Violet_Crumble (33,309 posts) Women bear brunt of Islamophobia It is the little things that Sara misses the most: driving around with the windows down, taking her kids to the park, ducking to shops for groceries. The Muslim mother-of-two from Revesby is too scared to leave the house after a spate of anti-Muslim incidents in Sydney. "I've seen so many friends report on their Facebook about being abused, I have a friend who was spat on at Central station last week. When the Bankstown shopping centre was evacuated the other day for a smoke alarm I had friends who said the crowds started to abuse them and shout insults" she said. <snip> Since the anti-terror raids, attacks on Muslims have been "relentless" and "disgusting" with incidents more widespread than reported, police say. Campsie crime manager, detective inspector Paul Albury, said social media has been a breeding ground for hatred. And women seem to bear the brunt of the abuse. "It's targeting women, which is just mind-blowing," he said. Read more: http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/women-bear-brunt-of-islamophobia-20141009-113r9o.html#ixzz3FpnjZGjY

Violet_Crumble (33,309 posts) 2. The article's about Islamophobia in Australia... Islamophobia, not Islam...
ProdigalJunkMail (11,332 posts) 4. and yet my point stands...like it or not, islamophobia is not be biggest 'islam-problem' women face.
Violet_Crumble (33,309 posts) 5. You don't have a point... You've ignored the article, which was about abuse of Muslim women in Australia, and tried to divert it away from that.
ProdigalJunkMail (11,332 posts) 6. nope... i ignored nothing and am simply stating that your article points out a problem that is not the biggest problem that the women under islam face... but you go on and act like i don't have a point. that said, it is a shame anyone is persecuted for their religion...
Violet_Crumble (33,309 posts) 7. You haven't said anything about the Islamophobia aimed at women in Australia...Well, except for that last little 'it's a shame' bit tacked on to the end of the post I'm replying to now. Because what yr talking about isn't what the article's about. The article was about Islamophobia and the attacks on Muslim women in Australia. What has what you've said got to do with what's being done to them? If you wanted to talk about Islam itself, there's plenty of other threads where that discussion's going on. But this one is about attacks by bigots in Australia who hate Muslims, and how women have become targets.
ProdigalJunkMail (11,332 posts) 8. ok... let's try this again islamophobia (see, i am talking about it) is NOT the biggest problem women under islam face. i don't think you get that. so, i posted the comment on your thread. the fact that you can't seem to understand that leads me to believe that you think islamophobia IS the biggest problem they face (in this case, in australia) so it would appear my post was appropriately placed.
Violet_Crumble (33,309 posts) 10. No, yr still not talking about it...The attacks and abuse these women are facing *is* the biggest problem these women face. You do realise Australia's not a Muslim country, don't you? It just seems to me you want to minimise the very real Islamophobic attacks that have been happening here.
This discrimination could all end...IF muslims would behave themselves.Its really simple. Stop the barbarism and we'll treat you as civilized people. Until then, learn to love being spat upon.
When did the leftists latch onto Muhammad's Molesters as their chosen people? I'd like to think it has something to do with them misinterpreting the shape of the container housing the Kaaba stone as a giant vagina, but that' s just me.
How Proglodytes think:1. Cut-off heads2. Get spat upon for cutting off heads.3. Cite being spat upon as justification for cutting off heads.

During the 60s and 70s the Soviets funded and trained Muslim terrorists as a proxy war against the US and NATO countries. Naturally there was an undergirding propaganda campaign.Proglodytes fell in love with the propaganda as a way of explaining away their own failures.
There have been books written about the un-Holy alliance between Muslims and Liberals.
