AHMADINEJAD'S NEW ENEMY: WOMEN
By AMIR TAHERI
September 6, 2008 --
IN one of his last sermons before his death, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini warned of "three threats" to his vision of Islam: the US, the Jews and women.
Two decades later, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad thinks he has the United States and the Jews in hand - and is moving on the third "enemy."
Women were the first to demonstrate against Khomeini's regime with a mass rally in Tehran on March 8, 1979 - less than a month after the mullahs had seized power. Over the next decade, the authorities imprisoned hundreds of thousands of women for varying lengths of time, and executed thousands.
But women continued to fight a regime that deemed them subhuman. Their resistance prevented the mullahs from abrogating pre-revolutionary laws limiting gender discrimination. Thus, women succeeded in keeping their right to vote and win public office.
They also retained a veto, granted by the shah, on their husbands' Islamic right to take up to four permanent wives and countless temporary concubines.

Bottom line - Ahma-Nuttjob saw the Gov’s speech, and she scares him s**tless.
Women are also the Democrats’ and media’s new enemy-at least ones with an “R” after their names.
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Islamist enemy is women; Dims enemy is women with children
Ahmawhackjob sees Sarah Palin and feels more and more like a moose........
Certainly not as long as an "R" is in the White House.
When a "D" is in the White House, they will be all for taking out Ahmanutjob.
“Free people everywhere should speak out in support of Iranian women,”
Agree. Where are the NAGS on this?
Newsflash for Ahmadinejad. Without women, you wouldn’t be here.
The NAGS have an alliance of convenience with the Islamists. They both have the same enemy — American conservatives.
So Ahmanutjob finally comes out of the closet.
Not Without My Daughter is the only movie you need to see to understand where women stand in the islamo world. Well done, Sally.
I don’t know about that but I have a difficult time understanding such extreme viewpoints.
That was my thought too. After she finishes with Obama, he’s next.
Yes he looks like a DemocRat boy lover!
Thank goodness it was made when it was - this story would never be filmed now. Too un-PC, too truthful about our leftist friends' friends.
Anybody who hates America is all right with them, the fools.
The fact that the actions of the islamists is so mind-bogglng to most of us in the West, is their strongest weapon and strength for infiltrating and trying to force an unwelcome change on us.
Nobody believes this can exist, so we stay blindly disbelieving in denial.
