More of the same disgusting “the Quran made me do it” stuff.
Today Jonah Goldberg from NRO took part in a chat at The LA Times online. I was there, and I actually had the opportunity to get a question in about this issue, and here’s what I asked, along with Jonah’s response:

SistaInfidel: Since today is International Women’s Day, any thoughts/comments on the convenient omission of Islam
when most organizations (and lefty websites) describe the
opression of women?
Jonah_Goldberg: Sista, i think that’s a great subject. I think
it gets to the heart of t he problem of both the UN which
covers the butts of bad countries and multiculturalism
because it won’t attack the self-esteem, as it were, of some
of its constituents.
Very true. They can’t “offend” all the Muslims who are supporting (by not condemning) their own Islamic brothers comitting all the crimes against women (though make no mistake, in a lot of these countries these “crimes” aren’t even against the law). The truth is that the U.N. doesn’t truly care about what’s happening to the women, they only care about looking like they do. Just making statements doesn’t make something true, when actions and behavior prove otherwise.when most organizations (and lefty websites) describe the
