Why is the Guardian still smearing Charlie Kirk as "far Right" even after he was murdered by what appears to be an 'anti-fascist' activist inflamed by the Left's hyperbolic rhetoric, asks Professor James Alexander.

Repression against women in Iraq seems to be growing

There were some disturbing reports circulating on the net last year from the Workers Communist Party of Iraq on attacks on women by political Islamists. Now it seems in Baghdad Islamists are deepening their imposition of social morals on women. Anyone who has ever read Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis, with its account of the slow disintegration of female autonomy in Iran will notice the striking similarity with the blog account below. Its by an Iraqi woman and is an award winning blog..

"I look at my older clothes- the jeans and t-shirts and colorful skirts- and it’s like I’m studying a wardrobe from another country, another lifetime. There was a time, a couple of years ago, when you could more or less wear what you wanted if you weren’t going to a public place. If you were going to a friends or relatives house, you could wear trousers and a shirt, or jeans, something you wouldn’t ordinarily wear. We don’t do that anymore because there’s always that risk of getting stopped in the car and checked by one militia or another." -Baghdad Burning

Every Muslim must submit to Allah and the teachings of Muhammed, Blessings Be Upon His Name, His Prophet.
Man does not submit to manmade laws because that is sinful.
Who is man in the face of Allah?
What are our laws against Allah's laws?
The Qu'ran clearly instructs women to cover themselves.
That is in the laws of Sharia - divine Muslims laws.

Is Muhammed's teachings an interpretation of Allah's word?
