Yeah so I know this is a step away from the largely domestic issues posted in this forum but I read this online and thought it was pretty cool. I think we Americans can always appreciate another group standing up to authority figures. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/16/world/asia/16afghan.html?ref=world
Well equal rights are naturally only something whores would demand, that is obvious I think there is something in their mindset that scares them of women having equal rights as men, that they think they will loose authority over it. That they will, ofcourse. And it scares the living shit out of them. Thus also the rather disingenous argumentation and obvious hatred. They cannot make any rational denial of equal rights, so they react predictably with denial, and as is often so in islam, violently so. Why enter to a dialogue, when one can more easily intimidate the opposition to submission. It is no accident, that islam literally means submission.
