Counter-intuitively, a growing number of females participate in Jihad.

They martyr themselves for a religion that is so oppressive to women that it instructs them to wear burqas. Some women’s beautiful eyes made even a burqa too immodest. Why would women want 72 virgins? Why would they want eternal erections?

I think humor is one of the strongest weapons you can use against terrible ideas. Forgive the potentially jarring lack of a proper segue into more serious discussion.

Show me the rupees

Many organizations affiliated with Islamic terrorism will financially reward the families of so-called martyrs of the Jihad. This is in large part because the typical suicide bomber is a young male, and a significant breadwinner in his household.

But there is an element of surprise (tactically speaking) to using a child or a woman. I suppose this is why Hamas TV recently ran a propaganda piece celebrating females in the Jihad movement. The video gets especially depressing near the end when they flash through the faces of young women in their goodbye videos. One female suicide bomber was holding a small child, presumably just before her death.

Why hasn’t women’s liberation swept through the Arabic nations yet?

(**edit: Obviously, there are people trying to make it happen. Have some money? Donate here or here. No money? Just get informed, and get vocal.**)

Why does it often take atheists to correct oppressive extremist religious doctrine?

Words can’t describe the feelings I get when I look at this image.
