‘Climate Change’ Threatens Women — But Not the Muslim Brotherhood?
In its own statement, the Muslim Brotherhood denounced the following as “decadence.”
1. Granting girls full sexual freedom, as well as the freedom to decide their own gender and the gender of their partners (ie, choose to have normal or homo- sexual relationships), while raising the age of marriage.
2. Providing contraceptives for adolescent girls and training them to use those, while legalizing abortion to get rid of unwanted pregnancies, in the name of sexual and reproductive rights.
3. Granting equal rights to adulterous wives and illegitimate sons resulting from adulterous relationships.
4. Granting equal rights to homosexuals, and providing protection and respect for prostitutes.
5. Giving wives full rights to file legal complaints against husbands accusing them of rape or sexual harassment, obliging competent authorities to deal husbands punishments similar to those prescribed for raping or sexually harassing a stranger.
6. Equal inheritance (between men and women).
7. Replacing guardianship with partnership, and full sharing of roles within the family between men and women such as: spending, child care and home chores.
8. Full equality in marriage legislation such as: allowing Muslim women to marry non-Muslim men, and abolition of polygamy, dowry, men taking charge of family spending, etc.
9. Removing the authority of divorce from husbands and placing it in the hands of judges, and sharing all property after divorce.
10. Canceling the need for a husband’s consent in matters like: travel, work, or use of contraception.
11.
Women getting an equal inheritance? Traveling without their husband’s consent? Holding a husband accountable for rape? Oh, the humanity!!
Representative Lee, I will assume you are still drafting the resolution to demand an end to the $1.5 billion in aid headed toward the group responsible for the verbal diarrhea above. Unless she doesn’t want to jeopardize her +7 rating by The Arab American Institute. (For a little parity, only Ellison (D-Wis.), Conyers (D-MI), Honda (D-CA), and Moran (D-Tenn.) received the same or a higher rating. In all of Congress).
Thank you so much for wasting taxpayer dollars, time, and energy on such an asinine piece of Legislative garbage while the real work remains undone.
