Pamela Geller: Michelle Obama “sees herself” in UK Muslim women

Jun 21, 2015 5:29 pm By Robert Spencer

Michelle Obama Mulberry SchoolThe First Lady passes up an opportunity to speak out about real oppression. “Michelle O. ‘sees herself’ in British Muslim women,” by Pamela Geller, WND, June 21, 2015:

Michelle Obama recently visited the U.K., where, according to The Mirror, she “compared her struggle to succeed as a young black woman in America to the experience of inner-city Muslim girls.”

She “struggled to hold back tears,” said the Mirror, as she spoke to an audience of hijab-wearing Muslim girls at the Mulberry School for Girls in London’s notorious Muslim area, Tower Hamlets.

“Girls like you inspire me and impress me every single day,” she said. “When I look out at all these young women, I see myself. In so many ways, your story is my story.”

In saying this, Michelle Obama was implying that both she and the Muslim girls she was addressing faced oppression, discrimination and disadvantage. She was, in other words, advancing the false Muslims-as-victims narrative that Islamic advocacy groups such as the Hamas-tied Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR, work so hard to cultivate in the U.S.

Michelle Obama did not, of course, address the fact that the primary source of the oppression and discrimination that these Muslim girls face and will face in the future is their own families – primarily their fathers and husbands.

The first lady could have called upon these girls to reject the Shariah misogyny that devalues women’s testimony and inheritance rights, reduces women to commodity status via polygamy, sanctions their beating and makes them vulnerable to genital mutilation and honor killing. But she didn’t dare say anything about any of that.

What she did say was extremely odd. Michelle sees herself in the gender apartheid under Islamic law? Was Michelle held down by her mother and other female relatives while they cut her clitoris off? The U.K.’s “failure to stop FGM is a ‘national scandal.’” There have been 170,000 victims of female genital mutilation, a practice justified under Islamic law, in Britain, and yet there were no prosecutions of any of the perpetrators until this year. Where is Michelle Obama’s hashtag about that?

Michelle sees herself in the British Shariah courts, where the appalling treatment of women and children at the hands of the Shariah court “justices” goes unpunished? Shariah law courts have become a parallel legal system in the U.K. They justify and legislate extensive abuse of women, refuse to grant even abused women divorces, charge the woman but not the man for divorce proceedings and even take away the woman’s children. These kinds of rulings happen routinely, despite the fact that they are contrary to British law.

Does Michelle Obama see herself in this Quran verse? “Men are the managers of the affairs of women for that God has preferred in bounty one of them over another, and for that they have expended of their property. Righteous women are therefore obedient, guarding the secret for God’s guarding. And those you fear may be rebellious admonish; banish them to their couches, and beat them” (4:34).

Michelle Obama also said: “Maybe you see the news and see people talking about your religion, and wonder if anyone will ever see beyond your headscarf.”

Her husband said the same thing in his notorious speech in Cairo in 2009: that the U.S. would protect the right of women to wear hijab. But who is infringing on that right? No one. And who is not seeing beyond the headscarf? Michelle Obama meant “Islamophobes,” but the real people these girls have to fear regarding their headscarves are the Muslim men who will kill them if they don’t wear it.

Aqsa Parvez was murdered by her father and her brother for not wearing the headscarf. Innumerable other Muslim women have been similarly victimized. Who speaks for them? Who stands for their rights? Not Michelle Obama.

Tell us, Mrs. Obama, about your oppression and disadvantage, from your position emanating from the highest and most powerful office in the free-est country in the world.

Tell us how wronged you were in between your multiple daily wardrobe changes of the most expensive designer clothes in the world. Tell us how awful it was for you to get accepted and attend Princeton University (along with your brother) in your youth and make your own choices to live your life any way you wanted.

Vicious hypocrite.

    And she surprised no one by doing so.

      I agree Angemon, not surprising at all. The U.K. and other Western countries will continue to witness increasing violence and freedom disappearing while our leaders shift Muslims into the victim’s seat and submit to their demands. Angemon knows the situation is going to rapidly become worse with the low birth rates of non- Muslims, high birth rates of Muslims, tons of converts to Islam and mass immigration from Islamic countries brings the Muslim population closer to being the majority. ANGEMON’S plan is to whine about what is happening on the internet while brutally attacking one of the few people willing to tell the full brutal truth about the problem and balking at the most virtuous solution, deportation.

