Incredible

I started reading this symposium at FrontPage magazine to primarily find out what Robert Spencer had to say but I was pleasantly shocked by Ali Sina. Ali utterly and ruthlessly tore apart Mohamed El-Mallah's and Julia Roach's arguments. These two Islamic apologists simply got pummeled.
Muslim women are not allowed to have any libido. It is not pious for women to have sexual feelings. In fact the genital mutilation is designed to take away any sexual pleasure from them. Women are not supposed to enjoy sex. If they have any libido, there is a risk that they may fornicate and commit sin. Women must only provide satisfaction to their husbands and deny all their own sexual needs. According to a tradition: Allah's Apostle said, "If a husband calls his wife to his bed (i.e. to have sexual relation) and she refuses and causes him to sleep in anger, the angels will curse her till morning." Bukhari 4.54.450 It is hilarious to think that the angels have nothing better to do than sit around and curse the poor woman all the night for depriving them from watching the live porno show.
I intially laughed at that but then the misery and suffering of Muslim women is no laughing matter.
In one sense this is all truly very funny. But in another, much larger sense, it is a tragedy.
Yes, it is and thank you Ali for being so bold in telling the truth.
