#1 It is my opinion that the only thing that will save us from the Islamofacists is the Islamic women who have been given a taste of what they can be and finally rebel against the utter depravity that is Islam.

#2 Deacon-I agree.

Perhaps as more stories are told all over the world of Islamic women challenging the "order" of things, more people in non-Islamic countries will take a risk of their own-articulately and bravely confronting people who do ugly things rather than remaining mum because they fear being accused of...some thing or another-fill in the blank. It would be great to focus on the more urgent things.

Palestinian women could learn something from the women cited in this article. The day when Palestinian grandmothers, mothers, sisters and daughters band together and force a change on this petrified religion, because they're sick of early widowhood and poverty and distress AND the evil act of homicide bombing itself, could be a day where the balance shifts and it would be worth talking about our "common humanity" and mapping out a Palestinian state.

I think this story opens the window on a possibility, not just in regards to Islam. Is it possible people want to see more clearly again? I think it's hopeful because maybe that will mean that less and less we have to point out the obvious and waste our energy and time on ridiculous things, like the "torture" of having a prisoner shiver while another person is having their head sawn off, with the MSM yawning in the background after 3 days.

Well, we're not quite there yet, but I am hopeful that people are allowing some sense of proportion back into political discourse, are willing to look at things just as they are, with both eyes open.

#4 we need to purge europe of the invasion of muslims who would never had been allowed to flood our borders such as they do, without a major war.

Make no mistake it is an invasion a silent one made under the banners of being a workforce or refugees.