        What crap. Angemon never whines. As for ‘brutally attacking’, you must be referring to Angemon **and** PJ pointing out to voegelinian the **many** flaws in his argument for total deportation of all muslims, now, none of which voegelinian has ever answered in any substantive way.

        If you’re not voeg’s alter ego, perhaps **you** can furnish us with the answers as to how *American* muslims can be deported under the Constitution and laws of America, and where you intend deporting them **to**.

          Angemon just said he wants to deport the ones that break the law. How is he going to do that under the constitution and American laws? The West could pull off deportation if it really wanted. I never said it would be easy. Obviously laws would have to be changed.

          “How is he going to do that under the constitution and American laws?”

          Current laws allow foreign criminals to be deported. Go back to the playground, kid – if you don’t know that much then you’re way out of your league here.

          “The West could pull off deportation if it really wanted.”

          Answer me this, Godless: where would you deport an American muslim convert who could trace his lineage back to pre-Columbian times?

          Also, like I said above, do bring forth evidence of the so called “brutal attacks” you claim I did.

          We would not have to change any laws. Consider that it’s illegal for a SWAT team to bust down doors without a warrant, commandeer apartments, throw people out on the street, prevent people from walking and driving in public places, etc. — when nothing is happening. But when there are unidentified snipers on a rooftop (or on several rooftops) of a busy city square, already randomly killing people on the streets and through windows of adjacent buildings, and the police don’t know how many snipers there are, or where they all are, or who their accomplices are — then the behavior of the police, SWAT and FBI will exactly resemble illegal activities, but they will be perfectly within the law, because exigent circumstances of people getting randomly killed in an uncontrolled situation that could spiral worse legitimizes such seemingly illegal behavior — for which no new laws need to be written.

          Not only is our ongoing protracted train wreck coming down the pike of an Islam problem analogous to my sniper scenario above — our situation is far, far, far, worse.

          The Counter Jihad Softies who continue to balk at Total Deportation evidently don’t think the problem is bad enough to warrant it — i.e., they have a milder problem of Islam in their minds (though their rhetoric otherwise often shows that they are being incoherently self-contradictory overall).

          There’s no law allowing deportation of anyone based on any ideology they claim to profess. The alternative to changing laws would be creating new ones meant to pass judgment on people based on what they might do, like they did in Communist USSR.

          “The Counter Jihad Softies who continue to balk at Total Deportation evidently don’t think the problem is bad enough to warrant it”

          This is demonstrably false. You’ve been told over and over why you’re wrong. Where would you deport a Native American convert to islam who could trace ALL of his lineage back to pre-Columbian era? You never answered that, even though it’s a scenario your “idea” would encounter. What you propose involves both U.S. law and international law, and it’s quite obvious that you still chose to ignore it. As I said in the past, you’re not really interested in discussing the practical application of your “idea” and any hurdles it might encounter, you’re just interested in pretending to have a solution so you can be the center of attentions.

        You know, for someone who acts like he has some sort of divine power who enables him to know what others know or what their alleged plan is, you sure have an ironic username.

        “is to whine about what is happening on the internet while brutally attacking one of the few people willing to tell the full brutal truth about the problem and balking at the most virtuous solution, deportation.”

        Look, you’re completely wrong on all accounts. I’ve already stated my stance on immigration and deportation – stop all muslim immigration to Western countries, whatever foreign muslims are already in Western countries should be deported whenever they’re caught breaking the law, or attempting to. I don’t expect you to apologize – because it’s pretty clear you’re out to denigrate me – but i do expect you to realize most regulars here know about my stance and your lies won’t get you any traction here.

        As for the rest of your post – which I can only assume to be a representation of the mess going on in your mind – ,show me where am I “brutally attacking” whoever it is you’re referring to. Unlike you, I don’t read minds.

        I appreciate the comment from “Godless” — apparently my only ally speaking up here in this lonely Counter-Jihad community of asymptotics and/or innocent bystanders who opt for a passive “don’t want to get involved” neutrality (along with a smattering of genocidal conspiracy theorists who pop up now and then….).

        (There was a JW regular from many moons ago who went by the moniker “Nobody” for a while — an ironically apt moniker, come to think of it — who was also solidly on the same page with me, but he got rather fed up with the increasingly squishy nougat oozing out from between the lines of so many otherwise robustly anti-Islam commenters here, and he has found a more hospitable home at Debbie Schlussel’s blog.)

