Reports are surfacing that the head of a West Bank family wants to reward the Iraqi “journalist” who lobbed his shoes at President George W. Bush by sending him a bride. (Editor’s Note: Journalists are supposed to be objective reporters of the news, not advocates trying to make the news.)
Ahmad Salim Judeh says if Muntadhar al-Zeidi is interested the family is willing to send one of their daughters to Iraq along with her dowry. But among the stories there is no outcry from anyone about treating women, who are considered in most cultures to be human, as as an inanimate object to be traded among men with zero consideration for her wishes or well being. This is appalling yet nobody will condemn or even question it.
An AP article simply concludes that, “Al-Zeidi has become something of a folk hero in the Middle East since throwing his shoes at Bush at a Baghdad press conference Sunday. Al-Zeidi is unmarried”
So where are the civil rights screamers? Where are the feminists? Where are the female commentators who beat the crap out of Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell for candidly commenting that that Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano would be a good choice for secretary of Homeland Security because she has no family, which means no life? Maybe Rendell would have been less offensive if he had suggested that Gov. Napolitano’s familiy simply trade her to Obama for three cows and a chicken!
The silence is unbeliveable!
