The thugs who label advanced civilisations as "axis of Evil": Laa’nat on Burgers & Ba Ba Blacksheep

A new world order is definitely needed, especially in the "West": an Islamic-world order.

The propaganda by the "WEST" to vilify muslim men is being done with a plan & purpose; to hide the wretchedness & vulgarity of its own secular & satanic "systems"

Newsweek talks about humiliation of Muslim women. Now let us look at some records of domestic violence and homicide in the U.S.A.[15]
Domestic violence:

*

According to a U.S. Department of Justice report (March 1998 ), estimates range from 960,000 incidents of violence against a current or former spouse, boyfriend, or girlfriend per year to three million women who are physically abused by their husband or boyfriend per year.
*

Nearly one-third of American women ( 31%) report being physically or sexually abused by a husband or boyfriend at some point in their lives, according to a 1998 Commonwealth Fund survey.
*

Nearly 25% of American women report being raped and/or physically assaulted by a current or former spouse, cohabiting partner, or date at some time in their lifetime, according to the National Violence Against Women Survey, conducted from November 1995 to May1996 . [Note: According to the National Organization for Women (NOW) website: www.now.org, every year nearly1 . 2million women are forcibly raped by their former or current partners.]

*

Thirty percent of Americans say they know a woman who has been physically abused by her husband or boyfriend in the past year.[16]
*

According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics Crime Data Brief, in the year2001 , more than half a million American women (588,490 women) were victims of nonfatal violence committed by an intimate partner.
*

While women are less likely than men to be victims of violent crimes overall, women are five to eight times more likely than men to be victimized by an intimate partner.[17]
*

In2001 , intimate partner violence made up 20 percent of violent crime against women. The same year, intimate partners committed three percent of all violent crime against men.[18]
*

As many as324 , 000women each year experience intimate partner violence during their pregnancy.[19]

Domestic Homicides

*

On average, more than three women are murdered by their husbands or boyfriends in the U.S.A. every day. In2000 , 1,247 women were killed by an intimate partner. The same year, 440 men were killed by an intimate partner. (Note: According to the NOW website: www.now.org, approximately 1400 women a year are murdered in the USA by their husbands and boyfriends.)
*

Women are much more likely than men to be killed by an intimate partner. In2000 , intimate partner homicides accounted for33 . 5 percent of the murders of women and less than four percent of the murders of men.

Health Issues

*

The health-related costs of rape, physical assault, stalking and homicide committed by intimate partners exceed $5. 8billion each year. Of that amount, nearly $4. 1billion are for direct medical and mental health care services, and nearly $1. 8billion are for the indirect costs of lost productivity or wages.
*

About half of all female victims of intimate violence report an injury of some type, and about 20 percent of them seek medical assistance.
*

Thirty-seven percent of women who sought treatment in emergency rooms for violence-related injuries in 1994 were injured by a current or former spouse, boyfriend or girlfriend.

Domestic Violence and Youth

*

Approximately one in five female high school students reports being physically and/or sexually abused by a dating partner.
*

Eight percent of high school age girls said “yes” when asked if “a boyfriend or date has ever forced sex against your will.”
*

Forty percent of girls age 14 to 17 report knowing someone their age who has been hit or beaten by a boyfriend.
*

During the1996 - 1997school year, there were an estimated 4,000 incidents of rape or other types of sexual assault in public schools across the country.

Domestic Violence and Children

*

In a national survey of more than6 , 000American families, 50 percent of the men who frequently assaulted their wives also frequently abused their children.
*

Slightly more than half of female victims of intimate violence live in households with children under age12 .
*

Studies suggest that between3 . 3and 10 million children witness some form of domestic violence annually.

Rape

*

Three in four women ( 76percent) who reported they had been raped and/or physically assaulted since age 18 said that a current or former husband, cohabiting partner, or date committed the assault.
*

One in five (21 percent) women reported she had been raped or physically or sexually assaulted in her lifetime.
*

Nearly one-fifth of women ( 18percent) reported experiencing a completed or attempted rape at some time in their lives; one in 33 men (three percent) reported experiencing a completed or attempted rape at some time in their lives.
*

In2000 , 48percent of the rapes/sexual assaults committed against people age 12 and over were reported to the police.
*

In2001 , 41,740 women were victims of rape/sexual assault committed by an intimate partner.
*

Rapes/sexual assaults committed by strangers are more likely to be reported to the police than rapes/sexual assaults committed by “non-strangers,” including intimate partners, other relatives and friends or acquaintances. Between 1992 and2000 , 41 percent of the rapes/sexual assaults committed by strangers were reported to the police. During the same time period, 24 percent of the rapes/sexual assaults committed by an intimate were reported.

