Gaza women warned of immodesty
2006-12-03
The Gaza death spiral continues.
A hitherto unknown group calling itself the Just Swords of Islam issued a warning to Palestinian women in the Gaza Strip over the weekend that they must wear the hijab or face being targeted by the group's members. The warning was directed primarily against female students in a number of universities and colleges who do not cover their heads in line with Islamic tradition.
Gaza has universities? Who knew?
The group said its followers last week threw acid at the face of a young woman who was dressed "immodestly" in the center of Gaza City. They also destroyed a car belonging to a young man who was playing his radio tape too loudly.

Addressing female students, the group said: "We will have no mercy on any woman who violates the traditions of Islam and who also hang out in Internet cafes."

According to the group, its members used rocket-propelled grenades to attack 12 Internet cafes and a number of music shops in different parts of the Gaza Strip. It said the places were targeted because they were "distracting an entire generation of Palestinians from their duty to worship [Alla] and jihad so that they could serve their Zionist masters and the Crusaders."
From all the pr0n surfing?
Hamas officials denied any connection to the group, noting that their movement does not resort to methods of "intimidation and terror" against the people.
Then their lips fell off and their noses grew.
Palestinians in the Gaza Strip reacted with mixed feelings to the group's threats. While many seemed to support the demand that all women wear the hijab, others expressed fear that the group was trying to create a Taliban-style regime.
Gee, ya think?

#16  Yeah, the US govt should hire the RPGgangsters, train them, and then let them loose in Gaza to clean up the place. I mean, it would probably be an improvement, right?

#13  Since upwards of 60% of Moslem men have been sexually abused by religious leaders or older relatives in childhood, they readily look to victimize those they can under whatever excuse they come up with. It's called "acting out" in the psychology arena. Since they don't deal with the trauma directly, then instead "act it out" as a type of play. This allows them to, at least momentarily, feel more powerful than their abusers, allows them to identify with the abusers and thereby feel, at least momentarily, that their own abuse wasn't that bad, and it also allows them to vent and discharge their reams and reams of pent-up rage. To be violent and agress puts them "in the driver's seat" once again. As for the prayers in the mosque--putting their behinds up in the air, it's kind of a group context for abuse. "We've all been abused. We will offer our anuses together in submission to allah." No one would ever complain, because to do so would then negate the group experience of mutual (albeit unspoken) recognition of their sodomization. Raging aginst freedom and female sexuality is, for them, a necessary thing or they would be forced to confront their own feelings about what happened to them, and the fact that no one in their society is standing up against this widespread child abuse. The acid in the face thing is so diabolical, because women naturally generate sexual feelings in men, but those sexual feelings are linked to their past abuse, so when the feelings (and other things) start to "come up" they panic, become angry, act out. It's like "stop, stop, don't remind me of what happened to me. I will stop you from reminding me of what happened to me." And then, their religion complicates it because the representatives, the "holy" men of their religion are typically involved, so they have a choice: submit and support Islam, or stand alone against everything in their culture, and be killed by others who are trying to run from the horror of their experience. They almost all go along with it and are "welcomed" into a kind of fellowship of the abused, where they get all kinds of support and honor for acting out. Those that are "brave" enough to act out in the worst ways, get the best praise.

That's my 2-cent's worth. Oh--sorry about what happened to them, but like any other criminal who acts out in unacceptable ways, they need to die.

Last thing--don't underestimate the potency of this drive. That's why, if we want to protect ourselves, we must draw the lines clearly and decisively. It would take YEARS, rather generations, to undo what passes for religiously condoned abuse and it's aftermath, and unfortunately, there's not time, even if they wanted to get free of it.

It so pisses me off to see what they do to women in these KKK Nazi redneck hick equivalent countries.

#6  "Just Swords of Islam. That's us to be sure, Just Swords."

"What about guns?"

"Oh, all right. Swords and some guns, as well. But that's all."

"What about bomb vests?"

"Yeah, those too. Swords, guns and bomb vests."

"What about RPGs?"

"Well ... somtimes RPGs but mostly swords, guns and bomb vests."

"What about Qassam rocke..."

"Look, shut up already! When we say 'The Just Swords of Islam', its not a reference to exclusive use of any one type of weapon. It's all about looking cool while dispensing street level justice, beating up women and threatening little kids. We're much more modern than that, it's only that 'The Just Swords of Islam' sounds a lot more manly and violent!"

#3  Problem with these Islamo-Nazis is *their* utterly sexless lives rendered more miserable when five times a day they have to look up at a man's rear end during prayer.

It's all about sex Mahmoud!

Holy crap! Talk about the ultimate in censorship! And you thought Tipper Gore was bad with the whole bit about labeling CD's for their explicit lyrics.

No mercy for women hanging out in Internet Cafes? Problem with these Islamo-Nazis is there utterly sexless lives rendered more miserable when five times a day they have to look up at a man's rear end during prayer. Advantage goes to he who prays in the front row. At least he experiences a bung-hole free zone.

#1  Once again - elect terrorists, die with the result. But remember, we have to "respect" your democratic choices, How's it working for you?
