    Dude, do you want to be at least be more accurate when you defame?

    ‘ISIS has ordered all girls and women between the ages of 11 and 46 in and around Iraq’s northern city of Mosul to undergo female genital mutilation, the U.N. said on Thursday.’ – Al Arabiya News, 24 July 2014

    I imagine the above was in reaction to the below:Campaigners at Girl Summit call for end to female genital mutilation

    From above article:“Experts tie the practice to specific ethnic groups rather than a particular religion or country.”

    And what does this have to do with the conditions in Gaza?See what I mean by attempts to denigrate an entire religion rather than what should be critcised.

    A common practice in sub-Saharan Africa, with many trying to end the practice. Check out aboriginal “sub-incision” for MALES in some cultures. Then of course, look out for a rabbi with a knife. Sexual barbarity is common in many “religions”.

    As to Gaza, that’s just become mass mutilation, of a populace, not just men, but women and children, so “civilized” is grandly distorted to allow for some transgressions. “Victimhood” is the ultimate con game.

    The old joke about Kerry — based on his statement that he voted for a provision but then, after the GOP screwed it up with amendments, voted against the final bill. Apparently conservatives don’t believe in paying attention on the floor of Congress, just in the hallway where the checks are being passed out.
