Dear Daniel,
This is my second comment to you regading the Islamic Rapist and somewhat a retraction of my first comments that you kindly published.
Refering to a horrific gang-rape of an Australian woman in 2000, Sydney's most senior Muslc cleric Sheik Hilaly destroyed the claims by cultural relativists that Sydney's series of gang rapes by Muslim men had nothing to do with culture or religion.
"If you take uncovered meat and put it on the street ... without a cover and the cats eat it, is it the fault of the cat or the uncovered meat?" he said in the sermon to 500 people last month at Lakemba mosque. "The uncovered meat is the problem. If the meat was covered, the cats wouldn't roam around it. If the meat is inside the fridge, they won't get it ... if the woman is in her boudoir, in her house and if she's wearing the veil and if she shows modesty, disasters don't happen."
Then in a clear reference to the gang rape trial of Bilal Skaf, he said:
"A woman possesses the weapon of seduction. It is she who takes off her clothes, shortens them, flirts, puts on make-up and powder and takes to the streets, God protect us ... then it's a look, then a smile, then a conversation ... then a date, then a meeting, then a crime, then Long Bay jail. Then you get a judge, who has no mercy, and he gives you 65 years."
The only incitement committed by 18-year-old Ms C, who was raped 25 times by up to 14 men including Skaf in 2000, was being Australian. Sitting on a train, dressed for a job interview in her best suit, and reading The Great Gatsby, she was a slut, an "Aussie pig" as they called her later, while boasting: "I'm going to f--- you Leb style."
"I looked in his eyes. I had never seen such indifference," she said.
