“The federal judge in Detroit ruled in the historic case on Tuesday, ruling the law that prevents female genital mutilation (FGM) is unconstitutional.” So apparently it cannot be outlawed at all.

Michigan: Defense in female genital mutilation case asks judge to dismiss charges, claims law is unconstitutional
The defense is also claiming that the female genital mutilation procedure was no crime, because it is a religious ritual. They’re trying to make this case into a showdown over the First Amendment: does the freedom of religion grant one the permission to commit other crimes that are allowed by one’s religion? We shall see. […]
Detroit: Muslim doctor in FGM case says she committed no crime, just performed a religious ritual
Establishment media treatments of female genital mutilation routinely insist that it has nothing to do with Islam, but actually FGM is mandated in Islamic law: “Circumcision is obligatory (for every male and female) (by cutting off the piece of skin on the glans of the penis of the male, but circumcision of the female is […]
Michigan: Lawyers for Muslim doctors charged with performing FGM to use religious freedom as defense
Defense lawyers have said they will argue a freedom of religion defense – setting the stage for an explosive test of Americans’ religious rights that experts say could ultimately be settled by the Supreme Court. As Robert Spencer explained here, Fakhruddin Attar’s lawyer Mary Chartier “apparently she intends to argue that female genital mutilation (contrary […]
Attorney: Michigan mosque paid doctor to perform genital cuttings on girls
The mosque denies this claim. But there is no reason for Cynthia Nunez to lie about it, and no reason why it could not be so, because FGM is Islamic. “Circumcision is obligatory (for every male and female) (by cutting off the piece of skin on the glans of the penis of the male, but […]
Feds say up to 100 girls may have had their genitals cut in Michigan
This shouldn’t surprise anyone, because FGM is Islamic. “Circumcision is obligatory (for every male and female) (by cutting off the piece of skin on the glans of the penis of the male, but circumcision of the female is by cutting out the bazr ‘clitoris’ [this is called khufaadh ‘female circumcision’]).” — ‘Umdat al-Salik e4.3, translated […]
Michigan: Examinations reveal that Muslim doctor’s claim she didn’t perform female genital mutilation is false
“The girls’ parents have not been charged.” Why not? Obviously they wanted this done to their girls. Jumana Nagarwala didn’t steal into their homes in the dark of night and perform this barbaric procedure of her own accord. “Report: Girl’s genital mutilation injury worse than doctor claims,” by Tresa Baldas, Detroit Free Press, April 26, […]
Michigan: Lawyer says doctors accused of FGM are “Muslims and they’re being under attack because of it”
Dr. Attar’s attorney Mary Chartier said: “I do believe that the government does not fully understand the religious practices of Dr. Attar and Dr. Attar’s religion, and I think that’s why we are in this courthouse today, and what we’ll be fighting over for the next few months.” Indeed: the government is likely clueless as […]
Michigan: Muslim doctor accused of mutilating genitals of young girls defends procedure as religious practice
This is inconvenient for the establishment media narrative that female genital mutilation is a cultural practice that has nothing to do with Islam.

Detroit: Muslim physician charged with practicing female genital mutilation
“The procedure is believed to initiate girls into adulthood and ensure their marriageability, according to Human Rights Watch, a New York nonprofit human rights organization.” Human Rights Watch, unsurprisingly, is wrong. It’s actually done to reduce female sexual pleasure so that women are more easily controllable. This repulsive practice is justified in Islamic texts. “Circumcision […]
