Sharia (Islamic law) is a brutally misogynistic ordinance that categorizes all women as subhuman. It is an evil decree (that if violated) carries a host of penalties ranging from multiple whippings to genital mutilation to gang rape to stoning.

Women in the Ummah (Global Islamic Community) have been subjected to this archaically medieval law since the 7th century. Their plight is one of highly disturbing and egregious proportions.

Yet, American feminists have been chillingly silent about this most poignant issue.

The brutal treatment of innocent young girls may be shocking to those who do not know how women are treated in Muslim countries, but it would be naive to think that people change their habits and views and raise their children to integrate into what in their eyes are blasphemous customs just because they cross a national border…
