Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Iran’s Supremo: “Gender equality” is a “Zionist plot”

Mar 22, 2017 10:36 am By Robert Spencer

“Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because Allah has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them.” — Qur’an 4:34

As far as someone such as Khamenei is concerned, who but a Zionist could object to the idea that men are superior to women and that women from whom men fear disobedience should be beaten?

“Iran’s Supreme Leader: ‘Gender Equality’ Is A ‘Zionist Plot,’” by Christian Datoc, Daily Caller, March 20, 2017:

In a statement made on Sunday, Iran’s National Women’s and Mother’s Day, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei explained the dangers associated with “gender equality.”

According to Khamenei, the idea of elevating women outside of the household is part of a “zionist plot” aimed at undermining Islamic society.

“These aberrant and neglectful people humiliate the role of a housewife while a housewife is actually in charge of raising and educating the most valuable product, which is a human being,” Khamenei explained. “Unfortunately, sometimes inside the country and in some Islamic environments, tasks and expectations are ascribed to women that in fact collapse and humiliate their roles.”

“Despite sharing similar goals like rising to spiritual positions, leadership and the ability to guide human beings, men and women are different when it comes to responsibilities in management of life,” he added….

      He combined HATRED OF WOMEN with the HATRED OF JEWS!

      Is no one paying attention to these EVIL STATEMENTS?

      What about the HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION AT THE UN?

        The **WHAT** rights commission? Surely, you are referring to Muslim Rights Commission.

      Islam has no respect for women and total disrespect for non-Muslims (kaffirs).

    I can’t imagine the tears that will be shed by the women, in the recent Women’s Day march, when they read they are part of a great Zionist conspiracy to undermine Islam. Red cat-ear beanies burning and the wailing of sorrow.

    And the women of the IDF must now get slightly teary when forced to shoot an Iran-directed terrorist and wishing it was the ayatollah; a tear of disappointment.

      Iranian women pray that Jewish women who are feminists will HELP TO LIBERATE THEM, but those Jewish feminists are busy telling the world that Islam MAY NOT BE DISCUSSED.

      Feminists have ABANDONED the suffering female victims of Islam.

    Ayatollah Khomeini with this “mullah regime” has with its Islamic agenda has no place for the Western concept of equality between males and females. If anything this tyrannical Islamic regime of Iran with it’s demonic misogyny is very cruel ,brutal and oppressive against both girls and women. This heinous oppression of the females trapped and forced to exist in Iran. This hideous and hideous oppression is a reminder that the Bible teaches “All the day of the oppressed are wretched” Proverbs 15:15. [N.I.V.] as reveled recently on this internet site this Islamic tyranny is so extremely misogynistic that Muslim males of Iran even are so spite-full and vicious that they maliciously throw acid in the faces of women. Such Islamic malice- filled hate for girls and women in Iran even extents the murderous madness. As shown in this following example of Iran’s callus and heartless murdering wickedness.
    That heinously cruel and murderous Islamic tyranny of Iran is very brutal and vicious to the Iranian people. Especially regarding females. Both girls and women. For example a teenage girl in Iran was talking to her boyfriend on the phone and then the Islamic state “police” walked over to her and shot her dead. They did that wicked and malicious thing to her because she was talking to her boyfriend and they also didn’t like her clothing. [1] That was a clear cut case of murder and vicious Islamic madness by Iran’s Islamic state “ police”, who call themselves the “Revolutionary Guards”, they got away with their hideous and malice –filled evil because the mullahs as well as other villains in power in that tyrannical Islamic regime

    “These aberrant and neglectful people humiliate the role of a housewife while a housewife is actually in charge of raising and educating the most valuable product, which is a human being,” Khamenei explained.

    What if a woman wants to do something else? Does she has any saying or is she supposed to be forced into being a housewife?

    Gender Equality came from 1 Jew, Y’shua Ha Mashiach.(G-d’s Right Hand) It didnt come from any other source. Like secular that takes the gift of childbirth away from females & is trying to give it to men. lol.

    Of course, the Israelis are responsible for all the evils on this world, including gender equality. Spoken like a true Mullah. I wonder what Linda S says about Muslim feminism!, feminist beware of Muslims!

    — And to all those woman that continue to spew out their BS saying that this IS a beautiful so-called religion- I say how can U come up with such BS when woman are NOT allowed in their mosque but put in another area listening to the imam’s sermon via speakers in their dingy spaces, while men are in a their area filled with wealth in beauty are embraced wholeheartedly. So I ask where’s the so-called beauty in this religion- where’s the beauty for all Gods people? Where? People better wake up! Be careful what U wish for! —
