ironmonk Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 A few hundred to a few thousand people that perform an operation on themselves (some want it, some don't) that has been going on for thousands of years... is worth going to war over, but saddam who killed his own people, paid suicide bombers families thousands of dollars to kill americans and jewish people is not?! WAR ON ALL WHO PERFOM FGM! TIC, ironmonk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Something is definitely wrong when people say a dictator responsible for the death of many should be ignored but that a certain surgical practice should not be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 I think you may have it wrong, guys...FGM is not performed on women voluntarily, at least from what I have seen on TV by its victims and those who escaped the barbaric practice. Is anyone advocating a military declaration of war over this? Such treatment of humans should definitely be condemned, and perhaps even have sanctions against such nations that treat their little girls and women thusly.

Such treatment of humans should definitely be condemned, and perhaps even have sanctions against such nations that treat their little girls and women thusly. I've seen shows on it that the people have elected it... mothers of the girls, that had it done, choose to have their daughters done to. Sanctions against the countries not only hurt the bad people, also the innocent are hurt by it, so instead of having a few victims, the entire country is the victim... they are the poorest nations on earth... some are just tribes in africa. No one is defending it... the bottom line is there is nothing that we can do.
