Now here are some questions for the Hen-Hawks in BOs administration

God knows Egypt was not the perfect world for women, but relatively it was a bastion of liberty in a region of oppression.

But the flatters in the Obama regime such as Mrs Bill Clinton, Samantha Power, et all told BO "Let's get rid of Mubark, it will be a great place...."

Well, again, will anyone ask Mrs Bill Clonton about this.

Amnesty: Egypt army acknowledges 'virginity tests'

CAIRO (AP) -- Amnesty International said Monday that Egypt's military rulers have acknowledged carrying out so-called "virginity tests" on female protesters - the first time the army has admitted to the much-criticized practice.

Maj. Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, a member of the military council ruling Egypt since the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak, justified the tests as a way to protect the army from rape allegations, Amnesty said.

But the rights watchdog said al-Sisi vowed the military would not conduct such tests in the future.

The "virginity test" allegations first surfaced after a March 9 rally in Cairo's Tahrir Square that turned violent when men in plainclothes attacked protesters and the army intervened forcefully to clear the square.

Amnesty has found 18 female detainees were forced to undergo the tests.

"Subjecting women to such degrading procedures hoping to show that they were not raped in detention makes no sense, and was nothing less than torture," the Amnesty International secretary general, Salil Shetty, who met with the military council, said in a statement issued by the group...

OK Mrs Clinton, Egypt was not a favorite of Amnesty International but I don't recall mass rape by the army under Mubarak. Gee Mrs Clinton, ain't you glad you pushed to get the Muslim Brotherhood in charge of what was a relatively secular nation and a quiet border nation for Israel.

God, how did we ever get this bad....oh yea, a majority of the voters in votes for a moron....do we need adults back in the executive branch again.
