This is an astute observation written by As'ad AbuKhalil, regarding the duplicity (or should I say prejudice?) of Western sentiment. He is the author of the Angry Arab News Service HERE. Do yourself a favor and visit his site.

"More Arab women are killed annually by Israeli occupation forces than those who die from FGM [female genitilia mutilation] and "honor" crimes combined. Yet, Western feminists don't seem to care for the victims of Israeli violence. If you set up an organization in the Arab world to advocate against FGM, millions in US/Europe/UN aid will come your way. And if you set up an organization to advocate against Israeli killing of Palestinian women and children, the organization will be immediately added to the list of terrorist organizations."
