Jihad Mag for Women
Via BBC, a disturbing new entry to Mideast media:
Radical Islamists have launched a new magazine on the Internet especially for women, called Al-Khansa, after a famous Arab woman poet in the early days of Islam who wrote eulogies to male relatives who had died in battle.
One of its encouragements to jihad reads: "The blood of our husbands and the body parts of our children are our sacrificial offering."
It treats the issue of Saudi women's rights with scorn.

Listed below are links to weblogs that reference Jihad Mag for Women:
As Golda Meir once famously said, there can be no peace until the Arabs love their children more than they hate us.
Western journalists often fail to understand that this level of unreasoned hatred is not fuelled by a sense of injustice through lack of opportunity, but more by intervention from fundamentalists using poor conditions as an excuse. The chutzpah is that these same poor conditions have been more created by their own side than anything perpetrated by Western or Isareli forces.
One wonders whether the new bold world of intercommunication will eventually break down these prejudices in the same way that it lead to the downfall of Russian domination in Eastern Europe.
