Rape Culture

It's OK, I'm Muslim

No one knows the real name of the Port Hills Groper, the Muslim refugee who stalked and attacked over a dozen women jogging in Port Hills, even though he was arrested, tried and sentenced. Instead the New Zealand court gave him “permanent name suppression” to protect his status in his Muslim community. The Muslim groper had blamed his serial assaults on “a misunderstanding of cultural differences”

Esmatullah Sharifi, an Afghan refugee, offered an Australian woman a ride home and then put his right hand around her neck and his left hand over her mouth and raped her. Sharifi’s lawyers claimed that due to cultural differences he was confused about the nature of consent.

In Muslim Egypt, 99.3% of women and girls have been sexually harassed. What is ordinary behavior in Egyptian Muslim culture is a criminal act in Australia where women are considered to be human beings.

So, what is the driving thought behind all this "cultural difference"?

The cultural differences between the Muslim world and the Western world behind these rape cases were highlighted when Australia’s Grand Mufti, the infamous Sheikh Hilaly, had said, in response to an earlier Muslim gang rape case, that in sexual matters, “it’s 90 per cent the women’s responsibility.” Quoting al-Rafihi, the Grand Mufti said, “If I came across a rape crime. I would discipline the man and order that the woman be arrested and jailed for life.” Then the Grand Mufti went on to compare rape victims to uncovered meat. “If you take uncovered meat and put it on the street, on the pavement, in a garden, in a park or in the backyard, without a cover and the cats eat it, is it the fault of the cat or the uncovered meat? The uncovered meat is the problem.”

This last quote is the most telling;

There are no “free women” in Islam. There are women who belong to one man and there are women who belong to all men. There are wives and daughters or women who can be enslaved by any man.

In other words, in the religion of Peace, women are property and have no rights. They are shot for wanting to get an education, and raped for wanting to be an individual.Either walk around wearing a giant table cloth covering your whole body, or you are "asking for it" Yea. I think I "understand" these people just fine.
