Feds estimate close to 100 girls suffered genital mutilation
http://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/lo...102594478/

Quote:As many as 100 girls may have had their genitalia mutilated during a 12-year conspiracy involving three Metro Detroit doctors, a federal prosecutor said Wednesday.

That’s a conservative figure, Assistant U.S. Attorney Sara Woodward said during a failed bid to keep two doctors jailed pending trial.

Quote:The government’s allegation is the latest development in a high-profile criminal case that is raising awareness about a procedure practiced by some members of the Dawoodi Bohra, a small sect of Shia Muslims.

Dr. Jumana Nagarwala of Northville is accused of mutilating the genitalia of two girls Feb. 3 at a Livonia clinic owned by Dr. Fakhruddin Attar.

The Farmington Hills man has been indicted along with his wife, Dr. Farida Attar, who is accused of helping arrange the procedure and being in the examination room while it was performed.

Quote:The government made the estimate based on Fakhruddin Attar allegedly telling investigators that Nagarwala treated girls at his clinic for “problems with their genitals” five or six times a year.

Prosecutors allege the mutilation conspiracy started 12 years ago.

Quote:Federal prosecutors allege the two 7-year-old girls who were brought to Metro Detroit on Feb. 3 suffered illegal genital mutilation at Fakhruddin Attar’s clinic in Livonia.

One girl told the FBI that Nagarwala “pinched” her on the “place (where) she goes pee,’ ” and a subsequent medical examinations showed the girl’s genitals did not appear normal and a section had been altered or removed, according to a court filing. A doctor also observed scar tissue and small healing lacerations.

The second girl identified Nagarwala as the doctor she visited in Detroit and a subsequent medical exam showed the girl’s genitalia had a small incision and a small tear, according to a court filing.

Quote:Fakhruddin Attar, 52, and Nagarwala, 44, face up to life in prison if convicted of conspiracy to transport minors with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity.

Farida Attar, 50, faces up to 20 years in prison if convicted of conspiring to obstruct the investigation.

There can be no defense of this practice but I'm sure some nut job liberal will try and present one.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali has tried for years to raise global awareness against the practice. And she has been labeled a hater and anti-Muslim and denied opportunities to speak at American colleges.

3. But we do male circumcision.
4. But the Christian right.
5. It's because racist Amerikkka deprived them good education.

Apparently they realize that this can't be justified, so they just ignore it and hope it goes away.

Yep. One of her more vocal critics is in my signature.

give me a f*cking break. anti FGM legislation has found as much support in congress from dems as it has from GOPers. numerous bill have been met with bipartisan support and Obama advocated against the practice.

hell in michigan it was just passed unanimously to criminalize it.

and good luck trying to find a politcal pattern to which states have/have not done it:

Another attempt by johnny to try to deflect and change the subject. No one suggested that there isn't a large bipartisan majority of Americans who would support a bill to ban this practice. But he makes that the center point of his post to deflect from the fact that it is happening.

Tiger's point was that someone, in the name of multiculturalism, would defend the FGM because it makes Muslim culture look brutalistic and archaic.

And it has been done on this board in the past. One of the resident proglodytes tried to argue that FGM was an "African" thing not a "Muslim" thing. Well the OP shows it is clearly practiced by Muslims, here in America. Trying to change the subject does nothing to change the facts.

RE: Feds estimate close to 100 girls suffered genital mutilation
Give me a break L. You are being a partisan hack trying to justify tiger's partisan hackery. You two knuckleheads are both advocating stigmatizing democrats and muslims which only proves the two of you are ignorant and incapable of intelligent commentary. Even if you find the one in a million multicultural liberal the fact remains you are ignoring the other 99.9% of libs. To narrow in on the outliers and use that as a tool against the whole group is stigmatizing no matter how you slice it and is rhetoric reserved for only cowards and bigots.

FGM is certainly a big problem in Muslim countries, but it is not exclusive to Muslim countries, and the Muslim countries where it is a problem are African.

Quote:Seven of the top eight countries with very high rates of female circumcision are majority Muslim, including the "almost universal" levels in Somalia, Egypt, Guinea and Djibouti. But Eritrea, as Aslan said, is No. 5 among countries with high prevalence at 89 percent, and it is home to more Christians than Muslims, according to Pew Research’s Religion and Public Life Project.

Ethiopia, which is 63 percent Christian and 34 percent Muslim, has a moderately high rate of 74 percent, making it No. 11 on the list.

So the countries in which female genital cutting is a practice are mostly Muslim, but they are not exclusively Muslim. Of the 29 countries tracked by UNICEF, 14 are home to more Christians than Muslims.

The two Middle Eastern, and predominantly Muslim, countries, Yemen and Iraq, have much lower rates of 23 percent and 8 percent, respectively.

Republicans on this forum really have no shame. Same thing with their posting threads on pedo LGBTers. "No I'm not being a bigot and I'm not trying to slander" I'm just choosing to selectively highlight a fringe example so that people think of that example as representative of the whole group."

If you wanna say the libs have multiculturalism fools then the conservatives have religious zealots as well who support FGM.

Please stop the name calling. All you do is diminish yourself and demonstrate that you can't deal with the subject.

FGM is happening in America. This is just an example. How much of this is going on that doesn't get caught? It is a cultural thing and it is demonstrably abhorrent. It is not bigotry to point out the depravity inherent within the culture of a group.