          Aha! Now I fully understand what ‘voeg’ meant when he wrote this comment a few days ago on another thread:

          “Hey ‘Godless’, have you fallen asleep or something?”

          This thread:

          http://www.jihadwatch.org/2015/06/muslim-clerics-those-who-insult-muhammad-have-no-right-to-live#comments

          (And I see that Angemon caught my error; which I just read. Thank you for the correction!)

          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

          Obviously ‘voeg’ wasn’t directing this at me, but he was chiding his sole supporter “Godless” for not being there, when he needed him.

          Notice, on that other thread, how disappointed ‘voeg’ seems that “Godless” wasn’t helping him — as he should, and asked, “are you asleep or something?”

          Pure arrogance from ‘voeg’ ..again! Wow I guess “Godless” is suppose to be at his beckon call! Shame on you “Godless” for not being there when ‘voeg’ so desperately needed you / sarc.

          That seems to be the case. Voeg is so obsessed with his standing in JW that he has to recruit brownshirts off-site. What does he use those brownshirts (well, brownshirt) for? Not for combating islamic apologists and trolls, but to praise him and go after those he doesn’t like. And, of course, Godless doesn’t strike me as being particularly intelligent – parrots never are – or capable of striking together a complex argument.

          I like the way voeg handled situation – he could have pretended he had no clue on who Godless was and feing genuine surprise (which would be the intelligent thing to do), but he felt the overpowering need to nudge us as to say “he’s on my team. Na-na-na na-na”.

          Must be hard to run a propaganda machine with one person alone – the Nazis and Communists had whole ministries dedicated to it.

    “# BringBackOurGirls”
    She appears to have also discarded these girls after the photo opportunity.
    Yet for those families it continues in Nigeria.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chibok_schoolgirls_kidnapping
    A Human Rights Watch report released on 27th October claims,

    “ Their statements suggest that the Nigerian government has failed to adequately protect women and girls from a myriad of abuses, provide them with effective support and mental health and medical care after captivity, ensure access to safe schools, or investigate and prosecute those responsible for the abuses.[79] ”
    The report also claims, “The relative ease with which Boko Haram carried out the Chibok abductions seems to have emboldened it to step up abductions elsewhere.”[79]

    As of 5 January 2015, daily rallies by Bring Back Our Girls demonstrators at the Unity Fountain in Abuja were continuing, despite police efforts to shut them down.[80][81][82][83]

    On April 13, 2015 hundreds of protesters wearing red tape across their lips walked silently through the capital Abuja marking a year since Boko Haram kidnapped the girls.[84]

    On June 12, 2015, just two weeks after the new Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari was sworn in, he and his wife Aisha Muhammadu Buhari, and the Vice President’s wife Mrs. Dolapo Osinbajo met with some mothers of the abducted Chibok girls, a meeting Mrs. Buhari had wanted to hold for a long time.

    Michelle Obama is simply engaging in the Mirror Image Fallacy, projecting the African-American experience onto Muslim women. This is also common among Jews, who project the Jewish experience onto Muslims, and think that there will be peace and harmony if only discrimination is ended. Read Jeff Barak, a columnist and editor of the Jerusalem Post to get a good idea of that. Then there’s the Muslim version of the Fallacy, where Muslims think that infidels want to conquer them, subjugate them, rob them, rape them and kill them, which is of course, a projection of their own intentions onto others.
    The antidote to the Mirror Image Fallacy is to do your homework and actually learn something about other cultures and ideologies, but, that’s such a hassle.

      The antidote to the Mirror Image Fallacy is to do your homework and actually learn something about other cultures and ideologies, but, that’s such a hassle.

      The threshold for taking up personal effort in self-education and public discourse has gotten progressively lower, where the average person is willing to do on his own less and less all the time, it’s too much of a hassle. Some of this is due to the explosion in availability of personal diversions of watching TV, playing computer games, etc.; some of it is due to the steep decline and growing non-inquisitive conformity taught in school, along with a big dose of opinion inculcation.

      This results in greater dependence on media to determine what’s going on. But the news entertainers are of the same culture as the consumer, so they have no inclination to self-educate with fact-checking skepticism. In fact, the only skepticism left in our media now is skepticism that our emerging reality is really real.

