The woman attacked by the military in the recent protests has declined to come forward, so for now she is only known as "blue bra girl." But her mistreatment seems to be a galvanizing force. Thousands of people joined the march through Cairo on Tuesday, many of them taking to the streets for the first time in outrage. Organizers of the march used the hashtag #BlueBra on Twitter to encourage people to join them.
Bloggers and tweeters offered negative comments on the blue bra girl -- criticizing her for being out in public protesting in the first place and accusing her of being provocative for not wearing more clothes under her abaya.
This from the religion that some on here so fervently defend. This from the religion that some on here so fervently dredge up the Crusades to use as a comparrison. This young woman beaten within an inch of her life and then criticized for not wearing more clothes! Honestly, folks. This is happening in the 21st Century, not the 11th Century. And you think that you will not be considered an 'infidel' right along with everyone else who doesn't embrace this brutal way of life. Honestly, it isn't a religion. It's just a hateful and brutal way of life. When will you wake up!
