German Government Protection of Kurdish Women :: essays research papers

Tearing Down the New Berlin Wall Through prohibited modern times, Islam has received the rap for other Sects practices and ideas. In the article When Rapists Walk Free, Mukhtaran Bibi received a raping because of a small town dispute. Because Bibi lives in Pakistan, Nicholas Kristoff, the articles precedent, was led to believe that Hatuns village was Muslim although in the second denounce of the article, He clearly writes that she lives in the Punjab area of Pakistan. The Punjab region hosts a number of religions aside from Islam. So, by reading the sentence that Bibi received, I clearly know that her village is not Muslim, because nowhere in Islam it says to gang rape a girl because of a village dispute. The New Berlin Wall, by Peter Schneider, does the same mistake in confusing another religion with Islam. Hatun Surucu was murdered by her 3 brothers because she started to live like a German. Because this happened in Turkey, the author assumed they were Muslim. Although in the f irst sentence of the second paragraph, Schneider informed the reader that Surucus family was Kurdish. Kurdism is a far branch of Islam that practices many different actions than Muslims and is not to be confused with Islam. So, in response to the prompt, I believe that no, the German government should not interfere with the status of women in their Muslim communities, but they should act out and address the status of women in Germanys Kurdish communities. The reasons why I believe Germany should address the status of Kurdish women is because the German Kurds are now liveliness in a different nation than their own and if they cant adjust, they should get penalized for it. Also, the government should push nationwide freedom and if Germany doesnt feel that the Kurdish women in their country are getting the liberty they deserve, it is their duty as a nation to change that.When an immigrant comes into a country and decides to keep his past culture with him, combat and deaths are the end result as shown with the Hatun Surucu case. Her brothers kept their Kurdish practices of honor deaths and ended up killing their sister. An example ritual is Generally choosing the youngest to carry out such murders. If the Surucu family adapted their Kurdish traditions and accepted Hatun as becoming German, she might not have been brutally murdered. Also, the reason the Surucus immigrated was to find a better life.
