The British government is funding evening classes to help Muslim women learn how to “control their men — and stop them becoming suicide bombers.”
Seriously. You couldn’t make this stuff up.
TAXPAYERS are to fund evening classes to show Muslim woman how to control their men – and stop them becoming suicide bombers.
Communities Secretary Ruth Kelly will this week stump up £650,000 on a string of courses across Britain.
They aim to teach the women “confidence building, communication skills, negotiation and mediation”.
Ms Kelly hopes the women will then be able to persuade husbands, brothers and sons not to be tempted to become Islamic terrorists.
She said: “The vast majority of UK Muslims condemn violent extremism – as I do. But Muslim women carry more weight than me where it counts.”
The women will be taught leadership skills by local business chiefs.
