Female human rights in Moslem cultures
Responding here to this “thread” title (in “links”), these two phrases, “female human rights” and “Muslim cultures” are in many instances mutually exclusive.
Context: The most populous “Muslim” nation, Indonesia, in its key document affirms its creation and status as a non-Muslim nation. Perhaps that’s why Indonesia seems not a breeding ground for Islamafascist terrorist murderers.
In stark contrast, “Muslim” nations like Iran and Saudi Arabia intentionally deny unalienable human rights to females. The intentional tolerance of this female-enslaving culture in Western nations, carried out under the guise of “multiculturalism”, sows seeds for the destruction of these nations’ democracies from within. To tolerate evil is to support evil, whether that evil be “secular”, “religious”, or “cultural.”
Snowyflake is “on it”, committed to doing all she knows how to do to break the chains of slavery which allow Muslim women in “Muslim” nations to be raped, tortured, hacked into pieces, executed by hit squads on the streets (a common taliban action), tortured, imprisoned in their own homes and in state-supported prisons, stoned to death, and subjected to other nearly unspeakable and unconscionable acts of state-endorsed violence.

It is common for things which are not properly understood to be condemned. Perhaps a quick study of the People under discussion would be a useful preliminary to informed debate.

A “quick discussion” does not rescue Muslim women facing violence right now.

Wow! What's the right name for a Christian Jihad?
Did you know that Muslims think that our habit of keeping dogs as domestic pets is indescribably filthy? They are totally repelled by the idea.

Wow! What pertinence does “the right name for a Christian Jihad” have to the quest by Muslim women to “break the shackles” of female-enslaving “Muslim” cultures, which allow Muslim women to be raped, tortured, hacked into pieces, executed by hit squads on the streets, imprisoned in their own homes and in state-supported hell holes, stoned to death, and mutilated, maimed, and murdered by other unconscionable acts of state-endorsed brutality?

Perhaps this is also because some “Muslim” societies beat the holy crap out of their domestic pet women if ever these domestic pet Homo sapiens females forget their rightful places. In the US or UK, beating the holy crap out of one’s disobedient domestic pet dog is animal cruelty, a felony crime. In Saudi Arabia, beating the holy crap out of one’s disobedient domestic pet Homo sapiens female is expected and applauded.

I’m posting these links to two charities at the request of Snowyflake, one of our members:-
Violence is Not our Culture (VNC): http://www.violenceisnotourculture.org/
Equality Now: http://www.equalitynow.org/
Both organisations exist to educate people about the human rights of women and girls living in Moslem countries, and to take action against abuses against women and girls in these cultures. This includes writing letters and emails to governments to stop stoning women for sexual 'crimes', female genital mutilation, physical and sexual abuse and rape victims being criminalised.
There is a real campaign by Moslem women to change the culture from inside, and to educate the men and ruling figures in those cultures that women and girls have a meaningful role in life and have value in their own right.

I have tried to persuade Mrs Hornby to walk several paces behind me when I allow her to accompany me on a day out, but she seems to have this notion that she is an equal and, indeed, asserted this to me most recently when I was washing up the dishes after dinner last night...

The BBC went to Afghanistan to find out how the women were coping with the concept of equality. The reportre was shocked to find they still walked several paces behind the men. When she asked why it was still happening the one word reply was "Landmines".

One of the people most referenced as the author of this quote is Sir Thomas Browne, an English physician, writer and theologian:
“But how shall we expect charity towards others, when we are uncharitable to ourselves? ‘Charity begins at home,’ is the voice of the world;” – Sir Thomas Browne, 1642
It was also said by other famous writers and theologians:
“‘Charity should begin at himself.” – John Wycliffe 1383
“Charity begins at home, and justice begins next door.” – Charles Dickens, 1844
It has no more legal effect than, "Be good to your mother", but has a similar validity.

As regards US Law, absence of legislation does not infer either support or rejection of a proposition.
Incorrect use of the word "command" which is, in the context above, a Noun, not an imperative, whilst
the expression Charity begins at home is neither a Command nor an imperative.

