The dark ages of Kuwaiti women's rights; not over yet
“A Muslim woman should open her eyes and see through all the obscurity.” Perhaps, Mr. Al Qous should follow his own advice. Sometimes, when confronted with such ignorance, all you can do is laugh.

Liberals and their lies
The Daily Star, Tuesday, January 3, 2006

By Ahmed Al-Qous

Gullible and simpleminded people think that granting women their political rights is the end of their demands.
They think that this is the final curtain call on this theatrical farce known as women's rights. However, in truth, it is just the beginning.
I call upon all decent citizens of Kuwait to be on their toes, to put their guards up and not to be deceived by the liberals' deceptive calls for democracy, equality and human rights.
Western countries, lead by the United States, Britain and France are constantly trying to destabilize Muslim countries through their so-called "human rights principles." These principles are in total contradiction with our Islamic laws and are considered interferences in the way Muslims run their affairs.
These western countries offer financial and moral support to the liberals in our country, who in turn, mindlessly mimic their western principles and bring them back to us through their calls for women's rights and equality.
This same approach was tried and tested 90 years ago by the west in Egypt when their liberals were "trained" to fight the hijab and to call for the liberation of Muslim Egyptian women.
Secularism calls for the liberation of women moved from the west to Egypt and then to the rest of the Muslim world.
We are all aware that when women's movements began in Europe, they were driven by their need for equality in wages, which later expanded to their demands for total equality with men in everything, including moral corruption. Women now demand sexual partners and the right to commit adultery.
We ask liberal women and all those who belong to the liberal movement, what do you want for women? In the past, you have called for lifting restrictions on education for women and as a result, today's women are educated, employed and about to enter the National Assembly.
However, this doesn't seem to be enough.
Liberals are now calling for the destruction of the Sharia and Islamic teachings. They are calling for the elimination of inheritance laws and for granting Muslim women the right to marry infidels.
A Muslim woman should open her eyes and see through all the obscurity.
There are many slogans being thrown out by the many parties on the political scene. However, women should listen to their heart and follow the only principles that count, the words of God.
