True, we shouldn't have tried to "bring democracy" to the Middle East through the form of invasions to begin with, thanks Bush and Cheney. That still doesn't give an idiot Christian American the right to attack others because of their faith because all faiths are protected by Freedom of Religion.

Arranging marriage of young daughters was common stuff in those times. Consummation occurred at puberty, typically age 9-10 in that part of the world. This stuff continues to happen in parts of Asia and Africa and it has all to do with culture than religion.

This is how fathers pay off debts.

Anyone ever see a depiction of the Virgin Mary sans the hijab?

Bush and Cheney?
You are kidding, right?

This goes all the way back to 1948. Right after WW-II. That is when the UN got all involved in nation building and placing who would be their puppets in the Middle east. Persia was broken up and only recognized, by states created by the west, instead of the Persian Kingdom.

Because a woman wears a scarf, she dislikes infidels?

What kind of logic is this?
