Islamic Treatment of Women Apartheid: Muslim Woman Writes

Story here.
(CNSNews.com) - Malaysia is considered one of the most moderate nations in the Muslim world, but the daughter of a former prime minister has sparked a row by comparing discrimination against Muslim women in her country with the treatment of black South Africans under apartheid.

"As non-Muslim women catch up with women in the rest of the world, Muslim women here are only going backwards," Marina Mahathir wrote in a newspaper column.


Read it all, of course.

My question: what do the leftists of the Free World think of how Islam treats women?

Do they realize... do they have information... that women are badly treated all over the Islamic world? And if they know how terrible life is for Muslim women living under oppressive Islamic theocratic rule, do they care? Do they care that women in the Free World have wonderful freedoms and rights and equality and more while women in Islamic nations are actually regularly the victims of extremely brutal violence from men as a matter of the dogmas of the faith?

I'd predict the left would deny all of this. I doubt if they've "been told" by their leaders or their peers... I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Western leftists actually have been led to believe that Muslim women the world over have pretty much the same freedoms, equality, rights, etc. as do Western women.

What do leftists know? What do they think? Are they consistent? Do they have integrity regarding this issue?

Also, why does the left so vociferously support Islamofascism?

If the left should demand proof... let them. It's readily available, if they have the motivation to use Google or Yahoo! Of course, there's no shortage of folks who would be eager to show the truth to the truth-challenged left.

Together we must stand against Islamofascism as well as all other forms of fascism the world over which are the true enemies of freedom, democracy, the rule of law, civilization and humanity itself.
