Bog-Busters In Indonesia? Trans-Freaks Arouse Islamic Ire!

Preface – for the benefit of North American readers, the word ‘bog’ is UK slang for ‘toilet’ in British slang!

.

Not all Indonesia toilets as as awful as this – there are many much nicer!

But men ought not to be using those meant for women

….

While I can’t immediately recall many, if any, occasions on which I’ve found myself at one with the ‘scholars’ of the MUI here in Indonesia…

.

…and in fact can recall innumerable times when they have appalled me…

“A Wise And Noble Step?” Islamic ‘Scholars’ On Terrorist Unleashed In Indonesia! 

 Bali Hindu King – Don’t Kill Our Cows! Muslim ‘Scholars’ – Get Lost!!  

 Islamist ‘Scholars’ – “Don’t Complain if You’re Attacked!” 

…today I read that the Indonesian Scholars Council are quite rightly condemning cross-dressers, who use their gender-bender outfits to gate-crash women’s toilets.

The MUI’s branch in South Sulawesi has issued an angry reminder that men are not to dress as women, after males have been reportedly sporting not only head-scarves ( hijabs) but even face-veils to hide what they really are!

.

.

.

There’s even a name been coined for the freakos – crosshijaber –
– and the MUI branch chairman, a Mr. Renreng, has warned them not to show up in his province.

This comes after the bizarre phenomenon has been raised in the DPR (parliament) Anggota DPR Minta Kemenag Bina Crosshijaber and by both the mainstream Muslim organisations, the NU and Muhammadiyah.

Muhammadiyah Minta Polisi Selidiki Crosshijaber

….

: PBNU soal Fenomena Crosshijaber: Itu di Luar Ajaran Islam

( you can use Google Translate for the above links)

With Hallowe’en approaching ( an annual event which the NU and Muhammadiyah dislike! ) people in the West can expect weirdly costumed characters to appear in their streets.

But of course many Indonesians, not just Muslims but also the large Christian minority, are fully aware that the trans-freaks are not a fun phenomenon…

————

…Macy’s has fired a Christian woman for refusing to violate her religious beliefs. Her offense? She prevented a man dressed as a woman from entering the women’s dressing room.  https://rossrightangle.wordpress.com/2011/12/08/boycott-macys/

….but seriously maladjusted individuals who refuse to seek help but are ever more arrogant in their assertion of  ‘rights.’

Few public figures are as brave as America’s Ben Carson.

Bravo Ben Carson! Freak Fans Flushed Out – Now Fire Them

• .He warned about “big, hairy men” posing as women to get into battered women’s shelters, according to several sources…

  https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/big-hairy-men-carson-outrages-hud-staffers-with-comments-about-transgender-homeless

  As a senior member of the Trump Administration, he deserves praise for speaking up – in sharp contrast to another Western politician, notorious for her appeasement outlook..…

  And get this, about UK decadence

  ……

So Sulawesi’s Mr. Renreng is wise to warn against the trans-freaks.

They may seem laughable as they mince about in women’s wear.

Yet when they start transgressing the bounds of decency, invading toilets ( bog-busting) and changing rooms, where women and girls should be able to feel safe from prurient perverts…

West Java – Depok’s Damnable Dreary Bigotry, Again!

No sooner have we reported on the Indonesian President’s alarm at the expansion of democracy in his country, than we have to highlight the shrinkage of religious liberty there.

…………

………

Almost needless to say, it’s back to Depok, a West Java municipality that abuts Jakarta, and has been the scene of disgusting persecution for years.

Shariah City? Some 12,000 Reasons To Steer Clear of Depok! . 

• The latest episode occurred this weekend, vicious victimisation of the peaceful and inoffensive Ahmadiyah minority.
• There’s apparently a video via this Metro TV link.  http://news.metrotvnews.com/peristiwa/ObzB7mlb-muncul-seruan-aksi-242-menolak-ahmadiyah-di-sawangan
• A mob-march on a small Ahmadi congregation, bigots determined to shut them down? Will the police drive the bigots back, or force the Ahmadis to knuckle under?
• .. 
• If the cops allow suppression of religious liberty in Depok, it sure won’t be the first time. Even unlawful seizure of the minority’s property has gone unpunished in the past.
  

