This one is horrifying and heartbreaking all at once and calls for more than one report here. A young Iranian mother of two has been left a paraplegic after Iranian police shot her inside her car because of a hijab rule violation. What kind of monsters would do such a thing? Answer: Iranian police in a regime under rule of Islamic Law.

- This proposed amendment to Iraq’s personal status law would permit Sunni and Shi’ite clerics to sign marriage contracts outside the official court system. Such an amendment, if passed, would open the door to underage and forced marriages, which are completely legal under sharia. To their credit, Iraqis are protesting the amendment, which has not yet passed.
