How long will Sweden have the will to continue to proseecute such cases? Clash of Civilizations Update: "Man jailed for daughter's circumcision," from Sweden's The Local, with thanks to Twostellas:
A man who arranged for his daughter to be circumcised has been jailed for four years by Gothenburg District Court.The man was found guilty of taking his daughter to Somalia to have her genitals mutilated. The case was the first prosecution under a Swedish law against female circumcision introduced back in 1982.
The man, a 41-year old Swedish citizen who has lived in the country since the eighties, had denied the charges against him. He said that other people had carried out the crime on his daughter, who was 12-years old when the procedure took place last year....
The father has been told to pay compensation for 300,000 kronor to his daughter. She had demanded 650,000 kronor.
Can't they just ship them all back to Somalia as they don't seem to be capable of living in a modern European country let alone in this millennia.
She should have demanded HIS genitals.
The feminist-Marxist media prefers to "mistakenly" describe clitorodectomy as circumcision. The latter would enhance the female's orgasmic pleasure; the former eliminates that.
Much like the Demos and RINOs have ruined the Constitution by "mistakenly" interpreting it, as in private use = corporate HQ.
Thos same fake-mistake phenomenon is afoot in connection with Dhimmi backchannel promotion of IZlahm, which ain't known to be overly protective of the genitalia, even if plenty odd:
610 * 623 * 732* 1066* 1215 * 1453 * 1492 * 1683 * 1928 * 1938 * 1948 * 1996 * 2001 *
Whoever performs ablution should clean his nose with water by putting the water in it and then blowing it out, and whoever cleans his private parts with stones should do it with odd number of stones.

The Region: A review that speaks volumes
By BARRY RUBIN
In a shocking anti-Israel diatribe, the New York Times correspondent in Jerusalem has revealed both his profound personal bias and basic acceptance of Hamas's political claims.
These revelations came in a review by Steven Erlanger in the International Herald Tribune of June 23 (reprinted from the Times) of Hamas. Politics, Charity and Terrorism in the Service of Jihad by Matthew Levitt, currently a deputy assistant secretary of the US Treasury department.
Erlanger spends little time covering the actual contents of the book, but instead launches an attack on the book's premises, sources and on Israeli policy.
The most important aspect of the review is Erlanger's complaint that Levitt "does not discuss (and never even seems to entertain) the premise that Palestinians have a right to resist a 40- year Israeli occupation and partial annexation of their land."
He says that Hamas is popular because of the existence of Jewish settlements, the separation barrier, restrictions on Palestinian movements and "the failure by Israelis to support those in Fatah committed to nonviolence, like President Mahmoud Abbas..."
CLEARLY, ERLANGER views the conflict from a radical Palestinian standpoint, probably without consciously understanding why his statement demonstrates this fact. Hamas itself and its main supporters do not hold their views because of anger at Israel's presence in the West Bank and Gaza Strip - now greatly diminished, though Erlanger appears unaware of this - but due to a desire to wipe Israel off the map.
Apparently, though, Erlanger views anti-Israel extremism - the factor that is maintaining all the issues he mentions - as merely a reaction to Israeli policies. Yet, to cite only two examples, both Hamas and Fatah rejected both peace with a Palestinian state in 2000 and Israel's withdrawal from the Gaza Strip because they saw such developments as undermining their drive to keep the conflict going until they can attain total victory.
Equally absurd is Erlanger's blaming Palestinian extremism on an Israeli failure to help Abbas. Leaving aside past Israeli funding of that leader's budget, military restraint, the turning over to him of the Gaza Strip and the recent giving of guns to his forces, it ignores Abbas's unwillingness to do anything moderate.
Abbas is hardly committed to nonviolence. To cite only one example, his recent endorsement of the "prisoners' letter" explicitly endorses violence against Israelis. Hamas's success is certainly related to Fatah's incompetence and corruption as well as the nationalist group's refusal to offer an alternative, moderate program, but that is hardly Israel's fault.
WHILE ERLANGER would no doubt condemn terrorism, it is also shocking that he does not see that terrorism is not exactly covered by a right to resist occupation. The way he expresses all these issues is the same way that Hamas and Fatah propaganda explain them.
And yet Erlanger is accurately explaining the thinking that lies behind most of the Times coverage, the view that Israeli is responsible for the conflict, Abbas is a moderate victim and Hamas is an understandable reaction to Israeli misdeeds.
It should be remembered that Osama bin Laden and the terrorists in Iraq also justify their deeds, including September 11, as falling under a right to resist occupation.
ON TWO other points, Erlanger makes interesting observations. First, he is obsessed with Levitt's use of sources, complaining that the author employs material from a research center associated with Israel's government and has worked at a think tank - the Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center of the Center for Special Studies - "considered friendly to Israel." Thus, he concludes, "There will be readers of this book who will see it as fronting for the Israeli intelligence establishment and its views."
Of course, Erlanger is signaling people that they should reach this conclusion.
This kind of writing is inappropriate because the research center in question is almost exclusively merely translating Palestinian documents and texts.
At any rate, the proper course for Erlanger would have been to point out some error or questionable interpretation by Levitt based on his use of this material. Instead, we have guilt by association.
I think that what Erlanger is really doing here is revealing his own fear of being branded pro-Israel if he pays too much attention - or at times merely reports - Israel's side of the story. There is a constant tendency to take Palestinian sources at face value but to energetically challenge Israeli sources, which have proven far more reliable.
Finally, Erlanger is insistent on a very curious argument. He spends a lot of the review criticizing Levitt for not agreeing that the most important aspect of Hamas is trying to Islamicize Palestinian society rather than fighting against Israel.
Ironically, this contradicts his claim that Hamas and its supporters are motivated by Israeli actions. But obviously both fighting Israel and Islamicizing Palestinian society are goals of Hamas. Indeed, Hamas believes that continuing to fight Israel, ignoring Israeli concessions and ensuring that peace fails is the best way to build support for an Islamist revolution among Palestinians.
Why, then, is Erlanger obsessed with this distinction? I suggest that what Erlanger is actually saying is that what is really bad about Hamas is not that it is a racist, terrorist group with genocidal intentions against Israelis but that it is an Islamist organization. If, after all, Hamas is exercising a just right of resistance motivated by Israeli misdeeds, how can it be condemned on those grounds? The trouble with Hamas is that it is a "right-wing" religious group rather than a "left-wing" nationalist one.
The bottom line of all these points is that after reading Erlanger's review it is impossible to take seriously the idea that he is a fair reporter or has a good understanding of the contemporary issues he is covering.

