If Islam were not a Third-World religion, it would be recognized immediately and universally in the West as a form of expansionist totalitarianism incompatible with freedom.
If clitoridectomy, female circumcision, were not performed by Third-Worlders, but, say, white Mormons, it would have been outlawed, like Mormon polygamy, a long time ago.
It's one thing to keep your nose out of other people's business when they are in their own lands, but when they come here, to our country, to America, then what they do becomes our business.
One of the fatal weaknesses of the liberal mind is that it cannot say "our" country or people or culture, for fear of excluding someone not yet arrived or just arrived, and making them Other, no matter how objectively alien they may be.

I guess some would even say that outlawing Mormon polygamy, clitoridectomy, etc would drive these things underground ... reminds me to wonder whether a Freudian has discuss'd female circumcision in re "vaginal" "orgasm."
