Feminist ignore Middle East Misogyny

Muslim men are using the unrest in Libya and Egypt as an excuse to sexually assault Muslim women and U.S. journalists. Yet Western feminists remain scandalously quiet.

How many more stories of gang rapes and beatings must they hear before they break their deafening silence and condemn such Islamic misogyny?

The latest savagery involves a 26-year-old Libyan woman bound and raped by 15 men in Tripoli. The government claims she's a "prostitute," but her family says she's a law student.

Earlier, Libyan thugs abducted and sexually abused a New York Times photographer over two days. While she was tied up, they punched her in the face.

But this pales next to the heinous public attack on "60 Minutes" correspondent Lara Logan by the "freedom-loving" troglodytes in Tahrir Square, Cairo.

A mob of men separated her from her crew, stripped her, whipped her with flagpoles and repeatedly sexually assaulted her for at least 30 minutes while hundreds watched and jeered "American bitch!" Logan was hospitalized for five days.

Some reports now say the assault lasted three hours.

Would a crowd of 200 American men stand by and cheer such an assault on a Muslim woman in a public square in our capital? Never. But in Egypt, which is notorious for sexual harassment of foreign women, this is accepted behavior.

Egyptian women aren't immune from it. The few who dared join the protests in Tahrir Square were rounded up by Egyptian police and subjected to "virginity tests." Those who failed the tests were beaten and given electric shocks.

...
There is more.

Feminism is not really about women's rights as it is an excuse to push liberalism. These women are just like the civil rights groups who refuse to dome to the defense of conservative blacks when they are attacked in a racist manner. They are just another liberal front group made up of hypocrites.

  1. Yep, I wonder where all the feminists have gone.
    In the poorest most hostile regions of the world, women are suffering, from radical fundamentalist Political Islam. Every aspect of women’s lives, from birth to adulthood is adversely affected by discrimination including prohibition of education, lack of health care, no rights to property, denial of citizenship or nationality, and under-employment.
    All of these factors contribute of poverty.
