I saw a doctumentary about this middleastern lady who is trying to help other women over there.It showed honor killings and showed them stoning a 17 yr old girl to death.Her family were the ones who drug her out and helped kill her.Then it showed a roomful of women in burkas being told by this woman that they did not have to be beaten by their husbands.Even tho they wered ina safe place they would not tell anything.But they interviewed one woman who said,and I quote,That is the was a woman has to be treated by her husband.then she said women r nothing.She wasnt agreeing with the interviewer, she seriously thought this way.I was appalled at the mindset of these women and the killing of this child.This is all over the middleeast.
That is a shame that people that are suppose to be religious could do something like that,I guess it's the real world.And they call American"s the devil.
If you haven't been to a third world country then your in for a surprise. You want a culture shock just drive to Mexico , I saw a bus siting on its frame with 2 familes living in it with a chicken coop where the motor use to be.
I is much worse in some of the states in India; widows are still burned alive after the husband dies, wives are murdered by husbands relatives or himself if wife(by arrangement) wants to cancel or leave, gays are hunted down by villagers, etc. etc. Both Moslem and Hindus have "issues"; who doesn't Why are the crimes in India not being mentioned... "out of fashion"...and only the Taliban are fair game as it were... some of these posts are as balanced...or as unbalanced as the so called "major newspapers".
HELLO BRO. AM IN INDIA 4 SOME TIME AND HVE DONE AN EXTENSIVE RESEARCH. THERE R SURELY SOME BACKWARD PEOPLE IN HERE WHO LIVE IN VILLAGES. WHAT UR SAYING HAS BEEN CHECKED AND THE WOMEN BEING BURNT ALIVE THING DOESNT HAPPEN ANY MORE. GAYS BEING MURDERED AND WIVES BEING KILLED IS A THING OF PAST. SOME PROBLEMS STILL PERSIST BUT THEY R BEING TAKEN CARE OF.
