One of the biggest reasons she's still alive is because of all the attention that she's gotten from around the globe. Being forgotten is her biggest fear, so PLEASE send, share, repost this song where ever you can in support of our sister Eman. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pl4L3ZxriOMsightgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02081586418292198910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457342744528800740.post-32589182667170599792011-03-27T21:05:12.081-07:002011-03-27T21:05:12.081-07:00Shocking video.

Not the sisterhood... yes, pity the women and girls who are raped in Dafur and similarly elsewhere, when walking distances to collect water for their family. There is the story that when a man was asked why he let the woman go, and not himself, he replied that he would be killed, whereas she would be raped and released. A universal story.Juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01689344420222672662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457342744528800740.post-18653930660580752572011-03-27T13:49:10.248-07:002011-03-27T13:49:10.248-07:00Here is a translated interview with 29 year old Im...Here is a translated interview with 29 year old Iman's cousin:<br />http://feb17.info/general/video-eman-el-obeidis-cousin-speaks-out-translated/Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07832598340281188742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457342744528800740.post-82009544853799761532011-03-27T13:47:23.760-07:002011-03-27T13:47:23.760-07:00http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/libyan-woman-o...http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/libyan-woman-offers-glimpse-into-workings-of-gaddafi-government/2011/03/26/AFNppLkB<br /><br />Eman's mother speaks out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457342744528800740.post-88645552895527245392011-03-27T02:16:00.917-07:002011-03-27T02:16:00.917-07:00Once many years ago I witnessed men 'rescuing&...Once many years ago I witnessed men 'rescuing' a young Turkish woman who had drunk too much during the ferry crossing from Malagia to Ceuta! I was much less aware and knowledgeable in those days about the atrocities raged against women in the Arab world, yet still felt something very wrong was going to happen so helpless to assist, partly due to cultural and language skills, on landing was ushered and encouraged very uncermoniously to disembark. To this day I feel I failed that woman and dread to think what became of her.<br />Seeing the plight of this woman tonight on the evening news I felt the bite of that defeat once more and could strongly identify with those journalists who like me were powerless to help this woman. May she survive and live to bring those who so wronged her to justice.<br />Men who rape should suffer a similar fate as punishment. Each and everyone no exception.cobwebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04701847617673790053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457342744528800740.post-28749394292392251362011-03-27T01:19:40.231-07:002011-03-27T01:19:40.231-07:00Christine, thank you for writing about this poor w...Christine, thank you for writing about this poor woman. Please check out the Facebook page that calls for her release as well. I'm grateful to the journalists who tried to defend her! We all need to do what is possible to demand her immediate release.
