Mark Steyn puts it well:
Yet there is something not just boring but grotesque in western feminists’ inability to prioritize. They seem implicitly to have accepted a two-tier sisterhood, in which white upscale liberal women twitter about NR columnists’ appalling misogyny in criticizing a female Bush Administration official, while simultaneously the women of the fastest growing population group in the western world are forced into clitoridectomies, forced into burqas, forced into marriage, forced into psychiatric wards, forced into hiding – and, if all else fails, forced off the apartment balcony by their brothers and fathers to fall to their deaths, as has happened to at least seven Muslim girls in Sweden recently. This is the real “war against women” being waged across the western world, but, like so much of the left, a pampered and privileged sisterhood would rather fight pseudo-battles over long vanquished enemies.
Those lovely pink boas have no place in the world of our enemies. Like much of the Left, Code Pink derives great satisfaction from their juvenile actions while simultaneously counting on losing the overall war (against the military) which means our military will successfully defend their right to flamboyantly protest.
And in the meantime, women who live under the restrictions of nutball Islamo-fascists count on our troops to rescue them from the non-pink hell they live in every day.
You may think this is bizarre, but don't forget that the Code Pink protesters aren't feminists. They are Leftists who are women. And that explains how they can betray women overseas in order to carry out their loud theater of caring that bolsters their own self esteem but does little else of practical value to help women.