Stalking

*

Annually in the United States,503 , 485women are stalked by an intimate partner.
*

Seventy-eight percent of stalking victims are women. Women are significantly more likely than men ( 60percent and 30 percent, respectively) to be stalked by intimate partners.
*

Eighty percent of women who are stalked by former husbands are physically assaulted by that partner and 30 percent are sexually assaulted by that partner.

Has the situation improved? According to RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network, USA), in2002 , there were247 , 730victims of rape, attempted rape or sexual assault. Of these approximately248 , 000victims, about87 , 000were victims of completed rape,70 , 000were victims of attempted rape, and91 , 000 were victims of sexual assault. Up to4 , 315pregnancies may have resulted from these attacks. [RAINN calculation based on 2002 National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) and medical reports. The 1999 NCVS report says that61 % of rapes/sexual assaults are not reported to police.][20]

These are daunting and worrisome statistics about how miserably the “progressive” American society is failing in protecting the lives and honor of women and minors, something that Manji and her sponsors like to hide under the rug. In contrast, aspects of Islamic culture that the West regards as medieval could have prevented such failures. Women are more protected in Muslim countries. A woman there is less prone to sexual and physical violence. A woman in major cities like Cairo and Tehran can walk home at night, without the fear of rape, murder or mugging, something that is unthinkable for women in western cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, New York and Philadelphia.
Last words on the allegations of inferior treatment of Muslim women:

Nearly twelve centuries before the dawning of western Enlightenment, the Prophet (S) of Islam said, "The best among you are those who treat women well." He also said, “No one of my Ummah (community) supports three daughters or three sisters and treats well, except that they will be a shield for him from the Fire (of Hell).”

A man came to Muhammad (S) and asked: “O Messenger of Allah, which person of all people is best entitled to kind treatment and the good companionship from me?” He (S) answered: “Your mother.” The man asked again: “And then?” He said: “Your mother.” The man asked for the third time: “And after her?” He said: “Your mother.” The man asked for the fourth time: “And after that?” He said: “Your father.”

How could a culture that teaches - "Paradise lies under the feet of mother"[21] be oppressive to women?[22]

Contrary to allegations in the Newsweek piece, women in Islam are not inferior to men. According to Shaykh Ibn al-Arabi (R), one of the great Sufi scholars, "In some respects woman is superior to man, and is his equal in most other cases" (Al-Futuhat). The Qur’an says, "Surely the noblest among you in the sight of God is the most God-fearing of you" (49:13). Another way to read this verse would be: "The only superiority in God’s sight consists in preserving oneself from evil." Men and women, says the Qur’an, are garments of one another ["They are a garment for you and you are a garment to them" (2:187)]. God "has created spouses for you among yourselves so that you may dwell in tranquility with them, and He has planted love and mercy between you. In that are signs for people who reflect" (30:21).

It is painful to see that in spite of such noble teachings, Muslims have sometimes failed to honor and protect women. In this regard, Henry Bayman’s remark is rather illuminating. In his brilliant work – The Meaning of the Four Books – he says, “The history of Islam is, by and large, the history of the failure of so-called "Islamic" nations to live up to the high ideals of Islam, as much as it is of their success. … Ideals are always difficult to translate into practice, but the shortcoming here lies with all-too-human failings, not with the ideals themselves.”

We have seen that women liberation did neither empower western women nor has secured them, the questions to consider are: did it, at least, dignify them?[23] Did “progress” enrich the quality of their family and individual life? What is desirable, a mad rush for western “progress” that does not guarantee peace, security and dignity, or a faith-based system that is conservative but still guarantees peace, security and dignity?[24] Well, we may differ with Manji and her ilk on these issues. Enough said!
