A Headstone For Aqsa Parvez
ATLAS Shrugs has a campaign for Aqsa Parvez murdered in an honour killing:
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE. THIS DELICIOUS GIRL WHO FOUGHT TO LIVE A NORMAL LIFE. AQSA PARVEZ IS BURIED IN AN UNMARKED GRAVE. NUMBER 774.
I AM STARTING A COLLECTION TO BUY A HEADSTONE. I WILL CONTRIBUTE $180. IF YOU WISH TO HELP MAKE A CONTRIBUTION TO WriteAtlas@aol.ocm TO PAYPAL AND SPECIFY AQSA PARVEZ AND WE WILL HONOR AQSA.
THIS WRONG WILL BE RIGHTED.
With a headstone?
YOUR NAME WILL BE LISTED ON THE TOP RIGHT SIDEBAR – this wrong must be undone. Islam will not win and this gentle soul will not have died in vain.
But she was a Muslim.
In today’s Toronto Sun…
“Number 774. One year to the day Aqsa Parvez was stolen from this world — allegedly by two members of her family — that is all there is at her gravesite to show she even existed.
Section 17, plot number 774, in the Meadowvale Cemetery in Brampton, to be precise. No name, no date of birth, no date of death. No nothing.”
To be a woman is Islam … is to not exist.
That last line is a nonsense…
But a Minnesotan suicide bomber gets his remains brought home from Somalia at taxpayer expense for what looks here like a very respectful and well-attended funeral. An honorable death, presumably.
So being a Muslim is all? If it’s not, what do the two stories have in common…?
It’s about being an individual and the right to be what you choose, Muslim or not…
