The Grand Turk
Ergodan:
2014-11-30
[South African.com] At a summit in Istanbul, ErdoÄŸan was quoted as saying that equality between men and women "is against nature." The same man who told a journalist that "women should know their place" not long ago, sparked outrage with the speech made at a convention organised by women's groups aimed at eradicating gender discrimination in Turkey.

"You cannot make women and men equal; this is against nature," el presidente told the crowd of women, which included his own daughter. "You cannot subject a pregnant woman to the same working conditions as a man. You cannot make a mother who has to breastfeed her child equal to a man. You cannot make women do everything men do like the communist regimes did…this is against her delicate nature."

As if that wasn't enough, he had to justify this tomfoolery by saying that Islam dictated motherhood to be the prime role of women, reciting a hadith saying that "heaven lies at your mother's feet".

#4  Paul D: yes, it is his dream. He's between the opposite poles of Khomenini-inspired Shi'a radicalism and al-Qaeda/Muslim Brotherhood inspired Sunni fundamentalism. He's a "third way" Muslim, as it were. He's getting there.
