Where Are The Feminists Now? Where Are The Leftists?

Horrific moment Muslim teacher demonstrates how a man should BEAT women with a stick - as Islamic group in Sydney says a husband's violence towards his wife is a 'beautiful blessing.'

Muslim men are allowed to hit their wives if they disobey them and domestic violence is a 'beautiful blessing', according to the women's branch of a radical Islamic group. Sydney primary school teacher Reem Allouche (left) told the women's arm of hardline Islamist political group Hizb ut-Tahrir that men are permitted to hit women with sticks. During the 30-minute discussion at a meeting in Sydney's west, Ms Allouche and fellow panellist Atika Latifi (right) - who are both wearing headscarves - describe how beating women is a 'symbolic act'. At one point they even demonstrated how to use a small stick called a 'sivaak' to hit 'disobedient' women. Islamic leader Keysar Trad apologised at the weekend for saying hitting women was a 'last resort', admitting to Sky News presenter Andrew Bolt that he had made a 'slip up'.
