آية الله قاسم رجل إصلاح و سلام( إستقامة، ثبات، سلمية) - قاسم، عيسى احمد - الصفحة ١٥٥

are considered terrorists, advocates of sedition and conspirators in the eyes of the state media. This slander will continue as long as the demands for reform and rights continue. We reject the terrorism some parts of the Arab world have witnessed just like we reject any reprehensible doing. Who called for peacefulness as much as we did? Who called for restraint in face of the regimes violence more than we have done?

Even some of our dear people started to doubt us for how much we have stressed on nonviolence and to not respond to the harsh and unjust provocations of the regime?

All this, and we were accused of terrorism, violence and conspiracy. However, all this did not make us change our approach, and we did not react with anger. All this will not change our loyalty to this land and its people, it will not change our behaviour to another way.

Is defending ones honour( women )from attacks considered terrorism and violence?

Does being peaceful mean that you see your female family members being abused and smile for this aggression? Or does it mean to shake hands with the abuser and keep quiet when youre able to defend them from the attack?

Give me any divine law that says so. Give me a constitution or law, any human norms which acknowledge that. Let any senior official in the state, or any cleric in the world, come out and say that if you see anyone assaulting your women, you should salute and praise them, or you should keep quiet on his dirtiness and aggression, even though you could defend your women.

This is would not be said by a human. No one but a barbarian will be able to say such a thing.

What does a person do to push away the attack on his women?
