Muslim Blues

Salaam,


Our Egyptian brethren at their best:

"Egyptians are horrified by the news that women have been assaulted by hordes of young men in the centre of the capital, Cairo."


""We saw one girl being chased by a man, her blouse torn off, she ran inside a restaurant," one eyewitness reported..."We took the girl inside and locked the door. There were four or five of us. But there were hundreds of young men outside trying to break down the door.""


"Cairo street crowds target women": http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/6106500.stm

Very interesting comments: http://arabist.net/arabawy/2006/11/01/protest-sexual-assaults/



Our Lebanese brethren at their best:

"By 8 p.m., women in their 20s and early 30s are prowling in packs of five and six, casting meaningful glances at any and all passing men. In the bars the women dance for hours - often on top of the bar - and legs, midriffs, bare shoulders and barely covered bosoms are offered for public admiration."


"Ramadan over, women of Beirut prowl for mates": http://www.iht.com/articles/2006/11/02/news/beirut.php?page=1



Not enough tears to shed at the demise of the ummah.

Salaam
