Are you sending money to any of the 5 big aid organizations?
Chances are your help does more damage than good:
400,000 sponsored girls who are marketed by the big development organizations PLAN International, World Vision, Kindernothilfe and ChildFund do not receive protection from female genital mutilation. We have started a new campaign, at sponsoredgirl.com, to protect the girls from female genital mutilation. We invite our readers to come join us.
Update:
Will Naomi Wolf fight female genital mutilation?
2nd Update:
Female Genital Mutilation, Islam and Leftist Complicity /(FrontPage Magazine)
“Within the context of Islamic FGM, the barbarity is kept alive and legitimized by Islamic theology.”
As our readers will be familiar, Wolf went on a political pilgrimage to Morocco, Jordan, and Egypt and found a “thriving sexuality behind the veil.”
Obviously Wolf was not at all concerned about what state women’s vaginas were in within the sexual paradises that she visited and praised, seeing that the barbaric crime of female genital mutilation is perpetrated with high frequency in the areas she visited. Read more from JW
How much female genital mutilation is okay?
“Lets do it for them here so they don’t have to go back to the home country” doesn’t cut the mustard. We can’t allow this, period. Not a nick and not a cut. But here’s an article which tries to “balance pro’s and con’s.” What could be more important? Spero News
Will You Help Save a Girl From Mutilation? – by Jamie Glazov
These children are marketed in order to acquire money from trustful donors. The donors pay about 30 Euros per month – which means 360 Euros per year, in the belief that the organizations do all they can for providing a better life — including health for the sponsored children. PLAN International for instance, acquires about 72 million Euros every year, just by marketing the 240,000 concerned girls.
But asked about female genital mutilation on the sponsored girls, these organizations openly and publicly claim that demanding the safe protection of the girls would be against their approaches and against their policy.
So, by failing to demand, to stipulate and to control the protection of the sponsored girls from FGM, the organizations must be considered complicit in every single crime perpetrated against a little girl in this regard.
We are The Alliance for Protection of Girls from Female Genital Mutilation. We consider this simply scandalous and unacceptable. It is a crime against the girls and also a system of defrauding the donors.
That’s why we launched this campaign. It is suited to go the largest step forward in the direction of an end of FGM since the beginning of the fight against these practices. It could lead to true and immediate protection of a few million girls.

Forever deluded dogooders:
Greens’ women’s spokeswoman Judith Schwentner called for asylum for all prospective victims of genital mutilation, “a serious assault on the physical and sexual integrity of women and a serious violation of human rights.”
This is, of course, absurd and idiotic. We cannot solve all the problems of the third world and especially not those caused by Mohammedanism. Besides, it is cultural chauvinism to believe that we bear responsibility for their well being. We don’t.
Lawmakers plan new law and tough sentences for genital mutilation
The upper house of parliament has announced plans to impose strict punishment for genital mutilation of women.
Members of the Bundesrat wants tough jail sentences for individuals found guilty of female genital mutilation.
The upper house has decided that the practice should constitute a specific legal crime under German law.
Under current legislation, genital mutilation is merely classed as aggravated assault with a maximum prison sentence of six months. The Bundesrat now wants to raise that to a minimum of two years.
Thousands of women in Germany, most of them immigrants, have suffered genital mutilation, which is still an active ritual in some parts of Africa and, to a lesser extent, Asia and Latin America.
High numbers of victims meant that Germany had to take action said the justice minister for the state of Hesse, Joerg-Uwe Hahn.
The scales of justice would weigh up mutilation as a new crime
“The victims suffer all their lives from the physical and psychological effects of female genital mutilation,” Hahn said.
The women’s rights organization Terres des Femmes says some 20,000 cases of genital mutilation are known in Europe, with between 4,000 and 5,000 of these in Germany. Deutsche Welle has more>>

