Jasmine began by sharing her harrowing personal experiences: her mother’s conversion to radical Islam, her forced marriage to an Al-Qaeda terrorist, and the traumatic impact these events had on her life. Our discussion covered a wide range of topics, including the Islamic religion, Islamic immigration in Europe, and the specific challenges faced by Muslim immigration in London.

Identity politics had ALREADY infected our legal system by 2001 (certainly in Canada) to the point where girls from families headed up by Islamists had a different legal status and lacked legal protections and recourse than other citizens. This meant the institutional capture by woke ‘progressives’ had ALREADY been well underway to the point where judges were using identity markers to establish rulings. I remember a Quebec judge ruling a child could suffer anal rape by a grandfather because that keeping her vagina ‘pure’ was part of her culture and acceptably so to the tolerant and nice Canadian legal system who shouldn’t interfere with religious belief of the Islamic family. And this is how Yasmine’s life unfolded in Vancouver – fully garbed as a hand-off piece of property owned by the man of the household rather than a Canadian citizen owed legal protections from domestic abuse.
The moral abdication and ejected principles needed to rationalize this legal withdrawal to allow harm to multiply unencumbered by any respect for, and protection of, individual rights and freedoms by the courts and police and the politicians only too willing to sacrifice others in their quest to be seen as ‘progressives’ should be understood as more shameful than those who cheered on McCarthyism.
It has only gotten worse over the past decades.
