1982 NBHS Graduate - Honorably Discharged from USMC after serving from 7/82-6/86 - Journeyman Telecommunications Technichian.
A labor activist--with a lengthy history of successful civil litigation, (6-0), against the various "Ma Bell" offshoots. Licenced charter boat Capt. actively studying Radical Islam for over 20 years.
I am an unapologetic critic of Islam & feel reform within that religion is key to ultimate victory.
Perhaps Benazir Bhutto's violent death will mean the dawn of a new era in the discussion about how we view Islam... Maybe this death will be the catalyst for meaningful debate about the vast cultural differences between the West & Islam... I'm specifically talking about those lioness' of the 1960's, those militant feminists who were all so willing to wage a guerilla war against "the man" back in the day...
Despite the fact that so many of them now hold positions of power in Academia & Government; the angry, predominately white, Militant women from Students for a Democratic Society & The Weather Underground movement, who were such driving forces behind bombed buildings, dead policeman, murdered judges & kidnapped government officials, have all grown suspiciously quiet in the face of Islamic chauvinism...
Hell... One of the lioness' is even running for President, yet I have not heard one of them openly denounce the systemic culture of sexist oppression so fundamental to Islam, a culture where piousness demands a women be no more than a mans property from birth until the day she dies...
Elsa I hope you understand how little credit I, as a Western Man, now have for your position that you are fighting for the rights of women... For when you don the Hijab in Syria, ignore the role of religion in an Honor killing, or down-play the violence & misogyny so prevalent in Islamic society; all the while impugning your Judea-Christianity heritage, you tell every one quite clearly that you care not for your very own sisters...
Elsa, Ms. Bhutto's death will have been in vain, unless you and the rest of the fair weather feminists pick up her torch... Oriana Fallaci tried, she was vilified by her peers for it... Like wise Phyllis Chesler...
Unfortunately for the 750 million women living under the oppressive yolk of Islam, I'm betting you and your kind don't have the courage to do so... After all, it's infinitely safer to trump up allegations of sexism in Western men, than it is to call into question the abhorrent practices of those men who so piously worship Islam?...

Good article! As one who came of age during the 60's, I soon became disillusioned with a meaningless, hypocitical "feminist revolution" when I discovered that "feminism" never had anything to do with strong successful women, (i.e. Margaret Thatcher, Phyllis Schlafly, etc.). All of the most famous feminists were mental weaklings, financially and emotionally dependent on the very men they spent their careers slandering. "Feminism" has always been and always will be about liberalism, which is why you'll never read glowing puff pieces about successful conservative women. Feminist harpies have spent most of their useless lives lying about them. And don't hold your breath waiting for Hillary to stand up against cultural misogyny. Like her silly feminist friends who seek to be all things to all people, she's nothing more than an aging windbag, not likely to scare up any fear on the part of our enemies, or prevent a confrontation should she be elected (God help us).

And once again you are proved wrong by the facts. Bush wavers over investigation, two of your Lionesses ( Pelosi and HRC) come out and call for an international probe.
