Of
all the photos of my wedding day, one has always carried a particular,
unique kind of joy. It is an image not of me but of my bridesmaid, an Iraqi
refugee, throwing her bare arms gleefully into the air, her black curls
tumbling freely down her back. She had chosen the occasion of my wedding to
remove the headscarf she had worn for decades – of her own choosing, to be
clear, but with the belief that wearing it was a measure of her piety, her
integrity, her virtue.

A
full-fledged military assault on a predominantly Muslim community typically
sparks a global wave of protests, condemnation, and sometimes calls by
Islamist leaders for retaliation. This has not happened, however, with
Turkey's massive military assault on the northern Syrian border district
called "Afrin." The operation, labeled by Turkey, "Olive
Branch," was launched Jan. 17 on Turkish President Recep Tayyip
Erdogan's orders to eradicate what he calls terrorists. Turkish air force
bombings in Afrin have killed 142 Kurdish civilians and displaced 16,000
others.
