If in islam its only the odd nut abusing girls why are their jails not stormed to free all the girls on death row for dating.? And how comes they all join in the stoning. Surely if it was most muslims into peace and love and equality for girls. No girl would end up in court for sex outside marriage and if any judgweso much as sentences one day in jail let alone execution by torture ie stoning or slow strangle hanging by crane. All the other 99% of people would storm the court and jail to free the girls and kill off the eveil ailors who want to murder girls? Likewise nobody would dare force and arranged marrage or honour killing for fear of what all the nice neighbours would do to them like in the west if someone abuses a kid. And you would get happy teen coupls kissing and holding hands in public everyhwere married or not and gays too. As that does not occure surely the notion of islam supporting equality , peace and love is a total lie IE ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THEN WORDS IT MATTERS NOT WHATS IN THE BOOK BUT WHAT IS CARRIED OUT. Ans of course the muslim world would be horrified at femalge genitla mutilation of girls and if itb was into woemns rights said prverted assults on young girls would never occure or be rare not like 97% or egyptions and nearly all somalis See these links most off all http://web.amnesty.org/library/index/engact770071997 http://www.middle-east-info.org/league/somalia/fmgpictures.htm http://www.freewebs.com/fgmsociety/pictures.htm http://www.middle-east-info.org/league/somalia/fmgpictures.htm http://www.spinifexpress.com.au/kadi/kadi.htm http://www.spinifexpress.com.au/kadi/whatfgm.htm If you think it’s only the odd wacko individual who does this try these figures for size ...

Public executions and punishments (such as floggings) became regular events at Afghan soccer stadiums. Frivolous activities, like kite-flying, were outlawed. In order to root out "non-Islamic" influence, television, music, and the Internet were banned. Men were required to wear beards, and subjected to beatings if they didn't. Most shocking to the West was the Taliban's treatment of women. When the Taliban took Kabul, they immediately forbade girls to go to school. Moreover, women were barred from working outside the home, precipitating a crisis in healthcare and education. Women were also prohibited from leaving their home without a male relative—those that did so risked being beaten, even shot, by officers of the "ministry for the protection of virtue and prevention of vice." A woman caught wearing fingernail polish may have had her fingertips chopped off. All this, according to the Taliban, was to safeguard women and their honor. NOT EXACTLY PEACE, LOVE AND EQUALITY FOR WOMEN IS IT.? NOR THE ODD NUT JOB EITHER... VOTING IN AND HAVING A POLICE AND JUDICARY ALL AROUND SHARIA LAW IS NOT THE ODD NUT Just adding the examples to educate on reality for all those with blinkers on ********************************* aali_ If what you are saying is true... How come hippy communities dont do all that and all I mentioned occurs mainly or only in the islamic world and communities? certainly in a legal or large scale with community acceptance. ******************************* NOTE ANYONE WHO DOES NOT READ IT ALL AND CHECK ALL THE LINKS HAS NO RIGHT TO ANSWER AS THEY DONT KNOW ANYTHING AS HAVE NOT CHECKED THE EVIDENCE AND FACTS. SO CLEARLY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT AS FOR HATE... SORRY MATE ITS THOSE STOING THE GIRLS ETC THAT HATE... I SEEK JUSTICE AND AN END TO THAT. What if it was your friend, wife, or daughter that was done to? ***************************** QUOTE Oh and thirdly, arranged marriages are not forced. Every person - male or female - has the specific right to say yes or no. Funny then explain the murders sorry honour killings of those refused and the girls taken to pakistan on holiday never to return?
