During the 1974 the pan-Islamic Congress of Lahore they decided, with the tacit agreement of the Western countries, the elimination of a presidential chronometer in the country with a Muslim majority.

Is it a project or a project in progress? (Sudan, Sudan, Bosnia, Kosovo, Copts in Egypt, Pakistan, Timor, etc.). The Italian press has always kept silent when the attackers are Muslims! In fact, a work of disinformation does not remember the massacres against Muslims of this century Oil or water? Only excuse: here we are carriers of facts if we produce in the world but here we escape the information.

What are the reasons and interests at stake here if some events are realized and cause suffering and death?

Your conclusion, forcibly hasty, might seem uninformative towards the general public that appreciates you.

Egypt, at the time of the acquisition of its independence in 1922, had elected the first parliament in its history, and Mrs. Hoda Shaaraoui, the first woman to enter the first elected parliament, threw in public the “veil” she wore. (Her nephew is in Milan).

In the eyes of men this veil means submission of the woman, property to be hidden from the eyes of strangers, property subject to her husband, external sign of her purity of heart, with the anxiety of separation between the sexes that can lead to the closure of the woman.

A captivity created by centuries of social pressure, customs that have little to do with the dictates of the Koran of the seventh century.