   Depok Jadi Kota PKI? Islamist Council Grabs Private Property, Communist-Style. 

  • They make me want to vomit, all the usual suspects reportedly involved.
  • But a few others, people one might have hoped would speak up for pluralist values, have aligned themselves with Depok’s Dark Agers. 
  • Metro reports the following have appended their names to an appeal for a bigot mob to prevent the minority creed worshipping God.
  • \
  • Ahmad Daman Huri, head of the Islamic boarding school Al Karimiyah;
  • Abdullah Syafii, MUI Chairman in Sawangan;
  • Syahlani, NU Leader in Sawangan;
  • Mustofa, Muhammadiyah Leader in Sawangan;
  • Agus Rahmat Djaelani, FPI Chairman, Depok City

  • Who knows, since Muhammadiyah’s kingpin, Din, became MUI’s also? I’d hoped Din might stamp out the backward elements among the ‘scholars’ – like their neanderthal enthusiasm for FGM and stoning adulterers.
  • But so far no joy.
  • And now we read of the Depok Muhammadiyah man lending support to suppression of religious freedom.

  • It’ll be down to the Depok cops.
  • Going back a year or so, we heard encouraging noises from the Presidential Palace. Jokowi Urges Cops To Protect Minorities – in Depok?

UK Ambassador in Jakarta Joins Muslim ‘Mass Movement!’

• Somewhat surprised to read that the United Kingdom and Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) on Friday signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to cooperate on promoting religious tolerance and countering extremism.

And even more surprised to read that Her Britannic Majesty’s Ambassador in Jakarta is now a member of the NU. During the signing of the MoU, Malik was awarded honorary NU membership for being a foreign Muslim who promotes moderate Islamic values.UK, NU sign MoU to promote religious tolerance –

Mr. Moazzam Malik is said to be a very pleasant gent, and no doubt tries his best to win friends and influence people all over Indonesia.

But after recent events, with a moronic mob of Islamist bigots in Bekasi, one of Jakarta’s satellite cities, preventing the construction of a Christian church which has all the permits and approvals required by law…

https://rossrightangle.wordpress.com/2016/03/09/bekasi-bigots-v-religious-liberty-again/ …

…and the brazen denial of religious liberty in Subang…  https://rossrightangle.wordpress.com/2016/03/29/sectarian-intolerance-rules-in-subang-west-java/ …

…my rapidly decreasing ability to be surprised was tapped once more by His Excellency’s words as quoted in the Jakarta Post, viz. Indonesia had firsthand experience in promoting pluralism and moderation in religious practice.

Having spent several Sundays in recent years across from the Presidential Palace in downtown Jakarta, with the GKI Yasmin Protestants forced to worship on the road because the Government of Indonesia refuses to enforce its own Supreme Court’s ruling in favour of the dispossessed congregants…

Still Shunned by ‘Pluralist’ President, Java Christians Observe Easter On the Street 

 …I would welcome some clarification of the Ambassador’s assertion.

However, let’s move on, examining the NU, of which he’s now a proud member.

ooooooooooooooooooooooo

———————

I’ve covered their activities often enough over the past decade, and they are certainly among the better Islamic outfits in the archipelago. Their youth wing, Banser, are noted for their courage in standing up to foul fanatics.

Only a month or two ago I noted approvingly  that ‘the IslamoNazi FPI was facing significant resistance in Banyumas, Central Java.’ Bravo, Banyumas! Decent Muslims Stand Up To IslamoNazi FPI! 

‘Organisations affiliated to the NU reject the intended arrival of Habib Rizieq,’ says the report ,http://utama.seruu.com/read/2016/02/15/272680/antipati-pada-radikalisme-agama-meluas-fpi-ditolak-di-banyumas.