The difference here, OW, is that the United States has laws against domestic violence, and you WILL go to jail if convicted. The government does not sentence women to 40 lashes or a beheading if they are caught in public with a man who is not her immediate relative. Take the case of an elderly woman who had milk delivered to her door every day by a male second cousin. This horrible crime was discovered and this old woman was thrown in prison for it.In the USA there are 1.3 million reported incidents of domestic violence annually.
Now, in any country, there will be men who beat their wives, but that is an individual choice, not a governmental or religious mandate. In America, women can vote, drive cars, walk around with their hair uncovered, hold jobs, serve in the military, go to college, and are protected by strict (sometimes TOO strict) laws regarding their treatment. In North Carolina, there is a law against assault ... but there is also a separate law in regards to a male hitting a female. The latter carries a stiffer penalty than the former. A male being charged with "assault against a female" will still be in jail when the other assault convicts are set free.
I really don't believe much in moral relativism. I do believe there are certain moral absolutes including murder, torture, involuntary captivity (kidnapping), rape, and pedophilia to name a few. Those acts should be universally condemned by ALL cultures regardless of custom, tradition, or religion. Should we begin to accept such wanton acts of cruelty and oppression as simply the way another culture does things, then we would be hard pressed to condemn even such travesties as the Holocaust without falling into depraved hypocrisy.

Your grammar lesson conclusively affirms the non-imperative nature of the insipid, inappropriate saying (“Charity begins at Home”) first posted hereon by you on Friday 6 July 2012 at 9:24 and defended hereon by you on Friday 6 July 2012 at 10:53.

Taliban publicly execute woman near Kabul to cheers of jubilation from watching men
By Hamid Shalizi and Amie Ferris-Rotman
KABUL – Saturday, 7 July 2012, 7:04 PM BST
KABUL (Reuters) - A man Afghan officials say is a member of the Taliban shot dead a woman accused of adultery in front of a crowd near Kabul, a video obtained by Reuters showed, a sign that the austere Islamist group dictates law even near the Afghan capital.
In the three-minute video, a turban-clad man approaches a woman kneeling in the dirt and shoots her five times at close range with an automatic rifle, to cheers of jubilation from the 150 or so men watching in a village in Parwan province.
"Allah warns us not to get close to adultery because it's the wrong way," another man says as the shooter gets closer to the woman. "It is the order of Allah that she be executed".
… [this public punishment] raised concern about the treatment of Afghan women 11 years into the NATO-led war against Taliban insurgents.
When the unnamed woman, most of her body tightly wrapped in a shawl, fell sideways after being shot several times in the head, the spectators chanted: "Long live the Afghan mujahideen! (Islamist fighters)", a name the Taliban use for themselves.

__________________________________________________________________________________________
Citizens of the United Kingdom (British citizens): The problem is at your doorstep; taliban run rampant in Pakistan, your former colony, and Pakistani nationals import this heinous behavior into your island nation with explicit and implicit approval of those who, on the flimsy premises of “multi-culturalism” and “cultural tolerance”, would excuse immorality.
Fellow citizens of the United States: If we continue to hide our heads, this immorality will be upon us “directly.”

QUOTE Alexander Pope's An essay on criticism, 1709:
Such shameless Bards we have; and yet 'tis true,
There are as mad, abandon'd Criticks too.
The Bookful Blockhead, ignorantly read,
With Loads of Learned Lumber in his Head,
With his own Tongue still edifies his Ears,
And always List'ning to Himself appears.
All Books he reads, and all he reads assails,
From Dryden's Fables down to Durfey's Tales.
With him, most Authors steal their Works, or buy;
Garth did not write his own Dispensary.
Name a new Play, and he's the Poet's Friend,
Nay show'd his Faults - but when wou'd Poets mend?
No Place so Sacred from such Fops is barr'd,
Nor is Paul's Church more safe than Paul's Church-yard:
Nay, fly to Altars; there they'll talk you dead;
For Fools rush in where Angels fear to tread.
Such shameless Bards we have; and yet 'tis true,
There are as mad, abandon'd Criticks too.

Female human rights in Moslem cultures
Every time this type of discussion is promoted, the same short quotation from The Holy Bible pops into my tiny mind.
"When they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her." John 8:7"
A modern version makes it even clearer:
Romans 2:1 You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do similar things.

Your repeated failure to use your well-honed communicative skills to publicize heinous crimes routinely perpetrated upon Muslim women by Muslim males provides compelling evidence of your disinclination to do so, thus, in my opinion, providing conclusive evidence that you feel no compassion for vulnerable Muslim women who are raped, tortured, maimed, and murdered by Muslim males in Muslim nations.

Compassion? Of course. We hardly need more examples of Man's inhumanity.
But responsibility? None.

