News: Al-Qaeda says Muslim women are prohibited to sit on chairs

I found a very funny article about strict female control by al-Qaeda propaganda. Muslim women are banned to sit on chairs. They must wear traditional clothes and no make-up nor jeans. They are not allowed to smoke. Well, I can tell that the cops should be looking for the Muslim females in traditional clothes, non-smoker, and refuging to sit down on a chair as the possible al-Qaeda member in Syria. That sounds easy to categorize traditional looking women and yet no more siting on the chair makes a quite a difference. In the trains and buses, the Muslim woman who tries to stand all the time would be more likely to be the al-Qaeda member. Also, in the airplane... you know, the woman cannot sit down and the airplane cannot start a flight due to someone is not seated properly.

Also, the first line shows enough for some Christians to be acceptable to be anti-Islam, right? I don't like the Muslim's pagan sexist philosophy and violence.

Consider the al-Qaeda-linked Islamic State of Iraq and Levant’s (ISIL) recent occupation of Raqqah, a city in northern Syria.  First there was the overt violence.  Among other acts of savagery, the jihadi organization attacked two Christian churches—the Church of the Annunciation and the Church of Martyrs—broke their crosses, burned their Bibles, and raised the Islamic flag in triumph.  One video depicts a Muslim “freedom fighter” smashing a Virgin Mary statue to shouts of Islam’s victory cry, “Allahu Akbar!”

Now consider the rules that organizations like ISIL enforce on the people living in the territories they occupy—or the inevitable “talibanization” of societies where Islamic supremacists hold sway.  A Syrian news clip recounts the following new laws ISIL promulgated in a statement it issued soon after taking over Raqqah:

• Women are banned from sitting on chairs (as reported verbatim).
• All women are obligated to wear Islamic attire, such as the niqab and burqa (which cover the entire body and face); sweaters, jeans, and makeup of any kind are strictly banned.
• Female clothing is not to be displayed in shop windows, and only women are allowed to work there; if a man is found on the grounds the shop faces closure.
• Women are banned from seeing male gynecologists.
• Smoking—cigarettes, water pipes, etc.—is banned.  Violators could face the death penalty; shops found selling cigarettes are to be burned to the ground.
• All barbershops are to be closed down and men forbidden from having short hair, wearing modern hairstyles or using hair products; men are also forbidden from wearing low-waist jeans.
• Anyone who uses the word “Daash” (an Arabic acronym for the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant in Arabic) will receive 70 whippings; the organization is to be referred to by its proper name.

The punishments are indeed severe: swindling taxi drivers face repercussions ranging from chopped hands to chopped heads; the reason cited is that their swindling may somehow interfere with a passenger’s worship (e.g., a Muslim seeking to go to mosque at the proper time).  Likewise, shop owners who do not shut down during prayer times must face the consequences.