Rizieq is a ranting jihadist, the so-called ‘high priest’ of one of the most unpleasant gangs in Indonesia.

And if we look back a bit, the senior levels of the NU have also been a source of good sense.

• For example, Said Aqil Siroj, who was surely echoing the thoughts and prayers of every decent human being, of all creeds when he toldthe media…
• ——
• 
• ——————-
•  …that the IslamoNazi thug gang should be –
• immediately disbanded …Indonesia, said Said, does not require such an organization..it is not suitable to this country…
• These photos of vicious, violent FPI louts, many of them too yellow-bellied to maraud without masks, illustrate the cancer he’s talking about.

oooooooooo

So good for Said.

But what about this NU luminary?

=========

NU SUPPORTS BANNING AHMADIYAH

Slamet Effendi Yusuf

————————————————————————————————-

NU said governors’ prohibition of Ahmadiyah had their support. This was delivered by the Vice Chairman of the NU, Slamet Effendi Yusuf, on Monday (28/3). According to Slamet, it is a local government duty to maintain order….NU boards in certain areas, for example in West Java, East Java, and Sumatra, strongly expressed support for the governors’ rule…

Hey, NU – Don’t Deny Your Intolerance! “Moderate” Islamists Blame Anyone But Themselves

And then there’s the infamous case right here in Jakarta, where the NU raised hell about the inclusion of a Christian church in Gandaria City Mall.

—

‘The Community and Citizens of the NU Reject a Church in Gandaria City!

Bigot banner at Gandaria

—————-

It was sheer ignoramus bigotry, because nobody protested when a mosque was included in Blok M Square mall.

And when I say ‘ignoramus,’ I mean it, because no church was ever scheduled for Gandaria -it was all much ado about nothing, sectarian nasties frothing about a non-existent ‘threat of Christianisation!’ ‘

That’s a big phobia here, among crack-pot clerics who fear their flocks will do a runner if exposed to other ways of worship! 

And what about this NU notable?

In the Yasmin, Bogor case, continued Hasyim, that cannot be the measure of Indonesia’s religious intolerance.  “I have been there many times, but it seems they do not want to get it settled…,” he said.

Hasyim, full name Hasyim Muzadi, is a VERY prominent NU spokesman, chairman when he spoke those words which expose his outlandish intolerance.

Because he KNOWS those Yasmin Protestants  – the ones who worship every second Sunday across from the Palace – fought for their rights all the way to the highest court in the land (most judges there, if not all, are Muslims who plainly understand civilised values like fair play and freedom of religion rather better than Hasyim) and they WON.

0000000

0000000

So Hasyim just hogwashed when he said they don’t want to get it settled.

It IS settled, for law-abiding citizens. Bogor’s Islamist bigots were and still are, alas…

X-Rated Xmas – Foul-Mouths Bully Christians, As ‘Moderate’Mayor Denies They Exist!’ 

 …in the wrong when they sealed that church.

What a shame Hasyim’s so content to leave that wrong unrighted.

———————————

And here’s Hasyim,  showing he’s a man untroubled about company he keeps, because that character dressed up in what you might think is fancy-dress, is none other than the afore-mentioned Habib Rizieq, darling  of IslamoNazis everywhere.

———–

But don’t for a minute think it’s only persecuted Christians for whom Hasyim doesn’t give a monkey’s! Here’s his follow-up rant  on the most persecuted people in this country, the Ahmadis –

If the measure ( of religious intolerance) is the problem of Ahmadiyah, Hasyim said, that’s because Ahmadiyah deviates from the basic teachings of Islam, but always uses a “rubber stamp” to call themselves Muslim and is politically oriented towards the West.

So HE thinks they deviate?

—-

–

——-

Big deal. Anyone in a free country can deviate from the established religious in-crowd. Again, as Hasyim certainly knows, that is NOT the problem. The Ahmadis never bother other creeds, They worship peacefully and are exemplary citizens.