        This implies that the main, or only, problem with PC MC is a negative problem — a lack of doing something (viz., self-education). However, the other half of this is critically significant — the positive half. There is positive content to the PC MC worldview, which buoys up the typical Westerner whose heart & mind has been formed (or deformed) by it, whereby he actually thinks and feels that he is on the side of the angels, that he is keeping the flame of the civil rights movement alive, etc. For such a person, when they encounter criticism of Islam, they have internalized a “Google Translator” which translates all Counter-Jihad information & rhetoric into potential “bigotry”, “racism” and “hate” — and this tends to only enhance and strengthen their self-righteous sense of being on the side of the angels.

        (It then gets really complex and torturous when this process gets psychologically mired in a Counter-Jihad person himself, who has unwittingly brought along some of the psychological & cultural baggage of PC MC into the Big Tent of the Counter-Jihad but, in his hip-deep Denial joined at the hip to his growing appreciation & horror at what Muslims intend for us, takes out his inner turmoil caused by this growing contradiction on those like me who call attention to the logic of his robust rhetoric which should lead him out of his clown luggage he has brought into the Big Tent.)

      Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, wench*; this according to some white Jew whose ethnicity surely negates the truthfulness of the claim *sarcasm*.

      It appears he was in Indonesia, at least. Or does it have more to do with his dreamy father? Or could it be his Karachi halin’ roommate Sohale Siddiqi ? Or his bae who sees herself in celebrating Britain’s destruction from within?

      Her husband is a Proud Muslim(TM)

      I tellya he is *not* a Moslem. He’s a secular progressive atheist posing as a fake Christian who attended Sharia school during his youth in his homeland Indonesia, which explains his foreign policy proclivities.

      Barack doesn’t have the heart and soul to believe in a God, but he surely believes in himself, which in the fever swamp of his mind is sort of a god.

    I think Michelle Obama should read Rifqa Barry’s book on her struggling i.e. living in hiding because she converts to Christianity in the USA and her family and members from the mosque her family attends in Ohio have one thing in mind to kill her if they find her. Killing is the punishment for leaving Islam because it punishable under Islam when you are an apostate.

    Michelle Obama lacks knowledge or she is playing a game that is senseless.

    Does Michelle Obama Know all the Ways Islam Degrades Women?
    1. Islam allows polygamy making women second class. Women must suffer sharing their husband.
    2. Men may divorce their wife whenever they wish, by pronouncing talaq thrice. Women must ask a Sharia court for a divorce. They may refuse it for any reason.
    3. Women inherit half as much as men.
    4. Husbands are allowed to beat their wives.
    5. Islam recommends the practice of Female Genital Mutilation.
    6. Islam tells women their bodies are shameful and must be covered completely.
    7. Islam permits the rape of non-Muslim women.
    8. Islam encourages to take women as slaves as war booty.
    9. Islam encourages MEN to have sex outside marriage with slave girls. The wife must accept that according to Quran it is ‘halal’ (rightful) for her husband to have sex with his female slave.
    10. Only a Muslim and a male can be a judge. A non Muslim and a Muslim woman cannot be a judge. This means women’s viewpoint is not represented in law.
    11. The testimony of a Muslim woman in court is only half of that of a Muslim man.
    12. The blood money for a male is twice that of a female. That is plain discrimination.
    13. Stoning to death for adultery is a very harsh punishment. Mostly the women are victim of this. On many occasions women are tortured to make confessions of adultery so that they could be stoned to death.
    14. Only 4 male witnesses or 8 women may prove rape. No other proof is valid in court. So in most cases the rapists cannot be convicted and they are never punished. On the other hand if a woman fails to prove that she has been raped then she could be convicted of adultery and stoned to death.
    15. Women do not have equal custody rights over her children on the event of divorce.
    16. There is no provision of alimony for divorced women.
    17. Muta marriage for Shia Muslims and Misgyar marriage for Sunni Muslims are in reality not any proper marriage, but kinds of legalized prostitution.
    18. Islam allows the practice of thighing or mufa’khathat with young children. It means placing the male organ between the thighs of the child.
    19. The paradise described in Islam is a place of lust and drinking.
    20. Islam promises paradise for the terrorists who blow themselves up. It says that 72 virgin houris would wait of those who would die for the sake of Allah. This is nothing but sex with slaves.
    21. Sharia law demands FGM for all girls according to a hadith where Mohammed approved it.

