Note to readers: As my friend Citizen Warrior says,, the pictures we are going to show you are very painful to look at.

I cried for days,, seeing these women with their beautiful faces ruined, by these PERVERTED, WEAK, BARBARIC Men.

Be warned,, it will HURT you to look at these women,, I have been wounded permanantly, after seeing them.


I posted this story also afew months ago, and time has NOT healed my broken heart, over this BARBARISM!!!

Conversation Pieces


Posted: 12 Jan 2010 01:54 PM PST


WHEN YOU ARE
sharing what you know about
Islam's relentless encroachment on the free world, it often helps to have something compelling to share. Below are two
shareable items to use in your
campaign
to influence your friends and family.


The first was sent to me by a friend in
Hawaii
, entitled "Terrorism That's Personal." It is a set of 12
professional photographs of Muslim women who have been horribly scarred
by acid thrown on their face. The damage done to these women is terrible
to see. Shocking.


Nicholas Kristof, one of the creators
of the
Girl Effect and a New
York Times op-ed columnist, traveled to Pakistan last year. He wrote:
"I’ve been investigating such acid attacks, which are commonly used to
terrorize and subjugate women and girls in a swath of Asia from
Afghanistan through Cambodia (men are almost never attacked with acid).
Because women usually don’t matter in this part of the world, their
attackers are rarely prosecuted and acid sales are usually not
controlled. It’s a kind of terrorism that becomes accepted as part of
the background noise in the region."


If you have have the stomach for it,
view the pictures
here. And share them with people you know. But
when you do, make sure you give them
some practical actions they can take to do something about
it
. Whenever you horrify someone,
give them something they can do
about it. It is unkind to do otherwise. With that in mind, here are the
photographs:
12 Images.

If those images don't motivate
someone to want to stop the atrocities, I don't know what will. I also
recommend you read and share Nicholas Kristof's original article:
Terrorism That's Personal.

The second item I want to share with
you is from one of my favorite columnists, Phyllis Chesler. In a recent
article, she wrote:


The other day, a twenty-year-old woman was
sold at an open auction in Badani Bhutto, Pakistan. Her brothers
divided up the money. No one condemned this shameless and abominable
act.

It is an act that haunts me.

For a long time now,
similar kinds of people (yes, mainly Muslims) have invaded — no,
immigrated to — Europe, where they have continued to engage in
polygamy, arranged child marriage, forced veiling of women,
honor-related violence, including honor murders (17,000 honor-related
crimes of violence have been estimated to occur annually in the UK
alone), and female genital mutilation. According to my new (and about
to be published) study, honor murders in Europe are especially savage
— even more so than in developing Muslim
countries.

You can read the rest of her article
here:
Battling Against the Islamification of the World.

These two shareable items demonstrate
the need to give women and girls human rights in Islamic countries. The
situation is urgent, and anyone with normal human feelings will
immediately know something needs to be done.


If you're talking to a friend who doesn't
want to hear about Islam, simply direct them to the
Girl
Effect
or share with them the book,
Half
the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women
Worldwide
. Your friend's efforts to
empower women and protect girls will help curb
Islam's ultimate goal,
and it will be effective even if your friend never learns a thing about
Islam.

Read more about how to influence your friends:
Think
Small Bits and Long Campaigns
.

At the back of
Half
the Sky
is a short section called Four Steps You Can Take in the Next Ten
Minutes
that has practical things you can do right now to help
empower women. It has been reproduced online here:
Four Steps.
