Phyllis Chesler writes about the continuing nightmare for an American woman who was tricked into a marriage with a Muslim from Bahrain, and has ended up losing the custody of her daughter as a result of this taqqiya.
The American embassy has done nothing to help her cause, and despite John McCain's request, the forces of evil in Bahrain have not cooperated.
If this could be brought up by more people, maybe the poor woman whose daughter is being held hostage similar to the case of Betty Mahmoody's own daughter, could be given the help she needs to free hers from this tyrant and his equally loathsome family. That's why I'm also hoping more people are willing to get the word out about this.

Being tricked into marrying a Muslim certainly garners more sympathy than stupidly marrying a Muslim. I can see how this might have happened in the past but after all the stories of American women wedding middle eastern men and having the same problem as this woman, I must think it was stupidity. I don't feel her daughter should have to pay for this stupidity but that's who always pay when grownups make poor choices. Knowing how women are treated in Muslim countries I hope she can be helped for her daughters sake. This is just one more reason it needs to be common knowledge what Islam is and what it teaches. Maybe she's just a liberal that would explain everything.
