Nothing, and I mean nothing is too petty for Islamists..

ABU-DHABI, August 31- Saudi Arabia's religious police are insisting that authorities of Medina, one of Islam's holiest cities, should build separate sidewalks for women, the Kuwaiti Al-Qabas newspaper said Friday.

The country's Committee for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice (CPVPV), tasked with enforcing Sharia law, believes men and women should not be allowed to mix on the streets of the Islam's second holiest place, where the Prophet Muhammad is buried.

The clerical police, or Mutaween, are authorized to arrest unrelated men and women caught socializing, anyone suspected of being homosexual or a prostitute, and to enforce Islamic dress codes.

The Mutaween enforce Islamic female dress codes, ordering women to wear headscarves and abayas, long black dresses covering the whole body except for face, hands and feet. Women are not allowed to leave their houses without their husbands or immediate male relatives.

Apartheid.

Male/Female--Muslim/Non-Muslim

Human Rights, anyone?

We will hear from the feminists in...........................................................Oh, wait, they don't bother fighting for the women who are really being oppressed. It is easier to bully western companies and men than to take on the real abusers of women.

What a bunch of wackos. How much longer are people going to ignore the fact Islam is an oppressive, bigoted, backwards religion and Muhammed was a nutjob? Anyone following the laws of Islam is a nutjob too.

You know, you read stuff like this day in and day out and you have to wonder...if you were a woman in Saudi Arabia, giving birth to your first child and it's a baby girl...your eyes must fill with tears. Tears of sorrow for your little one, not tears of joy.

Oh, good grief... maybe the Islamists will find some way to harvest female eggs, grow babies in test tubes..and then just kill off all the women so they won't have to deal with them anymore.


Why are people so blinded by the media and their own prejiduces that they choose not to open their hearts and minds?

I am a muslim woman, my daughter is applying to georgetown and/or north western next semester. I choose to wear the abaya (the black cloak)and head scarf and I have posted my reasons in response to a similarly bias comment on http://www.settingtheworldtorights.com/node/47
alongside a canadian non muslim womans comment who also chooses to wear the abaya there she writes a poignant point of view you may be interested to read.

I have been to Almedina many times and I can personally attest that the aforementioned article im replying to now, is not true....unless one of you has also been there and has first hand knowledge as i do, then kindly refrain from knee jerk assumtions and judgements.

Another very important request is that kindly refrain from insultive derrogatory comments and words spoken of our religon Islam and the prophet, you may notice that we do not insult other religons, mainly because it is against our beliefs to insult anyone and moreover because we belive in all the messengers par example :- from Adam through to Noah, Moses, Jesus, Jacob, Isacc, Abraham, Ismael, John the babtist, Jonah etc right up to Sayida Mohammed the last and final prophet, peace be upon them all

Peace to all
Alanood Qatar

We dont buy your bs......taqiyaa

Alanood Qatar demonstrated her disbelief in Jesus Christ, and
reinforced islam's blasphemies against Him, the only name under
heaven by which man may be saved, by equating him with the false
prophet mohammed, who is not the last of the fakes, but one of
the many false prophets and false christs who Jesus Christ
warned against. (insert additional punctuation to taste).

There is a war in progress, Alanood, but not against flesh and
blood - it is taking place in the high places, and its outcome
is known. False prophets such as mohammed, and their followers,
will be defeated, and Jesus Christ will return to Earth to reign
for 1,000 years.

After Mo the blasphemer and false prophet carked it, he went to
await his judgement, where his unfortunate followers will join
him, if they do not repent of their sins, and accept God's free
gift of salvation and eternal life through Jesus Christ.

Clock is ticking, Alanood.

Maranatha!

* Another very important request is that kindly refrain from insultive derrogatory comments and words spoken of our religon Islam and the prophet

BTW, Alanood, your false prophet did not "refrain from insultive derrogatory comments", but is on the record as saying the following,
among other things ...

"Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians as your friends ...
Whoever of you seeks their friendship shall become one of their
number. Allah does not guide the wrongdoers". Sura 5:51

And your fellow muslims are seen carrying blasphemous placards
that state "Jesus is the slave of allah" (etc). God will forgive
them, but only on the basis of the shed blood of the very same
Jesus Christ that they blaspheme against.

Geesh i'am not suprised these guys are segregationists
