Our goal is to find a better way forward for women and girls and to inoculate radicalism in a Muslim country that has, for hundreds of years, been a model progressive nation. Can you give some examples of how Tunisia has been a model progressive country for hundreds of years? Slavery persisted there until the beginning of the 20th century, despite the best efforts of the French. Is it only progressive when compared to other Muslim countries, many of which still practice slavery under the approval of Islam? Did you read this before posting Mothra? Did you hear a little voice inside you saying 'bullshit'? Not at all FD. Tunisia is every bit as progressive towards women as Australia. Women have been specifically represented by laws for decades. How long have women been specifically represented by law in Australia, FD? I didn't realise we had separate laws for women Mothra. Can you explain how Tunisia has "for hundreds of years, been a model progressive nation"? So this is you confirming that you can't google then. I did google it. The first thing I found was that slavery persisted there until the beginning of the 20th century, despite the best efforts of the French. Can you explain how you go from there, to Tunisia has "for hundreds of years, been a model progressive nation"? Do you consider slavery to be a progressive model? I'm not particularly interested in indulging you and your obvious design to railroad this thread and divert it from it's intended purpose, PD. It is noted, however, that you have been unable or unwilling to post on-topic. I'll leave you with this though. Do we currently have slavery in Australia? Your opening post, in the opening paragraph, contains a statement that is clearly false. It is so false it is absurd. It demonstrates the moral flexibility required to become a staunch apologist for Islam. When you speak up in defense of Islam, it becomes another opposite day. Still deflecting on irrelevancies is i see. But you avoided the question. Do we still have slavery in Australia? And at what point do you consider Australia became "progressive"? No we do not have slavery. Do you think lying about the enslavement of women in Tunisia's recent past helps the cause of women's rights? Oh but we most certainly do, FD. Sex slavery; slavery within marriages; immigrant workers etc. Do you think lying about it's existence helps the cause of these poor people? When do you consider Australia became progressive? Is that the sort of slavery you think they had in Tunisia until recently? Or do you think it might have been the type where you could wander down to the market place on a Wednesday afternoon, purchase yourself a young girl, then bring her back the next week to sell on if she didn't perform well enough?
