Mail-Order Muslim Brides

Is it just me, or is the subtle tone of the lying, racist, Muslim-hating, enemy-creating (literally), agenda-pushing Zionist War Daily just a tad disparaging?

"Hamas ventures into arranging marriages" by Diaa Hadid, Associated Press | June 21, 2009

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - At 29, Tahani is considered a spinster by the standards of deeply conservative Gaza. So in her search for a husband, she turned for help to the best in the marriage business: the Islamic militant group Hamas.

“I gaze at all the men on the street and think, ‘Oh God, isn’t there just one for me?’ ’’ said the young woman with dark skin and honey-colored eyes, set off by a maroon headscarf.

Well, I'm not going to be the one to say the people who are the soul of the earth are beautiful -- whoops!

Her application is among 287 from single women in the files of the Tayseer Association for Marriage and Development in Gaza. Photographs stapled to the files show Muslim women in headscarves, some wearing makeup, some smiling, others looking startled. They all want a husband, and the Hamas loyalists running the association are intent on finding a man for each.

Matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a.... hey, we have Christian e-harmony and Jewish singles parties, so why not?

Despite its militant reputation elsewhere, Hamas is known here for its cradle-to-grave welfare programs for the poor.

Yeah, just WHERE would we get that BAD IMPRESSION, 'eh, NEWSPAPER?!!!

The CHUTZPAH is REALLY SOMETHING!!!!

It is a cornerstone of its political support in Gaza, where poverty is deepening as Israel and Egypt maintain an almost two-year blockade of the Hamas-run territory. Now, the group is branching out into matters of the heart.

Yeah, when PEOPLE CARE FOR YOU you TEND TO LIKE 'EM!!

When they DROP BOMBS and WMD on you, well.....

And the heart?

“This is our vision of humanitarian work,’’ said Wael Zard, director of the Tayseer association. “This makes people close to Hamas and makes Hamas close to the people.’’

It sure is! You hear bells?

The matchmaking service is particularly important for women since staying single is a cruel fate for them in Gaza. They are often treated as unpaid maids by their extended families, says Gaza sociologist Naser Mahdi. Increasing economic hardship has made the marriage market even harsher.

You know, we really have no standing to criticize: Happy Mother's Day

Hamas does more for them with less than what we get. Why is that true in so many places, America?

The dwindling number of middle-class men with steady incomes can have their pick of the prettiest women, leaving others to work hard to find a suitable husband. Meanwhile, poor families are reluctant to marry off working daughters, hoping to keep their salaries.

Who can work under the siege? Of course, ISRAEL'S MURDER has nothing to do with the dwindling number of men, either.

Most women apply in secret because it’s taboo for women in Gaza to seek husbands outside the traditional route. Most girls are married in matches set up by their mothers. Dating is nearly nonexistent and love marriages are a novelty....

Translation: PALESTINIANS are PRIMITIVE and DON'T LOVE!!! What RACIST, Zionist diarrhea -- which is what the suffering children of Palestine endure!!!!!

The young woman said she became more determined to find a husband after Israel’s three-week war on Hamas, which ended in January. Israel’s assault killed hundreds of civilians, and Gaza’s residents hunkered down in homes and shelters during the shelling, not knowing where bombs would fall next.

Yes, because THEY KNOW the VALUE of LIFE like WE COULDN'T POSSIBLY IMAGINE and don't want to WAIT until it is TOO LATE!!!!

“My brothers held their wives when they were scared. I felt lonely,’’ said Tahani, a university graduate in social work.

You are NOT ALONE in that feeling in this world; however, are we ALL not TRULY ALONE?

Muslim tradition says Khadija, the Prophet Muhammad’s first wife, proposed to Muhammad - and was years his senior. It’s a powerful message to women: Islam’s first lady bucked conservative Arab tradition more than 1,400 years ago and they can defy Gaza tradition now....

The destroy-the-family, agenda-pushing never stops -- even when the jewspaper is trying to be nice.

Yeah, those backwards Arabs! They ALMOST DESERVE those LIBERATING-from-LIFE Israeli bombs, huh?

But in a nod to Gaza’s grinding poverty triumphing over its conservative culture, there is a special file for women with jobs. Bringing home a salary in Gaza can trump any other category, matchmakers say.

GOOD THING Jewish or AmeriKan girls and boys never "gold-dig," huh, world?

Yeah, I do get tired of the slanted, hateful, agenda-pushing bias of the Zionist War Daily.

