Welcome to Barack Hussein Obama's New Egypt; where the seeds of "democracy" were nurtured by his decisive leadership on the world stage.

Democracy - a system of government where the majority rules.

Egypt - a country populated with Muslims.

Egyptian democracy - A wonderful new experiment in the democratic process, where females are subjugated, raped, humiliated, and forced to undergo "virginity tests", lest they face being accused of prostitution - a most serious crime to a population of Scuzlim misogynists. Now all those nasty, dirty "free" Egyptian women with their evil notions of equality, participation, and humanity, who've been prancing around like whores with their hair showing can take their rightful place in the new democracy.

...And Amnesty Int'l? Phhht... "Egypt must do this, and must stop doing that..." Please, gimme a f**king break. You're talking about Scuzlims. Your outrage is useless, wasted, vapid. If you want to help the women of Egypt, then be prepared to denounce Barack Hussein Obama, and be prepared to call for the killing of Muslims, because otherwise your outrage is pissing in the ocean.

Egyptian women protesters forced to take ‘virginity tests’

Amnesty International has today called on the Egyptian authorities to investigate serious allegations of torture, including forced ‘virginity tests’, inflicted by the army on women protesters arrested in Tahrir Square earlier this month.

After army officers violently cleared the square of protesters on 9 March, at least 18 women were held in military detention. Amnesty International has been told by women protesters that they were beaten, given electric shocks, subjected to strip searches while being photographed by male soldiers, then forced to submit to ‘virginity checks’ and threatened with prostitution charges.

‘Virginity tests’ are a form of torture when they are forced or coerced.

"Forcing women to have ‘virginity tests’ is utterly unacceptable. Its purpose is to degrade women because they are women," said Amnesty International. "All members of the medical profession must refuse to take part in such so-called 'tests'."

20-year-old Salwa Hosseini told Amnesty International that after she was arrested and taken to a military prison in Heikstep, she was made, with the other women, to take off all her clothes to be searched by a female prison guard, in a room with two open doors and a window.  During the strip search, Salwa Hosseini said male soldiers were looking into the room and taking pictures of the naked women.

The women were then subjected to ‘virginity tests’ in a different room by a man in a white coat. They were threatened that “those not found to be virgins” would be charged with prostitution.

According to information received by Amnesty International, one woman who said she was a virgin but whose test supposedly proved otherwise was beaten and given electric shocks.

“Women and girls must be able to express their views on the future of Egypt and protest against the government without being detained, tortured, or subjected to profoundly degrading and discriminatory treatment,” said Amnesty International.
 
“The army officers tried to further humiliate the women by allowing men to watch and photograph what was happening, with the implicit threat that the women could be at further risk of harm if the photographs were made public.”
 
Journalist Rasha Azeb was also detained in Tahrir Square and told Amnesty International that she was handcuffed, beaten and insulted.

Following their arrest, the 18 women were initially taken to a Cairo Museum annex where they were reportedly handcuffed, beaten with sticks and hoses, given electric shocks in the chest and legs, and called “prostitutes”.

Rasha Azeb could see and hear the other detained women being tortured by being given electric shocks throughout their detention at the museum. She was released several hours later with four other men who were also journalists, but 17 other women were transferred to the military prison in Heikstep

Testimonies of other women detained at the same time collected by the El Nadeem Center for Rehabilitation of Victims of Violence are consistent with Rasha Azeb and Salwa Hosseini’s accounts of beatings, electrocution and ‘virginity tests’.

“The Egyptian authorities must halt the shocking and degrading treatment of women protesters. Women fully participated in bringing change in Egypt and should not be punished for their activism,” said Amnesty International.

“All security and army forces must be clearly instructed that torture and other ill-treatment, including forced ‘virginity tests’, will no longer be tolerated, and will be fully investigated. Those found responsible for such acts must be brought to justice and the courageous women who denounced such abuses be protected from reprisals.”

All 17 women detained in the military prison were brought before a military court on 11 March and released on 13 March. Several received one-year suspended prison sentences.

Salwa Hosseini was convicted of disorderly conduct, destroying private and public property, obstructing traffic and carrying weapons.

Amnesty International opposes the trial of civilians before military courts in Egypt, which have a track record of unfair trials and where the right to appeal is severely restricted.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

There's that word again: unacceptable. Liberals always use that word. Steyn recently penned an article about that, and he summarizes their use of the word thus:

Quote
When a western politician says something’s “unacceptable”, the rest of the planet understands it means “carry on until it drops off the front page, and I no longer have to talk about it”.

And you're right, spare us the vapid outrage. So Egypt must do this, must stop that? Or else what? You're going to send in the 1st Amnesty International Armored Division?

If the Republicans had a handful of brain cells between them they could make Obama and his band of "OMG it's the Facebook revolution!!!1 Kewl!!!" sycophants take ownership of this. Their nonstop boosterism has led directly to the transformation of an erstwhile ally into an Islamic theocracy.

It was a democratic decision that women should receive virginity tests was it not?

Oh yeah baby. I think it's pretty democratic when the majority of a group of men vote to stone a woman to death too.

Good Lord, but if He would bless me with the opportunity someday to come upon this kind of institutional abuse of women and girls with a loaded weapon in my hands. Let my holy bullet give your muslim skull a virginity test. Oops, you failed, your skull's not a virgin.

It is reported today that, during interrogation questioning, Mubarak had a heart attack.
Initially, the Arab world perceived Obama as walking away from an ally when he turned his back to Mubarak.  The House of Saud, long time ally of  the US, was shocked and, quite rightly, sought alliances and trade agreements with other nations.

Did the Saudis assume this now revealed ill treatment of Mubarak to be the expected course or are they now doubly shocked that the great healer Obama has remained silent to this treatment?

In the West we'd simply be happy that the S.O.B. was gone . Not so the Middle East ... Several pounds of flesh must be excised from the fallen leader for transgressions real or perceived . It's the Arab Way . Even as things change they remain the same .

Yeah, I heard this AM his 15 day interrogation will take place at the hospital, they want to wring whatever info and confessions out of him in an environment that can resuscitate him if he starts slipping away...
