Egypt woman sexually assaulted, then murdered
Bikya Masr ^ | 16 September 2012 | Joseph Mayton

A 20-year-old Egyptian woman was murdered earlier this month after being sexually assaulted, the Egyptian Center for Women’s Rights (ECWR) reported... as sexual violence toward women continues to plague Egypt, with reports of increased violence and harassment being reported by women across the country.

...

the head of the National Council of Women (NCW) Mervat Tallawy said that Egyptian women are harassed, on average, “7 times every 200 meters.”

Her comments came as the issue of Egypt’s sexual harassment epidemic continued to make international headlines.

June this year saw some of the worst attacks against women, with both foreigners and Egyptians reporting that they had been sexually assaulted in the square take place following the disbanding of Parliament.

...

A 2008 study by the Egyptian Center for Women’s Rights (ECWR) found that well over two-thirds of Egyptian women are sexually harassed daily in the country.

The participants held signs that read “It is my right to protest safely,” “Groping your sister is shameful for the square” and “Be a man and protect her instead of harassing her.”

Don’t you wish some one in the media had the stones to get right in Obama’s face and ask him how his party dares make up lies about a Republican “war on women” when this kind of stuff goes on in his beloved Muslim countries?

Islam teaches men to hate, abuse and enslave women. Islamic Democracy, joke that it is, won’t change that. Islam turns men into brutal homosexuals.

That’s a unit of measurement I wasn’t familiar with: Harassments-Per-Meter.

Why would any woman, anywhere, who is not now a Muslim, agree voluntarily to convert to that religion?

I am speaking of the young maids of France, Belgium, the Scandanavian countries, Germany, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Spain, Canada or here in the United States, who think they are getting some sort of romantic “bad boy”.

The romance goes away, the bad stays right to the end.

For those already trapped in Islam, by birth or by a badly considered conversion, temporary escape may be possible, but eventually, the “enforcers” will come for you, and make the decision to leave a death sentence.

White guilt, self hatred, and liberalism. A twisted trio.

Why should the MSM get in Obama’s face?

They ARE Obama’s face.

My site gets hits all the time from Muslim countries. ALL THE TIME.

They love pretty girls just as much as the pervs here in the U.S., me included.

Don't believe the propaganda.

Oh! What is my site?

Ask me by private mail.
