@thegirdlengr Religion is such poison . It's disgusting that the extent people are willing to go even harming their own children due to their rabbish delusional backward beliefes and imaginary god.

When I was detained in Tehran in 1999 in the ayatollahs' prison,
I could never have imagined that one could also be imprisoned in the West for the same reason.

The day before yesterday, it was announced in the United States that they have a comprehensive plan to fight Islamophobia.
What might this national plan entail?
Criminalising "Islamophobia" and making it punishable?

Here in Belgium too, UNIA wants to do the same and as a member of parliament, I have been trying to stop this for years with debates in parliament. More and more people are trying to silence people who criticise Islam.
However, it is a fundamental right to be able to criticise religions and political views.

When I was detained in a prison of Ayatollah Khamenei in 1999 at 23 for criticising the way I was marginalised as a woman by Islam as a second-rate gender, I never imagined that I could ever face a prison sentence in the West because of the same criticism.

Why should I not be allowed to say that many aspects in Islamic law violate human dignity and fundamental rights? Will I be prosecuted for Islamophobia because of that? Where would that leave my civil rights and freedoms? I did not flee an Islamic country only to lose my freedom of speech in this country, because of such a thoughtless proposal.

Islam is a religion that has not yet experienced enlightenment and many discriminatory rules from thousands of years ago, institutionalised in this religion, are still in force.
Moreover, Islamism is a pernicious ideology that wants to conquer the world.

In the Muslim world, there are many critics who openly criticise it, even if they have to pay with their lives, because Sharia law is not tolerant.

In the West, under the guise of religious freedom, the radical Muslims try to further perpetuate their discriminatory views, especially against women. And anyone who criticises them is called polarising, stigmatising and Islamophobic.

And sometimes they can get right with some "progressives", who themselves, in the not so distant past, stood up against certain rules of another religion.
But now, suddenly, they are no longer critics of gender inequality or so many other discriminatory rules of Islam.
Because of their cultural relativism, they are abandoning millions of women and young girls, including here with us.

While Western civilisation waits for "enlightened" Islam and it is believed that the change must come from the Muslims themselves, some of them abandon the reforming critical eyes and silence them because it is allegedly "stigmatising".

Maybe they believe in miracles, but all I see in this way is an evolution towards a dark future.

The West urgently needs a wake-up call to ensure the future of our posterity.

That should be our mission.

The left picture is a picture of me in Iran. The right photo is who I am today, free from the yoke of Islamic oppression.

It is heartbreaking how always innocent civilians suffer the greatest loss and pain in war. I hope for a day when humans stop slaughtering each other,where we stop differences from dividing us and conflicts resvoled peacefully. Although it might be unrealistic given human nature.

@thegirdlengr This is so terrible and such a barbaric practice. I am so sorry she went through this hell.💔😭 It's insane how some think they have the right to ruin others' lives due to their delusional belifies. When are people going to stop violating and enforcing things on others?

@GullHaya93696 Omg! that looks so beautifully breathtaking. May I ask where is that place in Norway ?
Thank you.

Jeg anbefaler absolutt å lese den for å lære og passe bedre inn i kulturen.

"Saudi Arabia has sentenced a secondary schoolgirl to 18 years in jail and a travel ban for posting tweets in support of political prisoners" -- the latest example of the crown prince's utter intolerance of independent critical voices. https://t.co/CGFdvTWntI

@t_alaziz نظام الحكم بالسعودية هو الملكية المطلقة.
محمد ب�� سلمان لديه الصلاحية والقدرة على تغيير النظام بكلمة منه.
هل فعليا أنت مصدق انو لايمكنه تغيير القوانين؟
كلامه مجرد أكاذيب ومحاولات فاشلة للترقيع.

حكمت المحكمة الجزائية المتخصصة بالرياض على منال صالح القفيري في أغسطس الماضي بالسجن لمدة 18 عامًا مع منع من السفر بسبب تغريدات قد عبرت فيها عن آرائها.

القفيري كانت في سن السا��عة عشرة من عمرها وهي طالبة في المرحلة الثانوية حينما قامت السلطات السعودية باعتقالها.

MBS told Fox News 'bad laws' led to the death sentence for Mohammed al-Ghamdi over his tweets.

Not so fast - here's a fact check on that w/ @joey_shea, @MENA_Rights, @tahaalhajji + @SANAD_en:

[Joey Shea @joey_shea]

🚩MBS is getting facts wrong about his own laws. Fox &others havent corrected the record:

The "bad law" leading to a death sentence for tweets was reissued in 2017 --after MBS rose to power.

Death sentences have been meted out for tweets *only* under MBS

Why is the symbol of discrimination and oppression of women glorified in the West under the guise of "inclusive society"?

Next month, a new statue, reportedly the world's first of its kind, will be unveiled in a setting near Birmingham, UK, in honour of women who wear the hijab.

The five-metre-high statue, created by Luke Perry, is called "the strength of #hijab “.
Not only is it unacceptable, it is truly dangerous for the future.
The glorification of this kind of "chastity clothing" for a woman undermines the struggle for women's emancipation and self-determination and is counterproductive for women's rights and progress.