I for one think a proper form of humanitarian aid would be for refugees fled to America this qualifies as a preexisting condition that under Obamacare would be covered and granted optional plastic surgery to disguise scar tissue and possibly enhance love making process for victims of primitive rights of passage.
I am a veteran of the military and served in Jordan that believes if my country is trying to rehabilitate the middle east this is a viable option to open the doors of freedom. If these poor women are expected to recover from their psychological damage we should force LA plastic surgeons to do some humanitarian work instead of the equally disturbing liposuction and cosmetic work they do now. American excess can be put to positive use in this instance. As part of the global war on terror this elective surgery can be used to win over the hearts and minds of oppressed women whom are offered refuge.
I strongly believe this ideology is consistent with Obama and his views on politics. Instead of worrying about sending money overseas we could shift the focus on rehabilitation to those rescued from famously oppressed war torn zones. I believe it is the duty of my nation has become the melting pot of cultures around the world and celebrates diversity to allow these people to practice their religions and cultures in new and redeeming ways. For instance, when a Muslim in America says female circum is not part of their culture they should not be attacked and called uneducated but rather promoted as revolutionaries. And in my opinion, if the world medical association promotes decreased levels of mutilation as acceptable in order to be in favor of Allah while simultaneously minimizing the cutting to a simple one step operation it should be viewed as progress not objectified. In many parts of the world this reform would be great progress.
Eventually these people will be allowed back to their homelands and viewed as founders of the new testament that promises to be consistent with human rights structured on a global scale. This is the only way to eradicate sub culture taboo. It has to be done by people recognized as rooted from their own personal culture and accepted followers of regional belief structures. That is how trust works.
Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t Osama bin Laden studying in the US during 9/11 attacks?!?!? Bush allowed him refuge back to his native territory and Al Queda made a martyr out of him. Now we have a full fledge war on terror. If we can do the same thing by reformed religion we would have the double edge sword needed to have adequate civil war. I live in Richmond VA and know the importance of a good old civil war. The Muslim religion needs polarization to the point we can see political activity familiar in the states. I call it left, center, and right wingers. In order to have a proper center we need the extreme left and extreme right to battle out their beliefs in some type of psuedo civil war esque battle of beliefs so the center can adopt proper traits and merge as the dominant party. Put it this way if Iran ever expects to get nuclear power plants and be trusted not to make weapons this type of progress is much needed. Or else as soon as we prematurely leave Afghanistan we will send our troops to them until the job is done and polarity is achieved with some level of equality. This is my main concern.
Yep. He’s probably still there. Studying.
* Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t Osama bin Laden studying in the US during 9/11 attacks?!?!?
Studying controlled demolition?
OMG
The “islam menas peace” line is outdated. We all know now that the true meaning is “submission.” We even know now what taquiyyah is.
Make that “means.”

Female Circumcision is not islamic. The article is biased. Why are not practiced in all Islamic countries?
Oh my God. They are realy so crual, who cuts the organ of little angels. GOD WILL NEVER FORGIVE THEM.
Muslims are animals.Wait…i take that back,animals are smarter!
Female Circumcision is pure blasphemy because it proclaims that God does not know how to make women — if women should be without a clitoris, God would have made them so and they would be born without one. Since they are born with one, that must be his will. God wants women to enjoy sex, it’s men who do not — out of fear they might find a man who was a better lover. It’s the lack of masculinity that brings Muslim men to blaspheme against the will of God and deprive women of their God-given right to look forward to enjoying a night of love — if a man were wise, he would use their clitoris to bring them ecstacy, and they would love their husbandsall the more for that. But Muslim husbands do not want to be loved, romantic love as it exists in Western Culture is in the eyes of Muslims whoredom. The sex act in Islam follows the rules, the man uses the woman as he pleases, her purpose on this earth, other than bearing children, is to provide him with ecstasy. If the sex act for her is painful, well, he thinks that’s how it should be.
this is very bad . and muslims are very cruel . how can they do this.