The PROBLEM is ignorant bigoted Islamist intolerance.

————

 Evil Sunni pig revels in the martyrdom of Ahmadis

“It is very important for people in the UK to see Islam in Indonesia,”says the current British Ambassador – does he know that nobody was ever charged with the murder of those Ahmadi victims?

000000000000000

Innocent Ahmadis have been murdered by moronic mobsters. Hasyim’s hogwash take on this is an affront to reason.

As was his other rant when he hyper-ventilated that reporting Islamist thuggery was a form of ‘white-collar crime!’ Read it here! …https://rossrightangle.wordpress.com/2012/09/03/the-moderate-view-reporting-sectarian-violence-to-un-is-white-collar-crime/.

So Her Majesty’s British Government should NOT be signing up to deals with the NU unless it purges itself of extremists like Hasyim, and Slamet Effendi Yusuf and the obnoxious clowns we saw at  Gandaria.

And His Excellency should reconsider accepting his honorary membership, unless he carries a VERY long spoon in the boot of his ambassadorial limo.

So no wonder respectable people want nothing to do with the noisome outfit.

The report notes that the decision is based on concern that establishment of the FPI, known for its violent actions and intolerance, will disrupt the peaceful situation in Banyumas.

This is seriously good news. And not unique – we saw recently a massive demo by decent Muslims in Purwakarta, when Rizieq’s appearance there had to be protected by police.

Bravo, Purwakarta! IslamoNazis Cower Behind Cops – Again!

Post-Sarinah – Jokowi Faces Fanatic Challenge in Bangka

The post-Sarinah assertions that Indonesia is a beacon of tolerance unbowed by Islamist evil is about to be put to the test.

————————-

•  Bangka Belitung (shaded)
• —————————–

• The bigots who run Bangka Regency, in Bangka Belitung province, are echoing ISIS’s eagerness to drive out a peaceful religious minority, the Ahmadis, simply because of how they worship God Almighty.
• No official backing for violence, of course, but the intensity of the in-crowd’s intolerance is shocking.
• And, as the innocent Ahmadis are apparently to be given a choice, turn apostate or face eviction, what happens to those who take a principled stand?
• ——————-
• ——————
• 

———————————————–

Now the ball is in President Jokowi’s court.

He can sit back and let it happen, or he can uphold the Ahmadis’ constitutional right to religious liberty. The Ahmadiyah population is tiny up there, and in any case they are a completely inoffensive group.

But still the haters want them gone.

—————————

• 
• ——————

• “The government should protect the rights of citizens and promote dialogue among people, instead of getting involved in the conflict and making it worse,” Indonesian Ahmadiyah Congregation (JAI) spokesman Yendra Budiana said on Sunday.

The Ahmadi spokesman was referring to a letter urging Ahmadiyah followers in Srimenanti subdistrict, Sungailiat district, to convert to the mainstream Sunni teachings of the Indonesian Muslim majority or face expulsion from the regency. 

—–

The Bangka bigots’ letter

—

Underlining the malevolent fanaticism behind the message was its aggressive assertion that the JAI was forbidden from spreading its teachings in the regency. One expects this kind of backward bigotry from Hizbut Tahrir or the IslamoNazi FPI thug-gang.

But the Jakarta Post report reveals that those attending the Religious Community Harmony Forum (what an incongruous name!) whence the diktat emerged included not  only the infamously intolerant self-styled ‘scholars’of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI)…

—————–

————————-

….but also local representatives of two major organisations that like to parade themselves as ‘moderate.’

•  oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

 Din

—————–

• Will Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and Muhammadiyah disown their district minions if they’re behind such jihadist nonsense? But then Muhammadiyah’s leading light, Din Syamsuddin, is also an MUI king-pin.

But what’s arguably even worse is that the Bangka Police chief was also involved, not to protect and serve the latest targets of jihadist bullies, but to facilitate the persecution.