In the women’s application, they describe their ideal man. Most ask for a devout Muslim with a job and an apartment, a top find in crowded Gaza.

That's funny, because as an old, balding, unemployed, live-at-home American I'm being flooded with offers.

Women also must describe their appearance and answer a killer question: “Do you consider yourself pretty according to Gaza standards?’’

WHAT kind of QUESTION is THAT???

Yes, yes, and AGAIN, yes, YOU are ALL BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!

The ideal of beauty in Gaza means tall and fair-skinned with blue or green eyes and light-colored hair - and that’s what men usually ask for. But most Gaza women have dark hair and bronze skin....

Oh, I SEE! The GAZAN MEN want the "white woman" -- and all they can get are the "darkies," 'eh?

HOW DAMN OFFENSIVE to ME!!! How DAMN OFFENSIVE!!!!!!!!!!

And I'M NOT BUYING this LOAD of CRAP about PALESTINIANS or ANY OTHER MUSLIMS in my racist Zionist paper anymore!!!

They LOVE THEIR FAMILIES and KIDS JUST LIKE WE DO!!!!!!!

Otherwise, they WOULDN'T BE WAILING when WE KILL THEM!!!!!!

Yeah, you better get those Muslims girls to the "liberated" West quick!

WASHINGTON -- Many of their parents came to the United States to study engineering, medicine, and the sciences. But many in this generation are drawn to politics, journalism, and public service, researchers said. The aftermath of the Sept. 11 attacks and the Bush administration's counterterrorism policies, which many Muslims opposed, have motivated many of them in their 20s to pursue newly established public-policy internships and fellowships created in government and the private sector.

Sure they aren't "terrorists?"

I hate that damn day!

"We're realizing we don't have the voice we need in American politics," said Nadia Sheikh, 22, who graduated last month from Georgetown University and hopes to go to law school. She has not forgotten, she said, how FBI agents came to her home in Portland, Ore., in 2003 to question her family after her sister was seen with their Pakistan-born father photographing local landmarks for a school project.

Sufia Alnoor said she also wants a career that will allow her to live her religious values. Although her mother wanted her to be a doctor or lawyer, she wants to use her communications degree from George Mason University for environmental or international aid work. The 22-year-old from West Springfield, Va., said she is troubled by the messages young Muslim children are receiving.

"We were taught to take care of seniors, not to eat more meat than we needed, that those values were living Islamically," said Alnoor, who prefers hipster attire under the head covering and looser clothes she wears outside of the house or around unrelated men.

I think AMERICANS could USE SOME INSTRUCTION!

Muslim children are taught to be defensive, not to watch television, she said, to be braced for rejection from the culture.

They had to ruin it with that last one?


They mean OUR CULTURE, right?

Of course, SOME MATCHMAKING is DOWNRIGHT ROMANTIC!

He has never spoken to his bride. He has never even seen her across a crowded room. He will not lay eyes on her until today’s ceremony. The bride, Sarbjit Kaur, is 25 and lived at home with her family in the Philippines until Wednesday, when she arrived in Boston with two bags. She can say hello, and thank you, but knows little other English and smiled shyly yesterday answering questions while her arms and feet were laced with henna tatoos....

My first thought was that it must be a
Jewish Mafia operation.

I'm sure the MSM loved the tattoos, too:


"The most obvious lesson here to be learned is that - quite apart from any other reasons (of which there are many) - Jews seek to set about promoting multicultural societies where people are encouraged to dress and adorn themselves absurdly and buy into bodily self-mutilation in the form of piercings and hideous tattoos, so as to form a loud and chaotic backdrop behind which the Jew is less readily
."

That explains this leading the City/Region section of the Zionist War Daily!!!

And the MAIL-ORDER STUFF kind of makes these words hollow, huh?

"US expands human trafficking watch list" by Associated Press | June 17, 2009

WASHINGTON - The Obama administration yesterday expanded the US watch list of countries suspected of not doing enough to combat human trafficking, putting more than four dozen nations on notice that they might face sanctions unless their records improve....

Seventeen nations, up from 14 in 2008, are now subject to the trafficking sanctions, which can include a ban on non-humanitarian and trade-related aid and US opposition to loans and credits from the International Monetary Fund and World Bank.

I wonder if ISRAEL made the list:

"Women from the former Soviet Union and China are still being trafficked across the border with Egypt into Israel for forced prostitution by organized criminal groups."

Interesting how that didn't make my Zionist War Daily.

Very interesting indeed!