Perhaps, for some, one has to be female to understand why these atrocities committed by the radical Muslims can be so upsetting?
Often Wrong, here are a few things to consider.
First of all, murder is murder. It is universally condemned regardless of culture or national origin. That girl was most assuredly murdered, ergo, it matters not what national border divides us. We can and should condemn it. This is not about the United States or being American. It is about being human, one and all.
Secondly, there have been enough Brits on this board critical of some American states still using the death penalty. IF what you say is true, then you have no more right to judge Americans than Americans have to judge Muslims. IF "it is not for [you] to dictate how others should behave," then you should not only never again criticize the death penalty in other countries, you should also remind your British friends that it is inappropriate to complain about American domestic policy whenever an American state carries out an execution. Except you haven't done this which suggests to me that there is an ulterior motive behind your posts in this thread.
Thirdly, your logic is dangerous and apathetic. If one lived by your ideology, I would be required to turn a blind eye to any type of abuse, atrocity, or injustice by wrapping myself in that warm blanket of "it's not any of my business." Whether I see my neighbor abusing his/her child, whether I see a burglar breaking into a home, whether I see a nation committing ethnic cleansing, whether I see a second Holocaust, I would have to turn my back since it's just not up to me to dictate how others should behave.
Fourthly, in the case of this girl, not only is it murder, it is targeted murder. In other words, this was not an execution for a crime in the traditional sense. It is a method of terror that targets women specifically. Did you happen to notice the absence of the man with whom she had her affair? I certainly did. And this happens repeatedly, the criminalization of femininity. Now maybe that doesn't mean a damn to you, but it certainly does to me.
Fifthly, Rock and I are individuals. We are not governments. As such, we have the right to our opinions which means we also have the right to condemn the actions of others - including these radical Muslims. We are not ambassadors and we are not spokespeople for the United States. Whatever our government does is irrelevant to our personal opinions regarding the issue of misogynistic death sentences.
Sixthly, the so-called "bullying" of the United States has absolutely nothing to do with what happened to that girl. If the United States didn't even exist, that girl would still be lying dead, her body riddled with bullets. Why? Because their culture and their religion demands that women - not men - women be put to death for such things as adultery or wearing the wrong clothes or falling in love with the wrong person. America's foreign policy does not dictate the actions of these barbarians; this girl's execution was not a revenge attack for Western imperialism. It was upholding what I regard to be a sick and twisted homicidal culture where female life is cheaper than the dirt she was buried in - assuming she was even afforded a burial.
Now, perhaps your posts are designed to get up Rock's nose, I don't know. But I find your backhanded defense of this execution to be distasteful, and I'm sure the survivors 9/11 and the families of the victims would find it equally distasteful. Anyone who defends the wanton, indiscriminate killing of civilians regardless of who commits it, needs to see a shrink, as far as I'm concerned. Defending the execution of this girl, no matter how indirectly, is almost as heinous as the murder itself.

Do as you would be done by. That covers most differences of custom. How can anyone stand in judgment of people whose actions are incomprehensible? In the animal kingdom there is abundant evidence of disgusting and unacceptable (by our standards) dining habits. So are we to take Arms against carniverous animals?

Because we are all human and that means we are not so different from each other. I would argue that the majority of us - the vast, overwhelming majority - want peaceful lives free of war, of terror, of fear, of oppression, and of tyranny. The problem in places like Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia is that the people in control have all of that. It's the women who do not. Their actions are not necessarily incomprehensible given that even those who inflict terror would not want it inflicted back upon themselves. They know what they're doing and what the results are. They know what they're taking away from those they oppress. And we know that they behave in this fashion because they've been trained to, indoctrinated to, brainwashed to. Only severe and heavy propagandizing allows one to kill with such flagrant disregard for the life he is taking - especially for something as petty as adultery. It is not so difficult to understand. People over there need to be taught that there IS a life beyond barbarity and their culture will not disintegrate should they choose a better solution than killing young girls like cattle at a slaughterhouse.How can anyone stand in judgment of people whose actions are incomprehensible?
Animals, to the best of our knowledge, do not have the capability to take a moment's pause and analyze their actions. Animals act on instinct, like a computer program, thus they do what they do because their program tells them to do it. They cannot defy their instincts. We, on the other hand, can. In addition, animals feed to survive. They do not kill each other because a tiger cheated on its spouse or because a dog licked its butt in public. Those people kill not to survive and not because it is instinctual ... they do so because they're mired chin-deep in the worst Islam has to offer. They have been programmed to kill - yet they are still humans, they still feel, and that's what makes it all the more tragic.In the animal kingdom there is abundant evidence of disgusting and unacceptable (by our standards) dining habits.

Many of the current troubles in Africa stem from the religious zeal of Missionaries who flocked to the Dark Continent in the nineteenth century to "convert" the natives to a belief in Chistianity.
Mali Sudan and Nigeria are typical of countries now experienceing wars between Muslim and Convert that have no apparent end.
And there are "western" people stoking the flames. Shame on you.

Shirina,
Extraordinarily well articulated. In your posts of Tuesday, 10 July 2012 at 20:59 and Wednesday, 11 July 2012 at 0:40, you speak my mind, concisely, accurately, and exhaustively.
A few comments and observations “sparked” by your text follow.

