[14-year-old] Hena was raped by her 40-year-old relative Mahbub on Sunday. Next day, a fatwa was announced at a [Bangladesh] village arbitration that she must be given 100 lashes. She fell unconscious after nearly 80 lashes.But remember: Canadian culture and its Judeo-Christian moral foundation are not superior to any others.
Fatally injured Hena was rushed to Naria health complex where she succumbed to her injuries.
Over the past decade I've spent great time & energy to explain to apolitical Canadians what the term "multiculturalism" actually means. When I pointed out that its supporters truly believe that no one has any right to judge another culture as inferior, these apolitical folks thought I was joking, exaggerating, or even making it up altogether. Perhaps they just concluded that anyone who thought this way was clearly mentally ill. In this regard, they have a most valid point!
