If you watch one thing this week, watch this! Reza Aslan destroys the 2 dimensional ignoramuses at CNN. Rough summary: CNN host: FGM is a Muslim problem Reza: Err FGM is an African problem. Eritrea has 90% FGM rates and is a Christian country CNN host: Okay but Muslim countries oppress women Reza: Err the Muslim majority countries expand across three continents and are diverse. Saudi Arabia is the most extreme Muslim country, but is our ally so we dont say anything, whereas the situation in Indonesia, Bangladesh, India, Turkey is completely different. You cant lump them all together. Did you know there have been 7 female heads of states in Muslim countries. How many have we had here? Oh thats right. None.
