					<description><![CDATA[&quot;The mufti of Nablus issued a decree approving hysterectomies â€œif they can put an end to a mental condition or social problemâ€.&quot;  This line cries out for snark.

This sort of thing used to be called Eugenics in the West and progressives loved it.

Sounds like Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.&#039;s &quot;Three generations of imbeciles is enough.&quot;

Such a hereditary mental condition (or social problem) could also be transmitted through the male line.  Where are the forced vasectomies?  (Long pause, sounds of crickets chirping).

You know, it seems a bit imprudent for Mr. Mufti of Nablus to approve hysterectomies for mental conditions or social problems.  I mean, there are a lot of people who are coming to think that jihadists are suffering from a mental condition and that Muslim aggression against non-Muslims is a social problem.  Mr. Mufti of Nablus&#039; fatwa sets a precedent he might consider to be unfortunate in the future, if radical Muslims do not mend their ways.  I mean, what&#039;s sauce fo the goose is sauce for the gander.

I suppose the only saving grace about this horrible story is that Nablus is not exactly the greatest and most respected center of Muslim legal scholarship and influence in the world.  I wonder what Al-Azhar would have to say on the issue? 

Norway&#039;s hatred of Israel makes perfect sense.  Norway has a problem with Muslim immigrants (for example they commit two-thirds of rapes in Norway).  Muslims hate Israel (Jews really but &quot;Israel&quot; sounds better to squeamish Westerners so Muslims use that term for soothing propaganda purposes).  If Norwegians hate Israel too, then Muslims will be less likely to do nasty things to Norwegians.  QED.  Right?  Right? (more crickets chirping).]]></description>
