The Burka is not even Islamic..its cultural...so of course it is oppressive.

Read it when I saw it linked on a blog I read (Ali Eteraz's). I was gonna post it here, but then figured "Why bother?" I even asked him why he linked to it.

She's not saying anything particularly enlightening and she says something offensive every other line.

Another blogger wrote their thoughts about it here:

You'd think she would have researched the topic before making a fool out of herself. Everything she knows about islam she seems to have gotten from the movie "Not Without My Daughter" and I guess she filled in the blanks with her own assumptions

You know... if you actually watch the credits for that movie - you see name after name like: David Goldstein, Adi Spitzzerman, Avrum Shalom etc etc

Way to go guys, not reinforcing any stereotypes there


Anyway, I'm hoping that nobody here is actually taking what that woman did seriously - she did it with a specific end objective, and if she's riling you up, she's achieved it.

I doubt anyone is taking her seriously; her articles were full of personal attacks and baseless assumptions. The only thing she achieved was making herself look like an ignorant bigot, and we've all seen plenty of those. I got a few laughs out of it though *shrug*

Why does she keep saying Islamic women?
It's Muslim. Muslim women.

Is that really so hard to grasp?
