Skirting the issue there a bit (no pun intended). The problem is larger than a "woman's issue".   But as to how they are treated in Muslim society---that is a whole other topic. Their cultural background is not that of Western civilization and much as I abhor it I surely cannot judge it. If they are frustrated (as they should be by my western and modern culture) then that is the issue---not their dealings with Israel and other such situations.   Ah---but what myster lies beneath that veil. Probably beats getting the western face-lifts all the time for vanity. A little humour always helps---don't you think---Carol?
