A female television hostess in Kuwait was fired for wearing clothing deemed inappropriate during Ramadan.
The woman was co-hosting a game show called “The Winning Touch,” but was fired just minutes before it was to go live because the station received angry complaints about her dress.
One has to wonder: This is the religion the left and feminists of the West choose to stand by and defend?

Islam is about the most misogynistic ideology n the face of the earth.
NDTV has more:
A television presenter in Kuwait was reportedly fired on air, minutes before the live show she was hosting was to end. According to some reports, Amal Al Awadhi may have been let go after state-run Kuwait Television (KTV1) received angry complaints over the clothes she was wearing onair. Ms Al Awadhi took to social media to ask Kuwait’s Ministry of Information for a clarification over what has officially been termed a “suspension”.
Ms Al Awadhi was co-hosting a popular game show called “The Winning Touch” during the holy month of Ramadan. She typically posts multiple pictures of her outfits and behind-the-scenes photos from the set of the daily show on her official Instagram account. The last few photos, from the day she was reportedly fired, feature her in a calf-length white dress. Social media users speculated the dress may have been the cause of her suspension. It was reportedly deemed “inappropriate” for Ramadan by some viewers, reported local media.
Quoting sources, Kuwait’s Arab Times reported the TV presenter had been suspended after repeated warnings. “She had provoked negative reactions during the last few episodes of the show, which led the management of KTV channel to suspend her from the show,” reported Arab Times.
According to StepFeed, Ms Al Awadhi took to Snapchat soon after and said: “I heard someone saying, ‘Take Amal Al Awadhi off air now, or I’ll shut down the channel.'”
“Because my show was airing during Ramadan… I took care of what I wore and how I spoke,” she added.
On Instagram, Ms Al Awadhi wrote she hoped Kuwait’s Ministry of Information would clarify exactly why she was suspended and said she respected the modest dress code imposed on all TV presenters on state TV.
On Ms Al Awadhi’s Instagram page, comments ranged from outrage at her suspension to schadenfreude.
“It’s TV, it’s entertainment… If they wanted you to dress up differently, why did they not say that before the program started, before you went live?” wondered one person.
“You got fired for that outfit? Are you kidding me? That’s disgraceful. This is 2018 and men who are still treating women like this need to get a grip on reality. I’m really sorry this happened to you and I hope you are fighting this! And for the record, you look gorgeous,” commented another. …
Basima Al-Shammar, a television news anchor in Kuwait was suspended last month after she called a male colleague “handsome” on air. According to media reports, her casual comment was interpreted as “flirtatious” by some. The journalist, however, defended her remark as “routine” and says the furore over it left her confused.

Agree. And the first Muslim democrat president imported 200,000 yearly legal and illegal muslims and
deported christians back to ISIS to be slaughtered after they tried to make it to America http://tinyurl.com/mtc3xch
And those who dared to help were threatened to shut up and MSM would not cover it !

Exactly, Obama is a Muslim, he loathes Christians, but especially Jews. I’m sure Allah will be pleased that he was and remains culpable for the mass-murders of the Infidels. The Leftist imbeciles remain steadfast and servile when it comes to this piece of excrement. The man, hell, the entirety of the so-called progressives/Democrats make me want to upchuck.

Birds of a feather, taqiyya and all. The leftists drone on about liberty and rights just like the Muslims drone on about Islam being about peace. The reality is that both are just sneaky tyrants, wolves in sheeps clothing…

Islam subjugates everything it comes in contact with. Both Muslim Republicans and Muslim Democrats have corrupted and conquored both parties making them pawns of the muslim invasion.
President Trump is surrounded by traitors on both sides of the aisle. Sooner the hangings for high treason begin, the sooner we can have this country back, and a reasonable, secure immigration policy.

Nowhere in the Quran/Hadiths does it say women have a right to dress as they wish. They are supposed to be covered up all the time lest they incite Muslim men to rape them.
So of course when some Muslims try to be more liberal and Westernized, they’re confronted with the extreme piety of their fellow Muslims who are more than happy to point out that they’re being ‘unIslamic’ which basically puts their life in danger.
Thus Muslims have only two options, either conform to the dictates of this 7th century death cult or reject it altogether. The same applies for us in the West. Either we submit to the Islamic fascists or we reject them completely. There will never be a reformed or moderate Islam, just like there never could be a moderate Nazism. You either submit or eliminate this death cult.
Western civilization is superior, our views should conquer the Islamic world, rather than allow Islam to conquer us. This is a war of ideas, a war of a way of life. We can never let the low IQ slaves of the most inhumane, genocidal, hateful ideology on the Earth defeat us.

Was about to up vote you until I read the last paragraph “Western civilization is superior…”.
This statement always causes me consternation. The USA killed 652,000 babies in 2014. Try repeating that number a few times or maybe when you next go to a sporting contest, wonder how many times the stadium could be filled with 652 thousand people.Six hundred and fifty two thousand babies killed annually in the US alone..
Some could say that nations that rip babies apart babies in the womb and crush their skulls, are the most hateful ideologies on earth. Just saying.
That having been said, I have read the Koran and it is the most hate filled book I have ever read. Islam is an abomination.
Jesus is the Saviour of the world.

