“FGM.” It’s much less horror-inducing to use the acronym when discussing the barbaric Islamic rite than to actually use the technical name for the practice itself: female genital mutilation.
 
The very thought of FGM is so far outside the experience of most contemporary Americans it’s practically inconceivable. But this disgusting procedure is suddenly in the news after the arrests here in Michigan’s Detroit metro area of Jumana Nagarwala, M.D., and now another doctor and his wife ~ 2nd doctor, wife arrested in genital mutilation case.
 
Ayaan Hirsi Ali, herself a victim of FGM, is an outspoken critic of this dehumanizing practice and an advocate for other victims. She spoke with Tucker Carlson (Fox News) a couple days ago, explaining that hundreds of thousands of young girls in the the U.S. either have been, or are in danger of mutilation, because we’re all so shackled by political correctness. Who are we to judge other cultural practices right? No matter how vile!

FGM removes some or all of external female genitalia. There is no medical benefit to the procedure, which causes severe pain and serious health problems. It usually occurs in Africa, Asia and the Middle East. The World Health Organization calls FGM “a violation of the human rights of girls and women.” The organization notes that over 200 million women and girls currently living have undergone the procedure.

Islamists only seek a Sharia-compliant world, Ali said, in the wake of Wednesday’s attack in London, a city with progressive leadership, “and whoever is in their way is their enemy.”
 
She said anyone who does not understand that should not be legislating policy.
