And Death to America.
No wonder barry is all lovey dovey with not trying to offend the Muslim men by exposing their female possessions to the outside world. After all we might see the scars of growing up female with a bunch of worthless pieces of garbage who like to rape women and then stone them for allowing it to happen. He doesn’t want to risk the wrath of retaliation France is experiencing now.
Al-Qaeda’s North Africa wing threatened on Tuesday to take revenge on France for its opposition to the burka, calling on Muslims to retaliate against the country, the US monitoring service SITE Intelligence reported.
Earlier this month, President Nicolas Sarkozy said the burka, which covers the whole face, was not welcome in the strictly secular country.
“Yesterday was the hijab (the Islamic headscarf long banned in French schools) and today, it is the niqab (the full veil),” Abu Musab Abdul Wadud, head of Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb was quoted as saying.
“We will take revenge for the honour of our daughters and sisters against France and against its interests by every means at our disposal.”
The group also called on Muslims to retaliate for what it called French “hostility” against the community and its attempt to obstruct Islam’s practice on its territory.
I wonder when barry will attack France to defend the Muslim worlds right to screw women over.
This issue with the burqa is but the tip of the iceburg. It is a little known fact that the women from these territories controlled by radical Islam are not even allowed the faintest shred of dignity… such as the right to sing!
I have been blogging a series on the ones who dare to…. the exiles and the honor killing. This is part five:

France has a right to stand up to this. They are, in fact, receiving the exiles. As are some Scandinavian countries. Like Norway.
Obama’s attempts at placating radical Islam have amounted to one big FAIL! It’s time to move on… and back France, Norway, and any other country that is giving amnesty to these women in exile. (Whose lives are still under threat, I might add.)
“We will take revenge for the honour of our daughters and sisters against France and against its interests by every means at our disposal.”
Tha audacity of these tyrants! To suggest that what they are doing is for the sake of their daughters and sisters.
Makes me sick.
I sure liked Sarkozy’s statement on the matter:
“In our country, we cannot accept that women be prisoners behind a screen, cut off from all social life, deprived of all identity. The burqa is not a religious sign, it’s a sign of subservience, a sign of debasement – I want to say it solemnly. It will not be welcome on the territory of the French Republic.”
I was pleasantly surprised by Sarkozy’s statement and not at all surprised by Al-Qaeda’s. Interesting that Sarkozy would make such a statement so soon after Obama’s “women have the right to wear a hijab.”
“the day that French President speaks morality, and an American President speaks realpolitik is an incredibly sad day. “
From Lou Dobbs interview with Fouad Ajami
It sure was good to hear Sarkozy speak so bluntly about this and wish Obama would have the balls to do the same. Instead, he cow-tows to the radical Muslims and gives speeches about how terrible we Americans are. When in the world will our country wake up to this disaster of a President we have?
(Sorry about my long absence from the blogs…I’ve been crazy busy at home. I miss hanging out here.
)
Glad you’re here Mary Ellen, I haven’t been here much lately either.
Mary is tickled that you’re both here.
The left’s agenda has always been to take us (American middle class) down. This is entirely seperate from the liberal agenda, which the left has been digusing itself as. Example #1; the sham known as Obama.
I’m thinking France is pretty much off the Young Prez’s radar — he has different fish to filet.
DE, are you back from vacation? Hope you had a nice time. I loved Sarkozy’s speech. It was the opposite of barry’s. Figures.
Still in IN annie. We should be back home, Tuesday after we go to Atlanta. We went on a tour of Kokomo glass today. Saw some stained glass sheets being made, it was very cool.
Indiana is beautiful this time of year.
I have an old (50’s or 60’s) red carnival glass pitcher that I love that was made by an Indiana glass co. Sounds like a great trip. I hope you both are thoroughly enjoying yourselves!
the Iranian revolution was about women wearing Western dress. the Shah liked to see a little leg. Ayatollah K not so much. Barky would prolly like to relive 80’s. Our military was being jerked around all over Europe, N. Africa & Middle East responding to terrorist attacks while Barfo was kicking back with a doobie. oh yeah forgot he cut his teeth in foreign policy smoking hashish in Pokiestahn. so now he’ll fire up his brother Mohammedans for a little fun. mfr.
intense debate going on in Saudi Arabia on whether girls should play sports. Prince Khaled al-Faisal gives the strongest endorsement. from a Saudi newspaper clip:
A statement issued by three senior clerics last month lashed out at Saudis who demand the opening of more gyms for women, saying such a move would “open the doors wide for spreading decadence.”
“It is well-known that only women with no shame will go to these clubs,” said the statement signed by clerics Abdul-Rahman al-Barrack, Abdul-Aziz al-Rajihi and Abdullah bin Jibrin.
In a recent column in Al-Watan newspaper, Sheik Abdullah al-Mani, an adviser at the royal court, said virgins should think twice before engaging in sports.
“Soccer or basketball require running and jumping and these could damage (a woman’s) the hymen,” he wrote. “If she marries, her husband will … think that her hymen was destroyed as a result of an (immoral) action.”
“He will either divorce her or lose confidence in her chastity,” he added.
His words triggered an angry response from Al-Watan columnist Haleema Muthafar.
“I’d like to ask the sheikh, “If in his opinion the hymen is the reason why girls should not engage in sports, what about married women? What’s to stop them?” she wrote.

omg. these people (the clerics) are really sick bastards. I feel so badly for the women who are trapped in that hellhole.
When will this country wake up and look at what they put into office as president of our America? What do the people need to spark some attention to the fake deciding our lives?

for “conservative” clerics these friggin old hajis seem to know an awful lot about what’s under a burqa. must be what Barfo was referring to when he spoke of the great contributions of Muslims to society- thousands of years of advanced research on hymen.
“thousands of years of advanced research on hymen.”
