"nothing to do with Islam"?

"nothing to do with Islam"?
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/...21569.html

A woman in France was attacked by a gang of Muslim women because she was wearing a bikini.

"It had nothing to do with Islam" apparently. Yeah I'm scratching my head too.

Fuck your morals.

What's going on in western Europe is frightening. Their Muslim problem is way out of hand and nobody is brave enough to deal with it.

I think the solidarity from other women is great

This is what the West needs more of. If the police won't do anything to stop it, let's piss these people off ourselves more. Not by violence, just by shoving our contempt for their "morals" in their faces. Safety in numbers.

One would have wondered the EU government would have been doing something about this.
Atheism is a non-prophet organization join today.

Their explantion was that it was a fight between girl gangs. Is that a problem in France?

RE: "nothing to do with Islam"?
I watched a Tariq Ramadan video recently. He made Islam sound like a new-age, self-help journey of personal development, celebrating diversity and women's rights. It's like bizarro world.

How is it that this one religion can be interpreted in two radically different ways? Islam must be as nebulous and ill-defined as a pot of tea leaves.

Or Tariq is just putting lipstick on a ...

I want to make this absolutely clear:

Islam is nothing to do with Islam.

OK then.

If people who dress "immodestly" are asking to be raped then surely people who wear a veil are asking for abuse? They stand out so they must be wanting to highlight the fact they are different. What was that? People who are deliberately trying to be anti-social and alienating themselves from the rest of society want to be taken seriously? Erm...right...

RE: "nothing to do with Islam"?
Ok having had time to gather my thoughts on this, I really do have a problem with this "nothing to do with Islam" argument.

Of course it has everything to do with Islam, and you can't divorce it. People are products of the environment they were raised in. These people were raised in the religion, and until the day they wake up and realise they've been conned, they are products of the religion. In exactly the same way as an abused child will probably end up depressed and lacking confidence as a product of their abuse, any views and actions of these people are products of the fact that they were raised Muslim. They just can't take a commentary on what the religion has molded them into, so we have to gloss over it and say "oh no, it's not your religion" just to appease them.

If Muslim women should be attacking anyone, it should be the Muslim men who force Muslim women to cover themselves up and be their bitches.

Fuck this ignorant sexist religion.