In the meeting, the Bangka police chief and the district chief all called for the expulsion of Ahmadiyah followers.

What is the National Police Chief going to do about his subordinate up there? Instant dismissal would be a good start, if the JP report is true.

These disgusting antics are just another aspect of former President SBY’s legacy.

—–

 SBY

——-

• It was SBY who called for a worldwide ‘blasphemy law’ to crush free speech on a global basis. SBY to ask the world to ban blasphemy | The Jakarta Post—-

And he it was, also, who rubber-stamped the iniquitous Tri-Ministerial Decree.  

I could refer you to many previous posts on that vile edict, but the JP gives a brief summary of its content. It ordered the Ahmadiyah community to “stop spreading interpretations and activities that deviate from the principal teachings of Islam.”.

And who gets to say what’s deviant and what’s not?

The MUI, of course! They are rather odd ‘scholars,’ in that they tend to skulk behind collaborationist cops rather than risk being bested in theological argument.  

The MUI – Belligerence Is Bad News! 

Those who violate the decree can face up to five years in prison.

——

A pretty lady? Understatement, I suppose, but there are so many here in Indonesia. 

But she has become the target of Islamist loudmouths, accused of ‘not caring about the nation’s morality.’  Rather than morality, I tend to think it’s Liliana’s perceptive description of misogynistic ranters as ‘barking dogs‘ that got right up the rabid noses.

And how about Ratna Nurlia Alfiandini, one of the causes of the benighted white-shirt gang’s indignation.

Ain’t she lovely?

Ratna was a contestant, Aceh’s representative in the Miss Indonesia contest, and here’s the current one, Jeyskia Ayunda Sembiring.

=======

• 

—

Beautiful, indeed, but not atypical of women here, long black glossy hair, leggy lissom figure – many of the lovelies I see behind supermarket cashiers’ counters could well be entrants too. 

But the two girls above were chosen to represent Aceh, and that has not gone down well with the sectarian bigots who infest that sorry place.

Aceh is the only part of Indonesia where shariah law is enforced, and best avoided by civilised human beings.

–

The Sharia Hell of Aceh!

–

And while there are degrees of fanaticism among shariah’s supporters, it’s probably fair to say that the FPI ( self-styled ‘Defenders of Islam’) are as bad as it gets.

So needless to say, they’re incensed that there’s a participant from there in the contest. 

And they’re playing on the fact that, although Ratna and Jeyskia are of Acehnese stock, they were born elsewhere in Indonesia. It’s a bit like if Taffy and Morwen Rhys move from Cardiff to London and have a daughter who grows up to be a beauty, she could be picked as Miss Wales.

Arguable, I suppose, but none of the fuss would likely have erupted if the two Miss Aceh gals had not competed without shrouding their good looks in the scarf of subjugation. 

Tengku Mustafa Husen Woyla, FPI’s spokesman in Aceh, is beside himself. Liliana is shameless and has no business ethics – that’s his riposte to her ‘canine’ comment.

———————-

•  Mustafa Woyla, of FPI Aceh

• He’s clever in his way, however, trying to dress up his sexism in feminist lingo, ‘exploitation of women’ etc.
• But we know from his Jakarta comrade what they really think of sex equality.  

  • IslamoNazi Gauleiter – “Women Already Have Limitations, Let Alone Non-Muslims!” 

   “Aceh has nothing to lose in the absence of representation…If you appreciate Islamic Aceh values adopted by the majority of the people of Aceh,” he said  “the people of Aceh are proud of the exclusion of Acehnese women from the immoral event.”

IMMORAL?

Yeah, that’s what he said!  The hatred of beauty among Islamists was well-documented when Miss World came here not long ago.

IslamoNazis Slur Miss World Girls – ‘Whore Contest!’ 

And now this nasty wants to drag delightful ladies into court!

