Greater Inclusiveness of Minorities

No Gym For Dhimmis ====

Most of our civil rights legislation and judicial opinions have been
designed to encourage greater inclusiveness of minorities into the
mainstream. We have insisted on integrating buses, schools, the military,
jobs, housing - even private clubs. Any group that gets a government grant
has an obligation to eschew discrimination. So it is with particular interest
that we should look at Harvard's recent retrograde decision to set aside certain
gym hours for the exclusive benefit of Muslim women. Twice a week, for two
hours one morning and two hours one afternoon, all men must be excluded from
the gym so that female Muslim students will not be seen in what their religion
considers compromising positions or inappropriate dress.
