It is taking the naive a while to wake up to the basic facts of Islamic social behaviour, first because Islamic male behaviour is so obnoxious, and second because a huge social penalty attaches to any honest observation of racial (biological) or cultural (religious) differences. If all cultures are equal, then honour killings are morally allowed. So to get to the point of condemnation, many people feel they have to become “racists” or “culturalists” – believers in the superiority of their own Christian-derived liberal culture.

If so, good.

Christie Blatchford calls them the “magnificently misnamed honour killings“, whereby Muslim men dispose of females who they feel have diminished their “honour”, which appears to consist of women acting in such a way that they appear to believe they have a right to sexual choice and happiness in their mate. They have neither. They are inferior. They are as close to personal property as you can conceive without being slaves. Since everything in Islam is dictated by the revelation from God through Mohammed, recorded in the Word of God in the Koran, the Sacred Word of God, I infer this state of affairs arises not because of some Pakistani hill-tribe social practices, but because these attitudes are authorized by the Koran. And if not, prove it.

I noted that half of the six Canadian women slain by their relatives were Sikh, half Muslim. So maybe we need to cast a more suspicious eye on Sikhism too.

The burden of proof has to shift, from the benign acceptance of Islam or Sikhism as if they were just another flavour of worshipping the Deity, to a much more critical and informed stance.

It is an observable fact to those who have had to share an office or a car with Muslim males (many exceptions exist) that their attitudes towards women seem consist of absolute disdain. They seem no more able to contemplate the equality of women and men than one could contemplate the equality of men with domestic animals. The very idea is absurd.

Now whether this is derived from religion or the culture of the place is really a nice academic question – but has no bearing on the issue of why we are allowing these people to immigrate to this country in such numbers.

It is time to start tarring with the same brush. It is time to revive “stereotypes” to the useful devices they really are; they guide you to understanding without your needing to gain experience the hard way. For many western women, gaining experience with Muslim men is fatal.
