It is a life of misery, physical and emotional abuse and oppression for any woman who is a muslim or marries a muslim man in such an extremely misogynistic culture where women are treated less than human, nothing more than chattel. Obviously Naama was very young and naive and did not know any better and had no understanding of the evil of islam when she married this fiend in order to rebel against her parents and Judaism. <br /><br /><blockquote>(IsraelNN.com) After a 17-year captivity to an abusive Muslim husband, a Jewish mother and her eight children were rescued Sunday from the Muslim quarter of Jerusalem's Old City. Yad L'Achim, an organization dedicated to solving problems of this type, freed Naama [not her real name] from imprisonment in her own home and almost two decades of fear, shame and violence. Seizing a window of opportunity – her husband was in prison and his brother under house arrest – her liberators wove through the narrow alleyways of the Muslim Quarter to deliver her to safety. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />When her rescuers arrived, Naama was living as a Muslim wife in every way, and her Arabic-speaking children had no Jewish identity. All that was set to change as she stepped out this week into a new life among her people.<br /><br />Naama, now around 40, grew up in a Torah-observant home in the Golan Heights. At 20, she rebelled against Judaism. Constant fighting with her parents and her decision to stop observing Shabbat culminated in a falling-out with her family, and Naama left her home to seek a different life. Vulnerable, with her life in a volatile state, Naama met an Arab man, who married her and brought her to the Muslim Quarter, promising her a warm, stable home where she would be loved and feel happy. Naama's life as a Muslim began.<br /><br /><br />In time, she gave birth to eight children, who were raised as Muslims. Meanwhile her husband's abusive nature began to reveal itself. By Naama's account, her children endured a life of violence from their father, and she herself ended up living in a state of fear, threats and constant abuse from the Arab man.<br /><br />The increasingly lawless nature of Naama's Arab husband led to his arrest by Israeli police and his incarceration in an Israeli prison. With her husband temporarily out of Naama's life, his brother was placed under house arrest, leaving Naama with a window of opportunity to flee her life of Islamic servitude.</blockquote><a href="http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/126886">Continue</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="http://blogcarnival.com/bc/sidebar_c2_v1_43.js" > </script></div>LELhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14973177230144550659noreply@blogger.com
