In the name of Allah the merciful and compassionate?

EricPWJohnson on December 19, 2006 at 9:27 AM

“Control teams” for “uppity women”..wouldnt they have a field day with NOW? *lol* But we wont hear a word from the feminists or the female “activists”..I even doubt the “peacemom” will speak out about this. Deafening silence will be response.

labwrs on December 19, 2006 at 9:42 AM

Lashes for everyone. Women just need to learn their place right? When are we going to wise up?

VikingGoneWild on December 19, 2006 at 9:46 AM

I even doubt the “peacemom” will speak out about this.
labwrs on December 19, 2006 at 9:42 AM

Only if Michael J Fox pimps stem cell as a recovery tool for the whippings.

“Control teams” for “uppity women”..

Is there a scheduled appearance on “The View” with Barbara and the crew?

Wade on December 19, 2006 at 9:50 AM

few could have imagined that their money would end up subsidising the lashing of women in public.

I could. Choose your charities well.

EF on December 19, 2006 at 9:56 AM

Please,it is a cutlural thing,and all cultures are equal in the moonbat eye,in fact they truly feel that our culture is inferior and needs to pay a price .

bbz123 on December 19, 2006 at 10:04 AM

bbz123 may have a point there. For feminists to condemn these practices, they would have to indicate that there was something “superior” about our/Western culture. No. Can. Do.

It was shown, early on in the relief efforts, one of the meatballs unloading aid from a helicopter had a “pro Bin Laden” t-shirt on. I am sure it wasn’t on all news channels but if anyone saw this and sent aid there anyway deserves to be duped (aside from the fact that Indonesia is know to harbor massive amounts of radical Muslims). I do however send relief to every major disaster. It’s called taxes. I am sure I won’t be getting a Christmas holiday card from them any time soon…

Thanks for this vent, Michelle.

What a shame that the monies have been hijaceked by Islamo-Nazis.

Well, the NATIONAL ORGANIZATION OF WORTHLESS WOMEN will not say anything condemning the treatment of Indonesian women (unless they can find a way to blame Bush for it). The NOWW will only complain if they are dealing with men who will not tuck their “you-know-whats” between their legs, if a man askes a woman for a date without Gloria Steinam’s permission, etc. Indeed, the American Feminist only feels truly threatened when a man yells right back at her or says the word “NO” to her…then she files complaints, goes to court and says that she is being victimized.

REMEMBER…THE TYPICAL, PARAISITIC, AMERICAN FEMINIST HAS DOUBLE STANDARDS TO LIVE UP TO, AND MANY OF THEM ARE BRAVE ONLY WHEN THEY HAVE A MAN TO HIDE BEHIND OR A COURT RULING IN THEIR FAVOR.

I remember some years ago, some doctor in the Middle East who headed a Middle Eastern feminist movement was asked if her organization looks towards the American feminist for inspiration. Her repy was (and I am paraphrasing here from what I remember): “No, absolutely not. We want to be equal with men. You cannot be equal with men if you want to destroy them like the American feminists are doing. There is nothing wrong with men being head of the household, for example. The problem is the unfair and brutal treatment of women at home and at work that must be combated.” Now, that is a feminist I would gladly support. I only wish that I remembered her name.

Next time God takes a stab at destroying a Muslim country, perhaps we can just assume that He knows best?

morganfrost on December 19, 2006 at 11:25 AM

Great Vent Michelle!

When we patronize, or contribute, to an Islamic country or person should we expect anything else than they acting to their true nature? Simply because we contribute to their welfare does not mean that they will use those funds in a manner that we would consider acceptable, much less for the purpose it was intended. In my opinion Clinton is a naive fool who will tell you anything you want to hear to get what he wants or support for that which he advocates.

This vent gives excellent example why we should not patronize, or provide charity, to any Islamic interest. The Islamofacist is using our own generosity against us in their assault.

Wise choices in our patronage and charity to those we consider worthy and who hold values similar to our own will avoid this type of abuse by our standards. This greater selectivity in our patronage and charity includes all Islamic interests, no matter how “innocent” they appear, down to the Muslim at the corner liquor store.

I have come to the conclusion that the reported 10% of Indonisian Muslims who support the Islamofacist openly is very conservative. I believe that the number who support the Islamofacist State is much higher and supported in a passive manner by a great majority, if not almost all, Muslims - including the Muslim in the corner liquor store.

Let us pay attention to this event and remember that our patronage and charity has great impact and can be directed to those that are not supporting an assault on our values and way of life.