I’m not female. My beloved, my mother, all of my grandmothers (natural and otherwise), all of my aunts, all of my sisters and female cousins, all of my daughters and nieces, are female. Had I seen that video and recognized one of my loved ones as the victim, no force on earth would keep me from tracking down the bastards that bestialized my loved one, if necessary, for the rest on my life, if necessary, alone.
Upsetting? To put it mildly, yes.

Perhaps you know the piece penned, I believe, by a Lutheran minister regarding the crucial role played by apathetic Germans in the extermination of six million Jews and five million Romanis, Slavs, and other “undesirables” during the Holocaust. It was first brought to my attention back on the MSNBC R&E forum by a South Carolinian gentleman who lived its message.
The text which follows challenges us all.
1624 Meditation 17: For Whom the Bell Tolls (No Man Is an Island) - John Donne
No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend's were.
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.

oftenwrong,
You’ve publicly stated this:

Compassion? Of course…
By so stating, you imply, and I correctly infer, that you have compassion for Muslim women who are brutalized by Muslim men in “Muslim culture” (quotes necessary for precise communication) prevails, including the Muslim woman in the Reuters video shot nine times in the head at near-point-blank range by a taliban bastard while assembled Muslim males voiced their approval (click for video).
An examination of all subsequent text posted by you on this thread, reposted below, fails to support your implied assertion. In fact, given the absence of the word “compassion” or any of this word’s synonyms in your subsequent text, and the overall content and tone of your subsequent text, it appears that you have no compassion whatsoever for Muslim women who are brutalized by Muslim men in “Muslim culture”, including the Muslim woman in the Reuters video shot nine times in the head at near-point-blank range by a taliban bastard while assembled Muslim males voiced their approval (click for video).

The Law of England makes female mutilation illegal, with a maximum sentence on conviction of 14 years for persons carrying out or present at, such mutilation.
If any of the over-excited contributors to this debate have evidence of any such occurence in the Country I live in, they should, obviously, inform the Police.
Endless repetitive iteration of personal distaste is unlikely to have much effect beyond the individual complaining.

The underlined text is a falsehood. The United States does not engage in a “bullying tendency” in order “to zap anyone of independent thought.”
The underlined text is off topic.

Female human rights in Moslem cultures
… “Muslim” nations like Iran and Saudi Arabia intentionally deny unalienable human rights to females. The intentional tolerance of this female-enslaving culture in Western nations, carried out under the guise of “multiculturalism”, sows seeds for the destruction of these nations’ democracies from within. To tolerate evil is to support evil, whether that evil be “secular”, “religious”, or “cultural.”
Snowyflake is “on it”, committed to doing all she knows how to do to break the chains of slavery which allow Muslim women in “Muslim” nations to be raped, tortured, hacked into pieces, executed by hit squads on the streets (a common taliban action), tortured, imprisoned in their own homes and in state-supported prisons, stoned to death, and subjected to other nearly unspeakable and unconscionable acts of state-endorsed violence.

I’m posting these links to two charities at the request of Snowyflake, one of our members:-
Violence is Not our Culture (VNC): http://www.violenceisnotourculture.org/
Equality Now: http://www.equalitynow.org/
Both organisations exist to educate people about the human rights of women and girls living in Moslem countries, and to take action against abuses against women and girls in these cultures. This includes writing letters and emails to governments to stop stoning women for sexual 'crimes', female genital mutilation, physical and sexual abuse and rape victims being criminalised.
There is a real campaign by Moslem women to change the culture from inside, and to educate the men and ruling figures in those cultures that women and girls have a meaningful role in life and have value in their own right.

Taliban publicly execute woman near Kabul to cheers of jubilation from watching men
By Hamid Shalizi and Amie Ferris-Rotman
KABUL – Saturday, 7 July 2012, 7:04 PM BST
KABUL (Reuters) - A man Afghan officials say is a member of the Taliban shot dead a woman accused of adultery in front of a crowd near Kabul, a video obtained by Reuters showed, a sign that the austere Islamist group dictates law even near the Afghan capital.
In the three-minute video, a turban-clad man approaches a woman kneeling in the dirt and shoots her five times at close range with an automatic rifle, to cheers of jubilation from the 150 or so men watching in a village in Parwan province.
"Allah warns us not to get close to adultery because it's the wrong way," another man says as the shooter gets closer to the woman. "It is the order of Allah that she be executed".
… [this public punishment] raised concern about the treatment of Afghan women 11 years into the NATO-led war against Taliban insurgents.
When the unnamed woman, most of her body tightly wrapped in a shawl, fell sideways after being shot several times in the head, the spectators chanted: "Long live the Afghan mujahideen! (Islamist fighters)", a name the Taliban use for themselves.
