The Islamic Dilemma

-----
The controversy began when the Pakistani government introduced the Protection of Women Against Violence Bill, which effectively criminalizes violence against women in Punjab — the country’s most populous region.

Before the law was officially enacted on March 1, diehard extremists attempted to block the legislation, saying it would “destroy the family system in Pakistan” and “add to the miseries of women.”

The bill was passed unanimously by the Punjab Assembly, and opponents have since warned of ongoing protests if it is not repealed.

I'm impressed Pakistan unanimously passed a Violence Against Women Act instead of bowing to pressure from religious extremists.

We can't even do that in the US.

Wouldn't it be great if the religious folks in our country were over-ruled like that?

Well we did pass the 'women can work wherever they want', 'women can marry whomever they want' and the 'women can go out in public by themselves' acts.

You are so right PH, America should strive to be more like Pakistan. We should turn to Pakistan as a beacon of Women's rights, and religious inclusiveness. Why not model our political system after them as well? Amirite???
 
Awful attempt at sarcasm. That's what idiots do when they can't defend their side.

Just when you thought that the migrant/refugee situation in Europe had become increasingly hopeless, Uncle George Soros rides to the rescue. According to our favorite lefty inside trading billionaire financier and friend of the Clintons, the thing to do in order to facilitate the settlement in Europe of millions more - who mostly can not/will not be assimilated, only some of whom are actually refugees, and include an unhealthy dose of murderous terrorists (all virtually inseparably mixed together) - is to borrow lots of money from him and his tax dodging/cheating offshoring financially bloated friends, this year and each year to follow for years to come. This is excellent liberal advice for countries that are already excessively in debt and having difficulties with minorities unwilling to assimilate. Please stand and applaud at the brazen, mendacious, and malicious greediness of it all. With friends like these ...

Now all of you confused souls planning to vote for Hillary just remember this: Mr. Soros and his friends are the chief gurus (and contributors) for Madame talking out of all four sides of her mouth simultaneously and their excessive pernicious influence can be relied on if she becomes POTUS.

Read about it here (you can click on it with confidence because you are doing a good deed and supporting another solidly leftist news source of which we clearly do not have enough)
