No I am not, I am a conservative and I have been assaulted, and this issue cuts deep, I don’t care what station she works for, what political affiliations she has, or whether she is liberal or conservative,

this is just absolutely horrific what this women has been through, have some compassion.

As long as men read and believe the Qur'an, women will be despised, second-class citizens, subject to the heartbreak and dehumanization of polygamy, easy divorce, confinement to home, and worse, including beatings, rape, false accusations, and the loss of virtually all of the most basic of human freedoms. And female infidels are at an even greater risk.

These are not phenomena of a group, party, organization or anything so ephemeral. They are the consequences of regarding the Qur'an as the absolute, eternally valid, and perfect word of Allah. As long as men take the unchangeable Qur'an at face value, women will be at risk.

Lara Logan, having worked many years in the ME was, no doubt, fully aware of this, especially the attitudes of muslim men towards women. Yet she ignored it and persisted in putting herself in harm's way.

No matter how we feel about the brutality of the perpetrators, or the stupidity of the victim, the real cause of this tragedy lies in the wretched teachings of the Qur'an.
