- What is agonizing is
that people either enjoyed or criticized the joyful act of a
teenager, but no one seems to be noticing that this public
trial and her forced apologies only mean further isolation for
the young Muslim women.
- Most horrifying is
that it seems that even the West has started to buy into the
version of "modesty" that these extremists in the
Middle East have been forcing on women.
- Why has no one --
especially politicized, self-absorbed women's groups -- come
to help? Instead, as in the recent Women's March, they have
been advocating for more women's imprisonment.
- It is important for
as many people as possible, both in Britain and world-wide, to
say how much they love her beautiful spirit and that they
totally stand by her right to dance, sing, play or have fun.
An image from the video "Right to choose:
Spotting the signs of forced marriage - Nayana", produced by
the UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office. In 2013, 1,302 victims of
forced marriage sought help from the British government's Forced
Marriage Unit.
The growth
in systematic abuse of women, especially by Islamists in the West,
requires democratic governments to introduce strong measures to
stop this abuse, before abusive mullahs start harassing women of
all faiths, to force them to submit to their wishes.
The recent
threats and harassment of a British "Hijabi girl" by
Islamists in Birmingham, England, merely for a video showing her
dance, have re-exposed the ugly face of this autocratic mindset
that owes its existence to extremist states such as Saudi Arabia
and Iran.
Enslaving
women in general and inflicting repressive agendas -- such as
domestic violence, sexual abuse, segregation, allowing no say in
choosing a partner, education or profession, with abysmal living
standards often part of the abuse -- is just a small measure of the
jihad that the Islamists have managed to unleash across the globe.
