It was a land grab and control issue all along ... and it lines right up with the Agenda 21 intiatives of the UN and the many enviro NGO's that are supporting it.
Prayers going up for Aunt Nettie. And, for YOU. I hope you get to feeling better!
Yeah. I chalk this one woman up to a "stopped clock right twice a day" sort of thing. She was doing work on the lives of Muslim women (searching for more patriarchal oppression to write about, you know, and the muslim world is rich earth to dig in) and commented in her intro about Saddam Hussein cutting out people's tongues and drilling into their kneecaps with power drills, or something along those lines.
Of course, now that we've liberated Afghanistan she's probably writing about our "Western aggression" and how "ripping off" these veils is yet another form of oppression and so forth and so on. It is apparently not yet time for the second half of the "twice a day" maxim.
Bet'cha you ain't the first unbiased grandpa to make such an assertion...MUD
... and again, thanks for your very kind words about me. It was great replying to everyone yesterday.
Fregrds and God's best to you and yours.
Best and most honored regards,
Mike
