That was a common sense question I think. Because muslims don't take criticism of them from non muslims seriously. If a muslim leader's criticism can have much more effective than non muslims , then why not ask them to critisize? Every group need to be reformed internally ,but since muslims don't try to change internally and are incapable of taking external criticism too , so called progressive leaders like ilah Omar should speak out loud on whar are going wrong in their community. But unfortunately she was just another muslim who can't critisize or bring reform to her community,instead like a typical muslim she chose to attack a person who had told her to do something good to her community. I think this tells something about muslims that no matter how progressive muslims may be they can't go against the wrongs committed in their religion or community. Their community rules over them . If these kind of people run an entire country it means the entire country is being run by just one community who can't take its criticism .

Veiled accusation or not, it was a bad question. "You're a Muslim woman - can you publicly condemn FGM?" I haven't heard anyone pose a similar question to Christian male politicians. "You're a Christian male - would you publicly condemn fundamentalist Christian parents letting their children suffer and die because they rely on faith healing instead of seeking medical care - every time you speak publicly?" Obviously, there is more to people than their religion and gender. But when someone sees you as an "other," all they tend to see is what they think makes you different.

@cameronhodgetts920 5 лет назад
I can't imagine she would say that. Her stance, and the stance of any moral individual, seems to be that FGM is an abhorrent act, which it is. Those who commit such a heinous act can't be viewed as good people, because of the nature of their actions. The point was that the questioner, and many of the "old Americans" - conservative, white, mid-Western Christian bigots (I don't mean to slate the mid-West or Christianity, it's just that the trends indicate that this is where the most hate comes from) - who support bigoted, homophobic, sexist, racist politicians like pretty much every member of the Trump administration, minus a few, or the British Parliamentary Cabinet, make the racist and biased assumption that they would be in support of such a heinous crime, when in actuality, it's far more likely that people like the Trumpists would be in support of such a misogynistic act as FGM. It's clear to see that Omar is completely against the demonized view of her otherwise fascinating and wise religion, that has been caused by middle-eastern radicals, and the word-of-mouth bigotry that sadly continues to exist today in the Western world, thanks largely to the media bias and the power of the hate mongers. So no, I don't think there's any way she would say "there are good people on both sides".

I wish most people would do some research before asking such questions. This practice is not done in Islamic countries. It's mainly a practice done in African countries, Islamic and Christian. It's a cultural matter that is being abolished across the continent. I know about it because I went through it and it has nothing to do with Islam.

@@maazkalim i guess so. This is not a practice that is mentioned in Islam. Do many Islamic countries practice it? Yes as do many Christian countries as it mainly cultural. Now via education many of us women educated are stopping the practice when it comes to our kids. Growing up I was teased by my friends for not having it done to me and I had to ask my mom to do and she was reluctant but it did happen but mine was done by an aunt and at a hospital. Other young girls have it hard and some end up bleeding to death in rural communities.

Maybe they should condemn marrying your own brother like she did fur entry into the country she’ keeps saying the system needs to be torn down to see who is benefiting. Or being married to two people at the same time. Which neither of them were her brother so now that is two issues but yet we are not done. Then we have documentation that proves she committed tax fraud because she never divorced her first husband who she married a second time, then had an affair with her now husband but never divorced the one she married twice. Funny she wants to tear down our system that she sought asylum to, including her mother and father, to find out who is benefiting from it when just days prior she deposited $879,000 in her husbands account, that she has committed marriage fraud, tax fraud , illegal entry of her brother by lying and marrying him . This is all after a 6 month investigation with papers from outs, IRS etc. not anonymous sources. So she can STFU.

​@@thedstorm8922 This is completely inaccurate. Egypt is 90% Muslim with only about 10% Christians while 87.2% of the female population undergoes FGM. Out of these FGM operations almost 100% are done on Muslim women (see "Prevalence of female genital cutting among Egyptian girls"), in fact the Coptic Orthodox Christians VIA their Pope have explicitly stated that FGM is both unhealthy and unacceptable within the faith. Now Kenya is 70% Christian with an FGM rate of about 28%, of these 28% nearly all are conducted on the indigenous tribes and Muslims (see "28 too many Kenya profile"). Tanzania is believed to be about 60 to 36 Christian-Muslim with some indigenous tribes and their FGM rate is believed to be about 10%, uniquely Tanzania appears to have a 20% FGM rate from Christians and 15% from Muslims. South Sudan has only been a recognized nation for less than a decade and there are essentially no real studies to draw conclusions from so I cannot address that one. Lastly, Ethiopia is about 43% Orthodox Christian and 34% Muslim with some 20% Protestants. Ethiopia has an FGM rate of 65.2% and it seems to be practiced across all of the nation but at a higher rate in Muslims with the official statistics being 82.2% of Muslim women, 54.2% of Orthodox women and 65.8% of Protestant women (see "28toomany Ethiopia").

@Callum Finlayson-Palmer Protestants burned witches. (17th century Puritans to be exact.) Catholics burned people they considered to be heretics - not witches. In fact, the medieval Catholic Church publicly stated that they didn’t believe in witches, and that this was a pagan superstition. Widespread Christian fear of and belief in witches came later - very late medieval era and post Reformation. The rest of your comment is accurate though and raises a good point about the hypocrisy of the woman’s question. (Forgive my correction. I’m a history major and the witch burning misconception drives me nuts lol)

@john carioscia So what your saying is that it's the fault of black people and has nothing to do with American history. They are just lazy and dont want to work and would rather complain. There is absolutely no external force that could have possibly been an obstacle for them. It has everything to do with being black and nothing to do with anything else. Yeah..... that's basically what a racist believes.
@rayzor5289
@rayzor5289 5 лет назад
@john carioscia I fundamentally agree with what you said regarding working hard and not asking for handouts. But even if we take your stance that the playing field is not even, it hasn't been even for that long. The rest of the country had a big head start in building wealth. Most Americans that run companies are still white and some don't want to necessarily hire the black guy; it happens. Plus Trump got elected because of low income white people feeling forgotten and "complaining" about not finding work or working and still unable to make ends meet. They still exist, not all of those 7 million jobs were for black people. I'm not saying that some black people aren't straight up lazy and play the race card as a scapegoat, but you are on the opposite side of the spectrum by acting like all of them refuse to work and point to nothing other than their race.
