According
to religions, Islam and Islamic states, women are seen to be the source of
fitnah or affliction.
Today,
we establish Fitnah - Movement for Women’s Liberation.
Fitnah is a protest movement
demanding freedom, equality, and secularism and calling for an end to
misogynist cultural, religious and moral laws and customs, compulsory veiling,
sex apartheid, sex trafficking, and violence against women.
We
remind the Islamic regime of Iran and Islamists everywhere that the women’s
liberation movement is a source of fitnah for their rule alone.
We
are Islamism’s worst fitnah!
