I Had To Pay Rent - 44yr old Ali Jabar, the father of an 11yr old girl was going through financial difficulties. A month ago, Jabar’s landlord asked him for the rent… but he was unable to pay him. So, in order to ‘lessen the pressure’, Jabar was forced the allow his Landlord to marry his daughter. Jabar said, “It is not something that is easy to do, but I had no choice. I feel like I have sold my daughter.
I will never forgive myself for doing this. It is not easy losing sleep over something you have done. I believe that it was the only solution to my problem. It was either that or be evicted - which forces the whole family to live on the street.”
Tragic Examples - 10yr old Hiba said that her marriage failed because her husband did not understand her and treated her badly. She said that she was forced into marriage for financial reasons and that she had no knowledge of what marriage actually means.
11yr old Sama Zuhair said that her father forced her to marry a man 20 years older than her as punishment for failing in school. She said that her father’s intention was to get rid of her so that he could marry another woman. Sama’s mother as killed in a bombing in the Amriya area.
Legal Point Of View - Karada Court Judge, Hamid Al Jabiri said, “Usually, marriage occurs between two adults, but Shariya approves the marriage of minors. The legal issue lies in whether or not the marriage contract meets all the requirements. There is no legal age for marriage, and the issue is left up to the judge’s discretion.
However, the girl’s opinion must be heard, along with that of her mother and those who are involved in the contract. If the marriage causes no harm, then it is ok. However, if it causes any harm to any of the parties involved, it is considered illegal.
Social Advisor at Mustansiriya University, Saman Ali said, “The phenomenon of marrying minors involves ‘physically raping them’. A girl involved in an early marriage will miss out on her childhood. It will also make her an aggressive mother.”
The Court’s Decision - It is worthy to mention that the Karada court ordered that the marriage of 8yr old Najlaa Mohammed Ali be revoked after two months. Najlaa was involved in a ‘religious marriage’ (a cleric conducts the ceremony rather than the court). Her family was forced to pay a $250 fine as compensation for damages to the 30yr old husband.
Medical Warnings - A Health Ministry committee warns that early marriage causes physical and mental damage to young girls and their children. The committee published a report in which they said that girls who are impregnated at an early age have many health problems because their bodies are not ready for pregnancy. These girls experience complications with their menstrual cycle, birth defects, premature birth, miscarriages, and calcium deficiency. On the psychological side, the girls may suffer from emotional problems from the ‘lack of parental love’, hysteria, schizophrenia, depression, anxiety, psychological disturbances, and sexual trauma with their husbands.
Dangerous Results - Other than all of the emotional problems that these girls might have, there is also the problem of adapting to their surroundings. They might have a problem in understanding responsibility and marriage. This may lead to drug/alcohol addiction.
The committee strongly warned that, if these girls become pregnant, their children will be born with serious problems… such as incomplete organs. The children themselves might suffer from the same problems that their mothers have. Therefore, the committee agrees on the fact that early marriage leads to health and mental problems thus increasing disease in the community and placing an additional load on the Iraqi health system.
Special Opinions - Specialists believe that poverty causes many families to offer their daughters to older men - not to mention the other ‘darker’ reasons.
On the flip side of this coin, Iraq abides to many of the UN regulations concerning children’s rights. In accordance with the 1989 UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, Iraq considers every person who is not over 18 to be a child [but it’s still ok to marry them].
This is so "COMMON" over in the Middle East, Canada, Detroit - to name a few - it's absolutely insane.
Get a rope.
Muslim apologists have been organizing several events on my campus lately, insisting (among other things) that Islam is actually progressive towards women, treats them equally, etc. I wonder what the party line is about slavery like this!
This little girl is just expressing her right to get raped by a hairy old man. What a precious culture that gives such freedom. /end sarc

Barack Hussein Obama in Cairo Speech to Muslim world
Then live on the street.
And obama cheers this “marriage” on by promoting cultural “diversity” that harms women, children and any of those not of his muslim faith.
The United States of America needs to apologize for perceived injustices to a “Religion”* that practices slavery, feminine mutilation, child exploitation and molestation, human trafficking, piracy as well as sponsoring and championing the extermination of a race of people; not to mention forced marriages, repression of women, censorship of dissenting speech and outlawing of other religious faiths.
* read “cult of death”
Social Advisor at Mustansiriya University, Saman Ali said, “The phenomenon of marrying minors involves ‘physically raping them’. A girl involved in an early marriage will miss out on her childhood. It will also make her an aggressive mother.”
Makes sense in a sick way. Terrorize the female child by cultural approved rape. Then when the young girl gives birth to a baby girl she is then pychologically conditioned to expect and accept the same kind of treatment. When young girl gives birth to baby boy he is terrorized by an “aggressive” and abusive teen mother. He then grows up with a seething hatred for females in general and is ready to begin the cycle all over again by committing culturally approved rape on another generation of prepubescent girls.
Disgusting.
Mr. Hussein, what negative stereotypes? I have read what Muslims have said, and have seen what they have done and I am pretty sure that the opinion that I have formed is exactly what they want me think about them. With one exception: I am not scared of them. Your administration, however, does make me fearful for the future of my country.
This happens in America all the time. Obozo said so.
Pray for America and the Truth
BLOODY SAVAGES!!

Life’s cheap, children are expendable.
Another example of the beacon of hope our President says has offered the world so much.
Anyone interested in the truth about Islamic Law and Jiahd, and how it is a main stream of the belief system and not something a small group of them has perverted, should get and read the book:
"The Legacy of Jihad," by Andrew G. Bostom.
Make sure your read the entire Preface and Forward. The book is absolutely critical in understanding the true aims of Islam as moved forward by Mohammed, its historical precedent, and what a danger regimes like the one in Iran, Palestine, Syria, and elsewheree represent to us all, our way of life, our liberty, and our very life.
Thanks to noumenon for pointing me to this book...please consider getting one...getting several (I do) and passing them around.

“...not to mention the other ‘darker’ reasons.”
One such reason is that Islam approves of child marriages because their ‘prophet Mad MO, married a child.
ISlam was accurately described, including this “dark side” issue in the following:
“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.
A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property - either as a child, a wife, or a concubine - must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die. But the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world.
Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science - the science against which it had vainly struggled - the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.”
~A passage from his book “The River War” written by Sir Winston Churchill in 1899 after he had participated in the Sudanese campaign.
