Women’s march organizer Linda Sarsour says Saudi Arabia’s treatment of women “puts us to shame”

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.”

linda-sarsour-saudi-arabia-tweet


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.

Yeah, lol, when I think of women being treated well the first country that comes to mind is the terrorist backing, 3000 Americans killing, sick, demented country of Saudi Arabia.

Shame? Well, guess who else offered fully paid maternity leave.
Women in the USSR are accorded equal rights with men in all spheres of economic, state, cultural, social and political life. The possibility of exercising these rights is ensured to women by granting them an equal right with men to work, payment for work, rest and leisure, social insurance and education, and by state protection of the interests of mother and child, pre-maternity and maternity leave with full pay, and the provision of a wide network of maternity homes, nurseries and kindergartens.

1936 USSR constitution, Article 122

Women and men have equal rights in the USSR.

Exercise of these rights is ensured by according women equal access with men to education and vocational and professional training, equal opportunities in employment, remuneration, and promotion, and in social and political, and cultural activity, and by special labor and health protection measures for women; by providing conditions enabling mothers to work; by legal protection, and material and moral support for mothers and children, including paid leaves and other benefits for expectant mothers and mothers, and gradual reduction of working time for mothers with small children.

1977 USSR constitution, Article 35
When you want things reduced to that lowest common anti-family denominator, you have zero credibility.

Why do none of them head for greener pastures?

All this talk about how many other places are so much better than here. They never go there though and live there for years and come back and confirm how awesome it is there.

They are just inexperienced little ranting hormonal teenagers.

In short, Sharia means plenty of free money, it’s good! A bitch mentality going in pair with Islam’s looting mentality.

I’ve never heard of any women who was born in the U.S. who chose to permanently move to Saudi Arabia.

Actually, they are out there, believe it or not; Stupid college co-eds who were wooed and bedded by Muslim men with visions of marrying into the riches of Saudi Royalty. There was an article on these dimwits not too many years ago. Liberal politics plus dreams of getting your hands on somebody else's wealth makes for an awfully stupid combination.

Thank God Trump won otherwise we would be dealing with absolute psychopaths like this for the next 8 years. Instead the radical left is going through its death throes and in a month or so nobody will give a damn what they say.

This Muzzlime hoor is meant to be like a Judas goat, leading gullible stupid libtard women to demand Sharia and other cruel restrictions on a normal life.

I knew a ditz I worked with, she was studying the Middle East in college.

Married to a muslim guy.

I asked her about sharia and how the men treat women and she reported me to the manager.

He was conservative and said just don’ talk to her anymore

Does this wacko live in the US? Is she legal? Maybe Trump should consider rescinding her visa or legal status and deporting her.

Long before I’m considering the whole sharia interest rate thing I’ve already put it in the “not even consider” column for the absence of bacon and alcohol. If the fifth column whore considers it so great she should just cart her ass to the most convienient islamic run state.

But you know her ilk is probably less ISIS than “dog who finally catches a car one day”. She’s fine fronting the talk and sucking up all of the adoration of the endless supply of morons we have here but you know if there was an iota of a chance in her mind the US was going to either breakdown into low grade religious war or go sharia she would be carting her sorry ass off in a heartbeat to some other nation like Argentina, Australia, or New Zealand where the humanity cancer hadn’t metastasized as bad and she could peddle her taquiaa riddled islamic lite bullshit to another pack of illogically guilt ridden unearnedly prosperous pajama wearing latte sippers...

This idiot is not only delusional and a Sharia whore, but she is crazy as well. Leftist Islamists combine the worst of both worlds (Wait, there is no good in those two worlds). Sorry.

Shariah-compliant lenders only pretend not to charge interest.

They charge the borrower the fully amortised sum, split into monthly payments.

I had a cousin who had to join her husband in Saudi Arabia. He worked for the oil industry. She divorced him because she could not live in the confining society. Her husband took on the Muslim mindset that ruled her with beatings. She “escaped” back to America fearing for her life.
