#2 The tide will turn against radical Islam in the Middle East with the emergence of freedoms for women. Wars will be waged and ideologies argued, but until the women of the Middle East deny and destroy the patriarcal and abusive traditions that oppress them in disgusting and pathetic ways, no paradigm shift can take place.

The USA should be encouraging (read: actively FUNDING, training, supporting, etc) any and all womens advocacy groups opposed to radical Islam.

God help these women through the tough road ahead. The dangers at hand are as numerous as the opportunities that await them.

#4 Morocco is not Saudi Arabia or Algeria: her king is supposed to be a descendent of Muhammad so he doesn't need to play the "more Muslim than thou" game, in addition unlike the Seoud he doesn't have a financial and political interest in promoting Islamism. By the way some ten years ago I heard an old Moroccan praising those Moroccans who had helped Jews during WWII and telling "Who saves a man saves the entire humankind" a sentence found in Talmud and Koran.

#5 So-called "womens's rights" groups are generally left-leaning and I don't recall many of them demonstrating against Radical Islam or Mid-east dictators, especially since Bush is in charge.

What is the position of Islam on abortion? Is abortion legal or allowed in these countries in question?

#6 I believe abortion is illegal, except in cases where the parents aren't closely enough related...

#11 Heh. Well if abortion is illegal, I'm sure the "women's rights" crowd has been striving to change Islam into accepting it. Right?
