This was the daily comic for the comic strip Bizarro yesterday. Actually, it isn't all that funny, but coincidentally was a thought we all had when we were over in Bahrain and seeing all of the women in their abaya (robe) and niqab (head scarf).
From the Author Salmon Rushdie:
Look at the places where Islamic radicalism has taken root. They are all
characterized by the oppression of women. Muslim women know very well the
problems of Muslim culture. They're at the sharp end of it. And I've often
believed that when the change comes, it will come from there.
