With Meena has harsh words for his country:

نجلاء الإمام المحامية و رئيسة جمعية لحقوق الإنسان تدعو الشباب العربي للتحرش بالإسرائيليات و اغتصابهم كنوع من المقاومة و بعد كده بنتسائل ليه الغرب بيتهمنا بالتخلف و الإرهاب أما تكون دي رئيسة جمعية لحقوق الإنسان هيفتكروا المواطن العادي شكله عامل ازاي؟؟

Nagla Al Imam, a lawyer and head of a human rights organization, invited Arab youth to sexually harass and rape Israeli women as a form of resistance … and then we wonder why the West accuses us of backwardness and terrorism … if this is how the head of an NGO thinks, then what would an average citizen be like?

    Jack, this is serious stuff. I don’t have connections in Egypt as to what is going on. But I look forward to hearing more.

    Why on earth would someone in this position say something like this?

    Something isn’t right for this to take a backwards step like this. Do you know the background to this?

    This isn’t a one off for Ms. Al-Imam — she also turned viciously on the victim in Egypt’s first successful sexual assault case, because she is allegedly (incorrectly, not that it matters) Israeli.

    Julie: I don’t know the background to this at all actually; all I know is she has done this before and will more than likely do it again. Interestingly enough Egypt, as a government, does not foster this type of behavior (overall that is) as it is a secular government that is an ally with Israel. Not that the Egyptian government is good, however, it’s essentially a brutal military dictatorship; but that is all I know about the background to this.
