Cathyf is on to something re the perversions in cults…it is an old, old theme of the Arabs, though.

There is simply no way the Shi’ite govt is going to allow for anything in Iraq other than Sharia Law. In that respect, it’s not a safe place for women or children.

The University of Toronto is now teaching Sharia Law. It would be funny if it weren’t so grotesque and Orwellian.

Canada Shoots Itself in the Foot. Again.

I plan a post on the Iraqi constitution but so far have procrastinated since it’s so depressing.

Ali Hirsi is amazingly admirable. I think she survived because she had a good strong dad, and when she got to the Netherlands, she found a woman to be her mentor and with great focus and initiative, used her escape to make a difference. I’d love to see the biography they’ll do some day. She’s a complex, intelligent woman under great pressure. The women’s movement in the Netherlands disses her all the time.
