Islamists Slam Palestinian Lesbian Conference...

Think of all the places in the Middle East that could host a Palestinian conference.

The Saudis chaired a "peace" meeting between Hamas and Fatah. Dubai, the natural conference venue of the region would have been ideal. Even Iran, the Shi'ite homeland, would normally welcome Palestinian delegations.

But no. The attending will be Palestinian lesbians and the only country in the entire Middle East that respects the human rights of Lesbians is Israel.

So this year's Palestinian Lesbian Conference will be held in the "eeeevil Zionist Entity".

Of course this has upset Israel's resident Islamists as Ha'Eretz reports:

Islamic Movement condemns Palestinian lesbian conference - Haaretz - Israel News:

A conference of Palestinian lesbians, scheduled to be held in Haifa at the end of the month, has raised the ire of Israel's Islamic Movement leaders.

Last week, the movement's heads, MKs Ibrahim Sarsur and Abas Zkoor (United Arab List-Ta'al) published a statement calling on "all respectable people from all communities and streams to stand up against preaching sexual deviance among our women and girls."

The Haifa-based Asawat, a Palestinian gay women's organization, most of whose 85 members hail from Israel and the territories, has called the March 28 conference to mark its five-year anniversary.

The Islamic Movement statement also said, "We must not let this fatal cancer spread in our community."
