Writing in Islam Online, Ali Asadullah is all bent out of shape because Geri Haliwell, formerly of the Spice Girls, did a bare-midrift show for UK troops stationed in Oman.
Geesh, Ali, the Queen’s own are propping up Oman’s two bit regime, and you get all riled over the USO show?
But it gets worse:
“So much has been said recently of the Taliban’s treatment of women, thus focusing inordinate attention on women in Islam.”
The writer would like us to ignore those executions of women in soccer stadiums, the bans on education, and work outside the home. That he thinks these are somehow minor things reveals something I find ugly.