Last week in Melbourne a female doctor was killed.
It was in the news but it was all hushed up, a few hijabbed females in the neighborhood were interviewed about it, and they all "knew nothing" of course.
A "man" was covered up with a blanket and taken away by a police-car, his hands were black. Since then: Silence....
In France and Scandinavia quite a few doctors have been attacked and murdered by Mohammedans, I think it was reported here on JW/DW....
I have written to Andrew Bolt from the Herald Sun about it, he might be able to push this into the open....
Alarmed-
Just about to note the same detail:
there is no such thing as "female circumcision".
It is mutilation. Period.
Utterly unnecessary for a woman's anatomy.
The ancient Egyptians began the male version of this procedure.
My uro-genital-anthropological theory... only half-tongue-in-cheek... being that all that damned desert grit was getting irritating in the ka/ba followers' "nether regions". And so they removed the "sand trap". (Curiously "ka" in the old lingo of Egypt is one form of the spirit in the afterlife, and the "ba" another... so, put them together, and you get "Ka'aba"? A free idea for a philology/linguistic student's thesis.)
FGM -female genital mutilation- is to assert male dominance, prevent female pleasure, and maintain control a woman's "most precious part" -to the patriarchal posioned mind: the hymen.
(And I don't mean Kaplan.)
A Crusader-era chastity belt would be a humanitarian quantum leap to these medievally moronic sadists.
Alarmed Pig Farmer,
Those kinds of things from the Ahadith which you quoted -- and there are literally thousands of things to quote relating to eveything under the sun in life besides FGM -- I think should be regularly published as an auxiliary to Jihad Watch: It should be called Islamic OCD Watch: they illustrate the Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder that is inculcated in Islam which undergirds the totalitarianist pathology which, in turn, nourishes both the supremacist psychology of Muslims and Jihad itself.
Good that he's in prison for a crime essentially carried out in another country. This does send the message: don't bring your disgusting practices back here, even indirectly.
IMO if the swedes had any remnant of their viking forebears testicles, they would do a Hamurabi on this loving father and say that it was "culturally necessary". Of course, he could have them back after surgery, but only in a formalin jar.

About an hour ago, influential Australian television program “A Current Affair” (ABC) has asked viewers to phone in and vote on the question: “Can Muslims be patriotic Australians” – or words to that effect, a resounding NO vote would send a clear message to politicians about the nature of public unease regarding Muslim immigration. So please vote ‘NO” – Phone: 1902 552 202

I’ve been told on good authority, very good authority, that when the Abyssinians migrated to our city, frequent “person bleeding”911 calls started up. The firemen would show up only to find a terrified 11-yr old girl bleeding from the vaginal area, screaming bloody murder as the women of the household danced around excitedly ululating in sympathy. The man of the house would stand there, unapologetic, with scissors or razor in hand and impatiently demand that the girl be taken to the hospital.
Two things emerged from this pattern:
1) Firemen, EMTs, and cops were sternly warned that they’d be fired if they made an arrest or leaked to the press in such an event. So it is possible for public servants to be fired.
2) The practice of FGM, a felony, was quietly moved by the Liberals (aka Marxists) into local medical arts buildings where young Moslem docs (schooling paid for by the U.S. taxpayers) could administer to the special needs of Abyssinian culture.

Bigamy is here, too. Only, unlike with the Mormons, this bigamy is practiced with U.S. taxpayer subsidy in the form of Section 8, AFDC, Food Stamps, SBA, MediCare, and the like.

It’s what Fitzgerald said: higher education has collapsed in this country, and in the West in general. But, in the first instance, is it possible for a Sociology Department to collapse, or was it instituted that way?

FWIW - 300,000 Swedish Kronor is approximately $41,000 US. Small compensation for being mutilated for life.
I agree with Freewoman - "an eye for an eye" so to speak.

Should this apply in Shariah it would be only half of man's organ (sorry to be so bitterly crude!)
It would be great if the man behind this poor girl's mutilation was given a taste of his own medicine, but we know that's not going to happen. Knowing how soft on crime the PC multiculturalist fools in Europe are, we'll be lucky if the lowlife even spends time in jail. Pathetic.
Polish infideless-
I agree.
And it should be the left half of said member.
Since that is the 'unclean' half, in Muslo-think.
Let him try to live with that reminder.