“FPI urges the Aceh government to prosecute the illegal contestants who have tarnished the good name of the Veranda of Mecca. This is a serious problem. If there is no response, we (FPI) will take legal action to sue the organizers and contestants on behalf of Aceh…”

But what really rankles, seemingly, is that Jeyskia has gone on record with the undoubtedly true statement that women in Aceh are not identical with the scarf.

Well, hell, of course they’re not. If they were, the backward bigots wouldn’t need a shariah goon-squad to back up their oppressive war on women.

–

Wilayatul Hisbah, the shariah goon-squad

They wouldn’t need to send trucks around the towns to harass and detain women who dress like women rather than like sacks of Idaho potatoes.

Of course Wolya’s not on his own in this offensive chattering. 

Vice Chairman of the MPU Aceh, Tgk H Faisal Ali, is also in a stew. The MPU represents ‘scholars’ up there. Another of their clique got into our blog a few years ago…

Aceh’s Mad Mullah – ‘Dancing is EVIL – It Involves Body Movements!’ 

..,so no surprise they are on the sectarian band-wagon. But what about the NU, supposedly the biggest ‘moderate’ Muslim organisation in Indonesia. 

Chairman of the Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) Aceh – ‘the appearance of women referred to as Miss Aceh in the event did not reflect that Aceh applies Sharia law..“Therefore, we assume, the relevant participation in Miss Indonesia has made a defamation of Aceh, which is nicknamed the Veranda of Mecca…,” he said. http://aceh.tribunnews.com/2015/02/18/ulama-minta-gubernur-panggil-miss-aceh

Most ‘moderate’ – but then he and the MPU spokesman are one and the same person!

Actually, chronic kill-joyism among ‘scholars’ in Indonesia isn’t confined to Aceh. The same sort of stuff and nonsense can be heard in Jakarta…

Of course it’s up to them whom they invite to their Indonesian Muslims Congress. The report suggests the ban on dissenters is due to the intolerant self-styled ‘scholars’ of the state-sponsored MUI.

President Jokowi could save a small fortune for tax-payers by cutting off state-funding to that lot. 

One would have hoped that bigot gangster groups like the self-styled ‘Defenders of Islam Front.’ aka the IslamoNazi FPI, would also have been excluded, for bringing the creed into disrepute by their lawless thuggery and vandalism.

But far from it! 

“MUI ingin menjadi tenda besar (bagi seluruh umat Islam). FPI, LDII, MMI (Majelis Mujahidin Indonesia), Hizbut Tahrir dan ormas lain dilibatkan,” said Din Syamssuddin.   http://jogja.tribunnews.com/2015/01/23/yogya-tuan-rumah-kongres-umat-islam-indonesia/

•  Din

• Din spent years leading the ‘moderate’ Muhammadiyah movement, and is now top man in the MUI.
• Yet he boasts of making the Congress a ‘big tent’ to include not only the infamous IslamoNazis but also the democracy-hating Hizbut Tahrir and the loutish MMI, which you can read about here  https://rossrightangle.wordpress.com/2012/02/16/islamonazi-thugs-attack-indonesian-artist-in-jogja/

But on the plus side, it’s pleasing to see they have spurned the ignorant and primitive sex apartheid that disfigures some Islamist outfits. We even saw such mediaeval nonsense sprout in the UK a year or two ago.

• …Moderate Islam is also friendly to the local culture. “As in this forum, men and women are not segregated,” he said. 

GOOD TO HEAR. Indonesian culture has traditionally been very civilised. Women in Java, for example, wear lovely kebayas, baring their smooth brown shoulders for all to admire.

And despite fanatic howling, most Muslim women eschew the scarf of subjugation.

But even the smart Azra seems to have overlooked a few facts when he says that ‘this Islam is an Islam that rejects violence.’ I guess he missed the inclusion of notorious vigilante mobsters noted above.

And moreover…

The NU and Muhammadiyah have, in the past, a fairly good record in opposition to violence, true, but the MUI has neither disowned nor disciplined their notorious Muhammad Al Kaththath, who called for the death of an innocent atheist simply for posting opinions on Facebook. Who Was Our Third Voter?