Do see your point. Western culture does have its flaws, especially if the culture promotes the slaughter of unborn babies, and euthanizes those whom the medical profession deems “hopeless”, and refuse to try alternatives to restore them.

Wow we sure had fun at that Rave last month. I’m popping out to the abortion shop so do you need any groceries while I am out?
They euthanizes those who are inconvenient. The Pill and condoms are the best alternative.
Pregnancy takes two genders – male and female. Excluding males is clear discrimination. For every abortion on demand being done, there must be the responsible vasectomy being conducted on the adjoining table, in full view of each other. Selfie sticks required.

I miss your point. What is your position on abortion and euthanasia? In plain English, is it all right to kill unborn babies and to euthanize adults, or are they both forms of murder? What is your short answer?

Abortion on demand is WRONG and would drop drastically if the responsible male was personally / physically involved. The only reason I would possibly condone an abortion is for extreme risk to the mother. If a guy risks getting his nuts disconnected he would be a little more concerned about using birth control.
Euthanasia is wrong. “Suicide” is a personal choice. My life belongs to me. My Will forbids any unusual or extended life support and I have instructed my partner to acquire a drug that I can self administer if I get to the point I can’t take care of myself. I refuse to be a burden on others.

Yes, I think contraception is an acceptable alternative compared to abortion, which I am very strongly against. Like it or not, many younger people do have relations quite frequently.

I think I like the idea to give the woman who kills her baby a hysterectomy and the male a vasectomy. Fair enough.That would slow down the abortion mill.

So, what is your point. Do you think I have had my head under a rock and do not know that Islam is violent, that a Christian is killed every 5 minutes: that Islam is responsible for the death of at least 270 million people. I do know this. My point was about extolling our civilisation as just fabulous. Riddle me this: If we are such a wonderful civilisation how come there have been more baby abortions done than Big Macs sold. WE have drifted far from God as a society. Islam (unbeknowns to most of the Muslims) is a Satanic cult. How come we simply accept sodomic marriage and teaching children that they can be any gender they choose. I’m sorry, but Western civilisation is ugly, hedonistic and heading towards hell in hand basket.
It’s over mate. Islam is simply filling the void that was created when the west declared God dead.The west opened itself up to the devil and hey presto….Islam arrived.

Muslim “clothing” and “fashion” is appropriate only 1400 years ago, it is ridiculous that they still desperately try to cling to aspects of their heavily outdated past.

Well, why doesn’t the presenter offer to come back on air wearing a goat costume. Perhaps that will appease the angry mobs who were soo offended by her dress.

This illustrates how Muslims live in a constant prison, the guards are other Muslims and there is always somebody on the lookout to correct or punish you for infringements however minor. It is much like Medieval Europe where the same kind of bigotry operated. What mean spirited, petty minded, holier than thou people they are. And this is claimed to be the answer for all mankind!!! (and womankind especially) Do I hear any Western feminists giving her support, no I though not.

Their sham organization is too busy supporting the likes of Linda Sarsour, and empty headed activities like ” Hijab Day “, that is when they aren’t wearing their pink pussy hats. Shame on the lot of them, and on anyone foolish enough to support them either directly or by identifying as a feminist ( eh! Trudeau )( what a shmuck ).
Like ” rabies in a dog “, applies to muslims and liberals alike. Western feminists left all those brave woman who took off their head coverings in protest of being dictated to by a patriarchal band of demented thugs, just hanging, without one word of support – what hypocrites!!

But medieval Europe was never stoning adulterous women to death, pretty much because of the actions of one man in denouncing such barbarity.

Kuwait is supposed to be one of the more “liberal” and “modern” Islamic sh*tholes. Just goes to show they’re all primitive and incompatible with modern values.

In their backward belief system, a woman is worth half a man. Islam has provided no benefit to humankind since the

I saw somewhere the national dress costumes of women before the takeover of the koranderthals. They had beautiful, colorful clothing. Women in Iran under the Shah of Iran wore Western type clothing, and now they wear a cloth version of a garbage bag. And yet FEMINISTS seem to defend this barbaric demand that women not display their beauty, submit to being second class citizens, or better yet – PROPERTY. Yes, feminists are stupid to support this abject denial of women’s right to be who they want to be.
I think koranderthals should have the same rights that they give Christians in their Islam-controlled countries, which is basically no rights at all, other than the right to pay taxes for the “right” to live. I don’t have Islamophobia, I have Islamorealism.

I found the website that had actual pictures from a Iranian magazine about women in the 1970s. Were they beautiful or what?

Never meant to imply they were anything else. But the fact is that in Iran in the 1970s, women did wear other than bag rags as they do today