    • Alarmed Pig Farmer says

      Jun 22, 2015 at 2:26 pm

      That’s an exhaustive list, Mort. But you forgot one: men are allowed to have temporary marriages to enjoy the fruits of a woman without obligations. No post-coital divorce proceedings are required. The marriage can last a few hours or a few days, the latter more common in the resort paradise of Abu Dhabi, which is the Vegas of Dar al-Islam. They even host a PGA event there, so it’s a swinging place.

      Allah did this to allow men to have carnal fun while at the same time preserving the sanctity of marriage. That way Islam fortifies the nuclear family to make a strong foundation for raising Moslem children.

    • David says

      Jun 22, 2015 at 2:27 pm

    Well, i guess the tide of Islam is not too deep at Michelle Obama, location.
    Perhap to get the full experience of Islam she could pilgrimage to Mecca, get de-clitorised, and live deep in Islamic land.
    She is also creating a mental pathway between the black problem in America, and the tide of Islam, which is not good for anyone, black, white, red, yellow, green or blue.
    Such naivety is treacherous on the path of evolving humanity.
    She may believe that inner city muslim want Islam.
    It’s not like they have a choice, and not what is said by some muslim women who dare to take opportunity to express their experiences in Islam.
    Black is not the same thing to compare. People who are prejudice against colour are basically thickos.
    People who are prejudiced against Islam have taken a degree of time to suss what Islam is about, in general.

    • ECAW says

      Jun 22, 2015 at 4:18 am

      “People who are prejudiced against Islam have taken a degree of time to suss what Islam is about, in general.”

      Therefore they are not prejudiced but postjudiced

      The word postjudice exists and I think we should encourage its use for countering Islamapologists’ name-calling.

    • Georg says

      Jun 22, 2015 at 4:17 pm

      That’s not a prejudice toward Islam, it’s a judgment of it.

      • citycat says

        Jun 23, 2015 at 7:37 pm

        Good technical point.
        It is the view of people who consider those who have true knowledge of Islam to be prejudice, that i’m refering to. In which case i suppose then that the prejudice kids in the minds of the ignorant that judge the knowledgeable one, type of thing.
        Getting a bit technical round here. Anyway, there you go.

      • citycat says

        Jun 23, 2015 at 7:58 pm

        That’s not quite right either. That which is called prejudice is usually if not all the time, as you say, is knowledgeable.
        Who would make such a fuss out of simple prejudice, anyway. There’s obviously a reason behind it.
        People who don’t know the true intention of Islam can get angry when confronted with the harsh truth, for some reason, i’ve noticed.
        Something like that, Islam is so vague and has a mushy disguise, which can confuse some people.

    The American tax dollars – money that came out of my pocket – sent her to the UK to make that stupid statement.

    Who was that statement for, Michelle? I don’t think it had anything to do with America or the American people. In fact, I don’t think it had to do with anything that my tax dollar should have funded.

    • Alarmed Pig Farmer says

      Jun 22, 2015 at 3:01 pm

      Think back to last summer in the Holy Land. In that one the U.S. taxpayer footed the bill for the both sides of the “war” in which Hamas launched missiles into Israel, Israel shot the missiles down with the Iron Dome, and during the commotion mass murders snuck through tunnels made of concrete paid for with foreign aid money to go ahead and kill a few Jews before sneaking back into the Gaza.

      And the news entertainers struggled with the vagaries of the Jewish occupation of Palestine and what that meant for the future. The talking haids had fun pontificating on such a weighty matter, and we funded the whole circus they were barking.

      Oh, and at the same time we were importing Moslem “refugees” to be able to go onto the welfare to fortify the multicultural fabric of the nation and oh by the way the Democratic Party’s voting bloc.

    “There have been 170,000 victims of female genital mutilation, a practice justified under Islamic law, in Britain, and yet there were no prosecutions of any of the perpetrators until this year.”

    And the one prosecution there has been was bound to fail, as it did, because the doctor was merely patching up previous work damaged by child birth.

    It pains me to see Michael Obama going out of “his” way to help stupid muslim women.
    Yes, Michael, not Michelle.
    Obama has even slipped up twice during his term and called her Michael when addressing an audience.

    Jun 22, 2015 at 12:42 pm

    In so many ways, your story is my story.

