the gold jewelry)
- oh, and Linda, if your husband should decide to beat you to death, he’ll probably get off scot-free
This just off the top of my head without going into the specifics of punishments under the legal system for adultery, making an accusation of rape etc etc.
OK. As soon as the pregnant women surrender their drivers licensees they can get 10 weeks paid preggo leave.
But even then they wont STFU.
Can we throw acid in their faces if they dont shut up??
This harlot has brought dishonor to her family. According to sharia, what comes next?
Islam is what I scrape off of my shoe.
I came here to ask about how “interest free Sharia loans” work. Thanks for the concise summary; got any links to more details?
Thank you for the links.
