In many middle eastern countries a woman can expect to spend many months in jail if she reports a rape.
Which sounds bizarre from a Western perspective, but here is my guess as to why this is so in Islamic countries.
A woman is generally safe around men in her family and a courtship ordained by her father and a woman in Islamic society that strays from that protection is either one. Sexually immoral or two, interested in aggressive sex.
Three, if they were sexually immoral or purposely straying from family protection, why report a rape. An unchaste woman is essentially subjecting herself to a form of rape or abuse if the sex didn't occur in courtship or marriage, so why report a crime which you subject yourself to anyway. Especially if the crime calls for the death penalty of the person you accuse, especially if you yourself were already guilty of sexual immorality by giving yourself to men you aren't married to or courting.
Why not simply not stray outside of the protection provided by your father and brothers, uncles, etc.?
Islamic tradition regarding where a woman should be is not the same as Western society.

This isn't a problem limited to Islamic society.
It occurs right here in America. Sanctioned by Congress and the President. Freedom of religion.
I seem to recall a high profile rape case of a young girl abducted by a former Mormon. Mormonisms founder manipulated a 14 year old girl into marriage by promising to exalt her entire family into heaven. The young girls name was Helen Mar Kimball. Promising to exalt her father and mother into heaven was violation of Mormon doctrine. Mormons do not believe in Original Sin, they believe that people are held individually accountable for their own actions or sins, not Adam and Eve's transgressions, or their parents.
Essentially this was statutory rape by deception by Joseph Smith Jr, and the girls parents and government who refused to defend her from Smith's deceptions.
Today, the Mormons teach their converts not to date outside of their own belief systems. A Baptist or Methodist is supposed to be avoided. What difference that makes, I have no idea. But it creates rapists by denying them the opportunity to marry someone who baptized into other mainstream churches like Baptists or Methodists if they can't find someone in the Mormon belief system. And creates rapists by victimizing the leader of the household into thinking he should be inviting homeless carpenters to work on his house were his daughter lives in the name of Christian charity.

You guys do realize things like this happen all the time all around the world in different cultures every day right? It's not limited to Islamic refugees. Not saying this isn't horrible but let's try not to blow it out of proportion as if it's the first time it's e ever happened, because it's not.
O
Every culture/race has its bad apples, getting worked up over this one incident while ignoring the hundreds or even thousands of other cases every year just goes to show (in my opinion) that since it's a Muslim that means it's somehow worse than any other case.

That's a whole other thread as to what is Christian or not.
My point was in keeping with the thread topic is that freedom of religion produces rapists in the United States. A first world nation with one of the most powerful militaries and a powerful economy. This nation determines were a lot of the rest of the world goes culturally, politically, economically and determines their philosophy and ideology.
And yet we point the finger at Muslims.

We agree on a lot of things but what I want to know is why they migrate north & west ?
If the UK was under the same conditions as Syria etc I would head to the USA, Canada, Australia , New Zealand I wouldn't take my family to an Arab country .
Why aren't other Arab countries offering them a home.
A friend of mines wife and sister have had issuse with some muslims on the way to work, his sister repeatedly verbally abused until some locals stepped in.
They dont do themselves any favours we have enough a55holrs of our own without importing others

That's your response to my post? If that's the case, then you agree with the Islamic "migrants."
And no, the founding fathers would be using any means necessary to defeat the enemies of our country.
They would be taking up arms to oust our current sitting government, and absolutely would NOT support droves of fighting aged enemies of everything American to take our country over.
Seeing as how you had such strong words for me, answer the question. How many of your own people would you sacrifice to help migrants? How many family members would you give up to help them?

This is what german politics says in response
frontpage.fok.nl...
-Martin Schulz
'wat de vluchtelingen ons land brengen meer waard is dan goud'
Translation: "What these refugees bring to our country is worth more then gold"
Or this
Duitse media en politici geven ondertussen extreemrechts de schuld van de huidige oproer en zeggen dat de moord 'koren op de molen is' voor neonazi's.
Translation: "The german media and politicians are blaming the extreme right for not being ok with the murder, it is food for neonazi's"
So you are a neonazi if you express conern over this. Meanwhile i havent even seen or heard any ACTUAL neonazi group commit murder on them. You would think with all these politicians in defense of these illegitimate refugees that that would reach the news with the greatest ease.
