#2 I wonder what the impotence rate among arab men is.
I bet it's really high, what with all the burqas, wife beating and general low self-esteem issues that pervade the arab psyche.

#3 Power is an aphrodisiac. Muslim men have little power in their everyday lives. Just think about how rarely they could get their little soldiers to stand at attention if their had no power over women.

A side note: Jihad gives muslims a sense of power. With Mo-man's giving them license, it's little wonder they are raping rabbits in Africa, South Asia, Caucasus, Balkins and horny little pricks visiting prostitutes and strip clubs in the west.

#4 Excellent article, Taslima Nasrin. You found your voice, God bless ya. There are only two things missing from your last paragraph:

"What should women do? They should protest against this discrimination. They should proclaim a war against the wrongs and ill-treatment meted out to them for hundreds of years. They should snatch from the men their freedom and their rights. They should throw away this apparel of discrimination and burn their burqas."

The first thing to do is for every woman you know to buy a gun and plenty of bullets. Then you and your sisters will be REALLY ready to live a fully autonomous life, for when the vice squads and rabid family members come to force submission and honor on you, you will be able to "persuade" them that you ain't going back.

#5 AIMPLB wants Taslima thrown out of India

NEW DELHI: Controversial Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen's article in national weekly, Outlook , criticising the wearing of the veil by women has drawn the ire of the All-India Muslim Personal Law Board, which on Thursday said she should be thrown out of the country.

Taslima should be thrown out of the country, AIMPLB member Kamal Farooqi said. The article written by her in Outlook was derogatory and outrageous.

Farooqi also said the AIMPLB will soon approach the external affairs ministry to ask that Taslima be thrown out of India. The author has been living in India ever since she fled Bangladesh in 1994 after having received death threats for her novel Lajja .

Taslima, in an article entitled, Let's burn the Burqa , criticised the wearing of veils and asked Muslim women to throw away this apparel of discrimination and burn their burqas .

Taslima's article was written with the intention of hurting Muslim sentiments and was highly objectionable, he further said.

#6 Muslim women should emigrate to the West. Muslim men should be expelled from the West. After that the problems with Islam will sort itself out within a generation.

#7 Jules has a good point. I recommend keeping the bag but dumping the full-cover hood. Muslim control freaks will still object, but if a burka can be used to hide a guy, it can be used to hide a pistol.

Well, that or maybe you should, Kamal. Your treatment of women is derogatory and outrageous.