And while MUI may claim that Al K’s a minor figure, who’s forgotten their utterly irresponsible former Chairman Amidhan’s outburst, a few Ramadhans back.

•      –Speaking of IslamoNazi hoodlums who launch violent on mini-markets which don’t kow-tow to seasonal intolerance, our non-violent Amidhan told any store manager indifferent to MUI’s sectarian policies –

DON’T COMPLAIN IF YOU’RE ATTACKED!-Islamist ‘Scholars’ – “Don’t Complain if You’re Attacked!” .  

I hope ‘moderate’ Din enjoyed hob-nobbing with the white-shirt sectarian bullies during the congress. And I hope neither he nor the MUI is any longer described in ill-informed media as a ‘moderate.’

Jibbering in Jember – Buffoons Beat Retreat On Virginity Tests

Yes, I know it’s properly spelt ‘gibbering,’ but anything for an alliterative headline.

No matter my spelling, my mood today is restrained relief, at the news of Jember City Council’s rapid retreat from the bridgehead of buffoonery built last week by two of its members.

–

–

The clowns made statements to the media, revelling at the prospect of imposing ‘virginity tests’ on teenage girls, the aim being to deny high school graduation to kids who ‘fail.’

After uproar, their colleagues have disowned the creepy call.

But what about the creeps in question?

It’s obviously the duty of their party leaders to remove them from not just positions of responsibility in local government, but from party membership. No serious party, surely, wants its reputation tainted by retaining such individuals within its ranks.

“What surprises us the most is they have had sex several times and with different partners,” Habib Isa Mahdi, a lawmaker from the People’s Conscience Party (Hanura)..“There’s a need to protect our children,” he said. “Jember has to be brave to act to save them.”

Congratulations to MN Harisuddin, spokesman for the largest Muslim organisation in Indonesia, who pointed out the policy’s asinine sexism. 

“Say the bill is passed, the test would be simple to conduct, but why is it only done for the female students? How about the boys?”

But you can’t keep dimwittery down for long.

• 

Up popped Mufti Ali, of the PKB, (National Awakening Party) – that dork told the media the iniquitous test should not only be imposed on every Jember girl-child but expanded to the entire Province of East Java.  His vindictiveness springs off the printed page. 

“If they’re not virgins anymore, don’t let them pass!”

Then a tiny wee glimmer of the real world filtered through to his sorry soul.

“It may sound like a joke….”

But only for the twinkling of an eye. Then back into loony-tunes mode.

“..but it’s serious. It’s for the sake of the future….I agree that virginity should become a [requirement] for graduation. I will tell my friends to make it a regional regulation. We can’t only rely on their conscience to behave well. There should also be pressure.”

Of course these fatuous fellows can say and think what they like.

But any party which does not expel them with immediate effect MUST be regarded as seriously irresponsible.

Their grotesque sexism is nauseating to read – its enactment would fall into the category of a gross violation of the victimised school-girls’ human rights.

Interestingly, even the ‘scholars’ of the MUI, who reckon that female circumcision is a human right…

  MUI’s Ma’aruf Amin …he rejects any attempt to declare this practice illegal or contrary to the principles. It comes under the sphere of “human rights,” said the Islamist leader, and is “guaranteed by the Constitution.”http://www.asianews.it/news-en/Indonesian-Ulema-in-favour-of-female-circumcision:-a-human-right-26948.html

…drew the line at the ghastly crap spouted by Ali and Isa. The ‘scholars’ said the test was haram! Maybe that caused the climb-down?

Sometimes even MUI gets it right.

Will the leaderships of PKB and Hanura?  

Oya, and how about President Jokowi – will he now order the Police to scrap the barbaric sexist practice, which is reportedly perpetrated against female recruits? Use of Virginity Tests Must End, Activists Tell Joko
