Where The Hell Are Western Feminists?

Western women who call themselves feminists support equal pay for women, lesbian rights, and a whole host of other western issues. They can be powerful in their condemnation of injustices toward women. That is all good.

But where are these same women when reports of stonings, clitorectomies, and the kidnapping and sale of women are in the news? They are silent.

The report below tells of women who were stoned to death because they were Accused of adultery. Where is the outrage? Where are the marches?

Stoning a person to death is an ancient punishment. It is designed to be brutal and painful. It is thus, perhaps, in an effort towards the prevention of the crimes that bring it. Stoning requires that the person die a horrible death and none of those casting stones can be held to blame for the death.

It is beyond reasonable that those who march for women’s rights won’t even start a #Hashtag campaign against the civil rights violations that are committed against women in the middle east.

WOMEN STONED TO DEATH IN SYRIA FOR ADULTERY

A cleric read the verdict before the truck came and dumped a large pile of stones near the municipal garden. Jihadi fighters then brought in the woman, clad head to toe in black, and put her in a small hole in the ground. When residents gathered, the fighters told them to carry out the sentence: Stoning to death for the alleged adulteress.

None in the crowd stepped forward, said a witness to the event in a northern Syrian city. So the jihadi fighters, mostly foreign extremists, did it themselves, pelting Faddah Ahmad with stones until her body was dragged away.

“Even when she was hit with stones she did not scream or move,” said an opposition activist who said he witnessed the stoning near the football stadium and the Bajaa garden in the city of Raqqa, the main Syrian stronghold of the Islamic State group.

The July 18 stoning was the second in a span of 24 hours. A day earlier, 26-year-old Shamseh Abdullah was killed in a similar way in the nearby town of Tabqa by Islamic State fighters. Both were accused of having sex outside marriage.”
