The UN says militant Islamist group Isis has ordered all women and girls in Mosul, northern Iraq, to undergo female genital mutilation (FGM).
UN official Jacqueline Badcock said the fatwa, or religious edict, applied to females between the ages of 11 and 46.

Now THERE’s the REAL war on women!
Just a few minutes ago I was t5hiking, “This can’t get worse.” And then I read this.
Female genital mutilation (FGM), also known as female genital cutting and female circumcision, is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as "all procedures that involve partial or total removal of the external female genitalia or other injury to the female genital organs for non-medical reasons."
FOR NON-MEDICAL REASONS !
For no reason other than to assert domination and control.
I pray God will strike down this evil and save those poor women.
Compare the rather subdued and timid reaction of the UN to the grilling the Vatican was subject to from them over Catholic teaching on abortion and sexual morals.
non-medical —
Not covered by bo-care.
MASSIVE arab male insecurity.
If a woman can never experience an orgsam, if sex is always painful or at least uncomfortable, she isn't apt to stray.
Maybe you're right. However, it's a good bet that they'll slam all religion, and speak of the evils of ‘religious fanaticism’, rather than to direct this wholly toward Islam. I think the idea that the left will ever be convinced by facts or argument that they are wrong, about anything, is a non-starter. They are the self-convinced. They are the intellectually and morally superior. Of this they are certain. In addition, there is a great deal of hatred on the left, not much different than that which fuels the zealots who persecute others in the Middle East.
And if they do? Are you kidding? These are MUSLIMS - TERRORISTS. They listen to no one but allah.
Perhaps all the muslim men would like to have their u-no-what’s sliced off. IMO, that would be equivalent to FGM.
A new process at the Mosul DMV...........If women could drive?
Me too. God may listen to you.
They’re basically like the Japanese when they raided Nanking. That’s the kind of horror that is going on there, and this is all perfectly acceptable to the Kenyan in the White house.
Sandra Fluke can’t wait to condemn this procedure on every Sunday morning show.
To bad there are no men with the courage to protect the women. Muslim men seem to fall within two categories: Savages and Cowards.
You're kidding, right? If they do, which is extremely unlikely, it will somehow be spun to be Bush's fault or conservatives fault or an example of what the Hobby Lobby ruling will lead to...
Prayers for these women in Iraq.
I can hardly wait till my female Senator Kirsten Elizabeth Rutnik Gillibrand holds press conferences and issues press reports across New York state, followed by convening hearings to see what the United States should do about.
You know kind of like she did for sexual harassment in the military.
Why? .......... “Tradition, tradition!”
NOW is silent. Their panties are in a wad about someone somewhere not submitting to an abortion.
