Because women need to be "protected" from themselves and dominated by primitive, hairy men.

Houthis round up Yemen's Jews as part of 'ethnic cleansing' efforts
Local sources from Kharif told Al-Mesryoon that the Houthis had rounded up the Jews and imprisoned them due to their religion and were pressuring them to leave Yemen.
They forced the Jews to sign pledges to sell their homes, land and property to Houthi leaders at nominal prices and then leave the country.
The Houthis have reportedly persecuted the few Jews left in Yemen by cutting off their water and electricity and preventing them from purchasing food. The rebel group uses similar practices against non-Shi'ite Yemenis and Yemenis from other religions, according to Al-Mesryoon.
Yemen’s Information Minister Moammer al-Iryani stated in 2017 that the state of the 50 or so remaining Jews in the country was "unknown."
A popular Houthi slogan includes the phrase "Curse the Jews."

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

What is it with Muslims and targeting other people in their temples?

While Islam can certainly be abhorrent ... does anybody else here deem this thread to be bigoted?

Nope. We also have "damned Christians", "damned Jews", and "damned atheists" threads.

So being bigoted about three groups of people cancels it all out into non-bigotry?
