Muslim Women Don't See Themselves as Oppressed, Survey Finds - New York Times. ................ (2006 article. No reason to think it would be different today.) "What do you admire least about the West?" was the general perception of moral decay, promiscuity and pornography that pollsters called the "Hollywood image" that is regarded as degrading to women.
***** nd. To my critics, young and old, tired of my incessant calls to total devotion, sacrifice, to the global neediest, NOW, regardless of personal cost: Fact - You are sacrificing one million times more by NOT waging this Revolution, the Only Revolution, 100% Lived Solidarity with the Global Neediest, the only True Revolution that has ever been possible. This is The Revolution that can, that could have, Saved a Future for you. No? Really? What good is whatever 'normal' next 5 years you are counting on, if the 'future' after that as a US democracy, a planet, in unstoppable death-throws... for you, and every young person ever in your life?

***** (can others verify this?) Those who claim that the history and the future of Israel and Jerusalem is all very well laid out in the bible need to understand one very important reality of the great book. The words Israel and Jerusalem mentioned in the bible are NOT named after the physical geographical places. Rather, the physical geographical places are named after these words. One of the meanings of the hebrew word ‘Israel’ would resolve to “honest man of God”. Similarly, one of the meanings of the hebrew word ‘Jerusalem’ would resolve to “place of peace” or “founded peaceful”. So, Jerusalem in Israel really means ‘the peaceful center of the honest man of God’.

On April 9, 1948, members of Zionist paramilitary groups, the Irgun (led by Menachem Begin) and the Stern Gang (led by Yitzhak Shamir), entered the Arab village of Deir Yassin and massacred over 100 men, women and children. Deir Yassin had a population of about 600-750 people, and had a reputation for being a peaceful village. There were also reports of rapes and mutilations.
