Some may ask why I'm bringing this up now, at a time when the region has risen up, fueled not by the usual hatred of America and Israel but by a common demand for freedom. After all, shouldn't everyone get basic rights first, before women demand special treatment? And what does gender, or for that matter, sex, have to do with the Arab Spring? But I'm not talking about sex hidden away in dark corners and closed bedrooms. An entire political and economic system -- one that treats half of humanity like animals -- must be destroyed along with the other more obvious tyrannies choking off the region from its future. Until the rage shifts from the oppressors in our presidential palaces to the oppressors on our streets and in our homes, our revolution has not even begun.

Unfortunately the United States is no better...

Sex crimes against women in the US military have been covered up and allowed to continue for decades...

Wife beating is excused in many states as “she deserved it”

We need to clean up our own act before we worry about other countries...

sympathize with the women yes

but how can we point fingers when the men in our own country are no better...

While the Middle East call crimes against woman “religious freedoms”

the West call it “the fault of the women's movement”

and blame the reporting of abuse on PC and equal rights...

How many times in these threads have we read that the women tell lies about the “immocent” men ???

Not only in America are there sex crimes and other abuses against women that are not stopped..

While roving gangs think nothing of “wilding” women in parks in New York during the day (Groping and sexually molesting )

in New Zealand during tournament weekends gang rape is a popular way to celebrate a win...

Every year incidents of rape especially gang rape is greatly increased for that one week...

With a sick criminal mentality against women by males born and bred in Western Civilization

is it any wonder that in Britian and Australia and Scandinavia most rape is now comitted by Islamic males

based on their own cultures and acerbated by the indifference of the West

How the Islamics must laugh at us...

The divided culture of the West play right into the hands of the abusers of women in the East..

When I started reading this story I did not have an inkling of what was in it.

I was thinking of America’s women and the feminist movement and why they hate men.

As I read the story and found that it was about abuses of Islamic women I began to wonder how these feminists in America could ignore the horrors that women of the Middle east face.

Even our own American women serving in our military were ordered to wear scarves, and any woman visiting must cover up.Even Pelosi and Hillary Clinton are have been pictured in that country wearing scarves.

Atrocities, beatings, having their clitoris removed, killed in honor killings, married off at 9 years old, none of these things seem to bother our feminists or our California female Senators and Congresswomen.

All they seem to care about is aborting their children,Making the same salaries as men, and same sex marriage.

Women are hard to understand, even though these things are going on in the Middle east there are many Islamic women who seem to want to be mutilated, want to commit suicide in bombings and want to raise their children to be terrorist martyrs.I suppose they are much like the women in this country who keep returning to husbands who abuse them.

Women, can’t live with them can’t live without them, but it would seem that the women in this country would stop once in a while and think about their abused sisters in the Middle east.

Meanwhile we keep talking about civil rights and human abuses and keep sending more foreign aid.

Middle Eastern women could end the abuses of islam if they worked together. They could probably end islam as well.

With the internet, social networking, they could do it. Why don’t they?
