First of all, if Muslim men are the ones who are oppressed, how is it that in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan raped women are blamed for the rape? If Mrs. Abid likes Islamic culture and law so much, perhaps she should move to a place that has sharia law.

It does not surprise me at all that this woman's friends and colleagues at NBC were taken in by this hook,line and sinker. I'm sure they were thrilled to death to be "friends and colleagues" with her just to show everyone how tolerant they are.

NBC is a far-left leaning news station that is a biased news institution. They are activists, not journalists.

We've also covered the "oh, it's his culture" excuse on here before too.

Some Muslim men don't even let their wives leave the house at all. I wonder if waiting for all that money is worth giving up their freedom?

Stories on here confirm that.

And as far as this blog goes, well, most of the "relationships" on here don't even get a point where the wife can inherit anything---it's usually over long before then.