    Oh my, these people can always sink even lower. But our shovel-faced First Lady is right on this. When she “struggled” her way up there were federal laws that mandated racist racial [no sic] discrimination throughout the country, and there still is. The race discrimination is everywhere, and affects lives in big ways in such ways as gaining admittance to school, getting a job, or funding a business. It’s called Affirmative Action.

    So she’s right. The young Moslimas in the sorry ass picture above, each of their smiling faces dripping with self-pity mixed with oleaginous self-aggrandizement, will indeed face the same as did Michelle: racist preference with doors opening for them at every turn.

    The capacity for hypocrisy and self-delusion is limitless, and Michelle, along with her egregious husband, knows no limits.

    … perhaps her marriage to obama was arranged (perhaps obama is secretly her cousin)
    … perhaps she has had – yet to be made public – first hand experienced FGM.
    … perhaps she had been slapped around a bit for displeasing her husband.
    … perhaps she was threatened with violence by family member(s) if she brings dishonour to her family.

    … so many other similarities.

    • Robert_K says

      Jun 22, 2015 at 5:13 pm

      Perhaps Michelle Obama is really Michael Obama, a transgender (transvestite). Of interest are some youtube videos :
      1) “Joan Rivers: Obama is gay, Michelle is a tranny ”
      2) “IRREFUTABLE PROOF that Michelle Obama IS A MAN 24 7 ” .
      Barack Obama even calls Michelle Obama “Micheal” in a typical Obama Freudian slip when he addresses the military heads in a speech:
      3) See “Obama Refers to His Wife as “Michael” in youtube.

      So perhaps “Michelle” has been mutilated her/himself.

          Wow. Hermaphrodite? That’s a poser.

          Well of course we know they’d have to be killed, horribly; but the question is, what VERSION of muslim horribleness would work? Hmmm…maybe stoning then ’til they’re nearly dead-then quickly removing them to the gallows, or the block?

          Sorta the islamic version of hanging, drawing and quartering. Tho’ that’d doubtless be too modern-and then, it’s western in origin.

    ALL: Please read the lyrics to the song the girls were singing as Michelle walked out. It is as or more outrageous than what is being discussed, and must be acknowledged to fully understand the context and degree of seditiousness which occurred.

    The higher you build your barriers the taller I become
    The farther you take my rights away the faster I will run
    You can deny me, you can decide to turn your face away
    No matter ’cause there’s

    Something inside so strong
    I know that I can make it
    Though you’re doing me wrong so wrong
    You thought that my pride was gone
    Oh, no, something inside so stro.o.ong
    there’s something inside so strong

    The more you refuse to hear my voice the louder I will sing
    You hide behind walls of Jericho, your lies will come tumbling
    Deny my place in time, you squander wealth that’s mine
    My light will shine so brightly, it will blind you ’cause there’s

    Something inside so strong
    I know that I can make it
    But you’re doing me wrong so wrong
    You thought that my pride was gone
    Oh, no, something inside so strong
    theres something inside so strong

    (chorus with a bit more umph)
    Something inside so strong
    And I know that I can make it
    But you’re doing me wrong so wrong
    You thought that my pride was gone
    Oh, no, something inside so strong
    theres something inside so strong

    Brothers and sisters
    When they insist we’re just good not enough
    When we know better
    Just look ’em in the eyes and say

    I’m gonna do it anyway
    I’m gonna do it anyway
    I’m gonna do it anyway
    I’m gonna do it anyway

    Because there’s something inside so strong
    And I know that I can make it
    But you’re doing me so wrong
    Oh, no, something inside so strong
    there’s something inside so strong

    Michelle Obama loves playing the victim. No matter how many opportunities she gets. America will never be normal for her.
    Perhaps after her husbands term of office expires she should consider moving to an African country. Then maybe she will find peace at last and the rest of us can stop having to listen to her complaining.

    There are hundreds of nationality’s in London, but she went to an 99% female Muslim school, there are so many other schools in London that have a mix of students that would represent the population of London better, but she goes to this one which she said “she knew and wanted to see”. What bullshit there is no way she knows the part of London where this school is.

    Poor USA, over a year left with Michael and Barry in the white house. It is laughable for her to talk about oppression at school where 99% of the students and teachers are wearing veils, and then not talk real truth, so fuck her and fuck the worst president the US has every had, Barry Obama.