When I heard the world complaining at the time that the U.S. wasn’t doing enough to help in this disaster, the purse strings slammed shut. As far as I’m concerned the rest of the world can fend for itself. We have been used for far too long. It’s time to put the interests of America first.
Does anyone know where a breakdown of all the foriegn aid per year that the U.S. provides could found?

Gooch on December 19, 2006 at 12:29 PM

The jihadis will be the death of tourism in Indonesia. I saw an article about the drop in tourism back in November and wrote about it. (Please pardon the blog-pimping.)

flipflop on December 19, 2006 at 12:32 PM

What the Hell is there to see in that Second world armpit, anyway? Beaches and great waves. Sorry. that was tasteless

But I don’t ever give money to the Red Cross. If you could only know the AGENDA that organization has. EVERYone should live in Northern Virginia for about five years…it changes the way you view the world. FOREVER.

seejanemom on December 19, 2006 at 1:32 PM

Thanks Michelle & Hotair,
Michelle it seem like it was hard for you to say that buttheads name you know clinton.
Well I hope people on here is going to stand up to anyone that has their feelings hurt by the news when they broadcast trouble in other countries.
Start by saying hey let’s go to the nearest poor neighborhood and give them what you are ready to give the freaks in the other country.
Remember helping here should be your #1 priority not some country that is collecting the money to make bombs just to kill our people and beatings of their women and children there.
Lets give them what they need a good cry and no more money or handouts.
Your local red cross is in need , but make sure you ask if it’s for the people in your area unless somewhere in the us only needs help… MERRY CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR..

alyce on December 19, 2006 at 2:31 PM

When, oh when are we in the West going to get it through our thick skulls that Islam itself is evil? Call it an evil religion if that makes you feel better.

Islamic thugs would not exist if there were not Islamic texts to emulate.

We need to expel Islam from our midst AND PROTECT OURSELVES until it rehabilitates itself (which is not our job).

Follow the money.

infidel on December 19, 2006 at 4:21 PM

How much did Clinton and Bush 41 know about where this money was going? They were fund raising for months. Did they even question what the money was being spent on? I think before these two goodwill pimps come hustling for their Islamo-fascist overlords in Saudi Arabia, they need to be honest about what we are paying for.

austinnelly on December 19, 2006 at 4:55 PM

Furthermore, keep in mind these words when discussing Indonesia…”STATE SANCTIONED…STATE CONTROLLED”.

Nothing like this happens in govts like Indonesia without permission, especially if they don’t want to be overrun by Islamo-Nazis. The Islamo-Nazis usurped the money because they were permitted to do so, I believe.

How can Clinton insure that the donated money will be used properly, anyway? Who will help him do so…the cops on RENO 911? Alyce is quite correct when she says that

Concerning Miss Indonesia getting into trouble for wearing a bikini during the beauty pageant…the same thing happened a few years ago to Miss Afghanistan. She wore a bikini and got into trouble with the Afghanistan Islamic Council on Women’s Affairs (or some such entity). I think she faced time in jail. These govts know what beauty contests are all about, so why do they send their women to compete? They know about the revealing outfits that are worn in beauty contests. It does not make sense (no surprise, eh?). It seems that on the one hand, they want to prove that they too have great looking ladies in their countries, but on the other hand, they will punish those ladies for looking great!

In any event, Michelle is quite correct about sending donations to areas where JERKhadists roam about somewhat freely.

Indonesia needs to be watched carefully. As does the Southern Philippines, as does Central and South America. Remember, that the Middle East IS NOT the only place where Islamo-Nazis reside and train to attack us.

Alyce is quite correct when she says that

Sorry! I forgot to finish my sentence…Alyce is quite correct when she stays that…

“Remember helping here should be your #1 priority not some country that is collecting the money to make bombs just to kill our people and beatings of their women and children there.”

Charity begins at home, not somewhere else where their hatred will probably grow for us everyday, especially when we can do for them what they cannot do for themselves.

The False Dervish on December 19, 2006 at 6:23 PM

Sorry again! I seem to be having trouble typing this out and using the quote tabs properly.

The False Dervish on December 19, 2006 at 6:23 PM

Hey isn’t Jay Leno’s wife big on the fair treatment of women? And Oprah is opening her Girl’s school in Africa. Chance for Michelle to make a pitch to one of those folks on something they can see eye to eye.

Drtuddle on December 19, 2006 at 7:11 PM

eeyore on December 19, 2006 at 10:19 AM

And it would divert time/energy away from fighting Chimpy McHitler’s secret plan to keep us all barefoot and pregnant. What, you didn’t know?
