Before you ask, I am not searching for these stories — they are flying into my email fast and furious. A New York woman beheaded by her moderate Muslim husband, a woman beaten so bad that she swallowed her tongue and died, a woman set on fire by the Muslim who ‘loved her” ……This is Islamic misogyny. This is Islam.
“Hizb ut-Tahrir video condoning family violence slammed as ‘abhorrent’ by MPs and advocacy groups,” 9News, April 13, 2017:
Politicians and advocacy groups have slammed a Facebook video by an Islamic group which condones domestic violence and describes hitting wives as “a beautiful blessing”.
The video, which was shot during an all-women’s event in Sydney’s west and posted to Facebook by the women’s branch of Hizb Ut-Tahrir, was revealed by The Australian newspaper this morning.
It features two Muslim women explaining that according to their understanding of Islam, men can discipline their wives by “hitting” them with a small stick or twisted scarf so as not to cause pain.
“It’s very evident that this is symbolic in nature,” one of the women said.
Federal Minister for Women Michaelia Cash said the attitudes expressed in the video were “completely out of touch with community standards”.
“The Facebook video posted by Women of Hizb ut-Tahrir Australia condoning and encouraging violence against women is abhorrent,” Ms Cash said in a statement.
“These attitudes have no place in modern Australia.
“Domestic violence is abuse – plain and simple. It is not ‘a beautiful blessing’ as the video describes it.”…
TODAY Show host Ben Fordham said the video echoed recent comments by Australian Federation of Islamic Councils President Keysar Trad, who sparked controversy when he suggested an angry husband could beat his wife as a “last resort”.
Mr Trad later backtracked on the comment and described it as a “slip up”….
Silma Ihram from the Australian Muslim Women’s Association has criticised the video’s message, arguing Islam in no way condones violence.
“Unfortunately, patriarchal cultures and organisations continue to try and relegate Muslim women to domestic duties and control by their husbands,” she told 9news.com.au.
“This was not the practice of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings upon him) nor the intent of the jurists in their interpretations of Islamic law, and definitely should not be condoned in any form today.”…

Exactly how it happened in Britain.
Liberals with their identity politics and naive cries for “diversity” have become the pawns for Jihad and Hijrah. Radical Islam is an archaic, primitive belief system that has resulted in millions of deaths and NO forward advance of cultures it infects.
It’s laughable these “progressives”, who are supposed to want societal progress, want to import these refugees into our country and into the West.
We can no longer afford to house these 3rd world invaders. It’s too risky. America is struggling enough as it is. Most of us are making below living wage and had our health insurance forcefully taken away by Obama. My healthcare is up to $520 per month; compare this to my $25 per month car insurance (from Insurance Panda) or my $10/month life insurance. Both private enterprise (take note, Dems). Do we really want our tax dollars aiding these terrorists?
You can’t coexist with someone who wants to chop your head off.
Democrats are working toward a voter base so large, no one can vote against them. That is why they demand illegals be made voting citizens and, if they have to get in bed with the shariah devil, support the murderous muzzies, anyone who will vote Democrat. Democrats have been working toward this for about Twenty Five years. By the last elections, I would say they are close.
That isnt Islam, thats arab.
A stick’s a stick.
The worst is that under Sharia, Australians won’t be allowed to drink Beer, but will have to drink Camel Nectar instead 🙂
“He used to consult all of his wives.” Oy vey.
4 official+innumerable other.
Thanks gigi4747 for up voting me.
Good bye, Australia. Drinking the islamic Kool-Aid.
It’s sad, I thought Australians were made of sterner stuff… Let’s face it all of western civilisation is rotten to the core.
In that case,what do they call genital mutilation?Something more sublime? Curses be upon us for not comprehending the multiple blessings the ideology offers.
