With all the publicity given to the "abuse" of Iraqi prisoners, I thought this article puts into perspective what constitutes abuse in Moslem countries.

[gathersnomoss]

Thank you.

[lilylangtree]

As a woman, I thank you. What I find unforgiveable is the outcry by the islamic world over the alleged torture of Iraqi prisoners because they're men, and no outcry over the inhuman treatment of women perpetrated by islamics.

And not one word from NOW and the feminists...

"Not only is this practice completely medically unnecessary, barbaric, and unethical, it carries significant health risks." So is male circumsisions.

American circumsize their baby boys in great numbers, which should be considered barbaric. Having said so, please do not take me wrong. Most Moslems traditions are also barbaric, including the burka.......

It is disturbing that many Catholics have adopted a philosophical preference for Islam over Judaism.

I'd be curious to know the source of this information.

[iwannaknow07]

So, so sad.

[siunevada]

It is disturbing that many Catholics have adopted a philosophical preference for Islam over Judaism. Furthermore, in some instances, some prominent Catholics have even made the unfortunate suggestion that there is much commonality between the true Faith and the religion of Islam.

No footnotes and no quotes. Many Catholics? I don't think so.

Islamic clerics and rulers, unsatisfied with a mere penalty of death for the accused, wish to ensure that these women will suffer eternity in hell as well. However, quite a number of the accused girls are virgins, and Islam teaches that virgins go to Paradise upon their deaths. As a solution this problem, in order to ensure the damnation of the accused, Islamic authorities will often order the prison guards to systematically rape female prisoners before they are killed.

Now that's thinking! Applying logic on the basis of demented premises yields... justice?

Devils truly walk the Earth.
Powerful elements within our society; the media, the academic community, and various activist groups; spare no effort to excuse and incite them in their barbarism.
These elements are fully complicit, and they too must be brought to justice.
We have been at war with these savages for three years now, but the real war has not even begun.
It will begin when the civilized world recognizes the real enemy, the enemy within.

The Status of Women in Islam, scroll to Chapter 3:

These fiends are not human beings. They are some form of animal.

Ayatollah Khomeini: "Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious."

[JimRed]

Abuse? In Islamic eyes it is normal, day to day living.

What?!? Since when?!?

EVIL 'religion'.
EVIL people who believe in it.
It's time on this earth has long since passed.
The Islamic love of death over life is nothing less than acknowledgement that this suicidal 'religion' itself should die.
MUST die- before it poisons the world.

"Thank Allah for Little Girls"

That's what Mohamed said on his wedding night with his 9 year old bride.

Well it comes as no surprise to me because the sick bastards pray to a pedophile to begin with.

[Darksheare]

The Hashashins, from which we get the term assassin, practiced clitorectomy.
This prevented female sexual release, which led to psychosis and sadistic tortures.
They'd hand prisoners to these unfortunates who'd torment them to death.
From this came the statement, "Whatever you do, don't let them hand you over to their women."

I am uncertain whether this particular barbaric practice is still performed, but judging from the article, it leads me to believe that it may be practiced in some places still.

And the feminists?
Mostly strangely silent about it.
Except for one or towo notables, but the NOW gang and Planned Parenthood are extremely silent about these practices.

"Who are we to judge other cultures? That's just part of their way of life."

I recently heard comic Judy Gold saying that we went into Iraq because we arrogantly think that we know better how to run things than [presumably Saddam Hussein].

Well, when it comes to imprisoning children, putting people into plastic shredders [feet first so that thier agonizing death will that much more prolonged], filling mass-graves,etc., maybe the lovely Ms. Gold has a point.

I'm sure that her ilk believes that the only culture that should be condemned is that of the United States!
