Rabia Kazan is a rebel without a hijab. As a young girl in a religious Muslim family in 1970s Turkey, she was forced to wear the head covering and got a beating from her mother if she removed it. In 1996, Rabia started her journalism career as a correspondent working for the Istanbul Documentary show on Flash TV. She then became a columnist for the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) affiliated with the Turkish newspaper Ortadoğu, where she worked for six years and conducted an interview with Mehmet Ali Ağca that rose her to fame. She also founded the news magazine Haber Revizyon in Istanbul. In 2007, she wrote a book, “Tahran Melekleri" (Angels of Tehran) about “temporary marriages” (mut'a or sigheh) that she called sanctioned prostitution, eliciting heavy criticism from some Muslims. Rabia moved to the US in 2010, worked for numerous human rights organizations and in 2012 removed her hijab for good. Perhaps inspired by the death threats received, in 2014 she launched a global campaign "This Is Not My Allah" against Islamic Terrorism with French political analyst Alain Wagner (President of ICLA), in New York City [https://libertiesalliance.org/2014/10/05/turkish-journalist-rabia-kazan-launches-allah-global-campaign-extremism/]. The aim of the campaign is to encourage Muslims to speak out against Islamic extremism. The launch took place at the New York Hilton after the Harvard Club in New York cancelled it one week prior to launch [https://religionnews.com/2014/10/08/harvard-club-new-york-cancels-allah-icla-press-conference-rabia-kazan-october-15th-new-venue-hilton-times-square/]. Today, she is the President of the Middle East Women’s Coalition, an organization she founded in 2016, where she continues her work on behalf of women's rights in Islamic countries and around the world and to vigorously promote Secularism in Islam to prevent child marriages and the human trafficking of women as a continuation of the work which she started in Italy almost 20 years ago. Rabia has been a frequent guest of Eli Gold in Washington DC, where they hosted several briefings in the Capitol and elsewhere on Capitol Hill.

Beard Blather 192: "Confronting Reality." Time to face reality. We are not heading for war. We are in one. We did not choose it, we did not want it, it does not make us happy. Alas, people forget that, in war, the enemy has a vote. And voted they have. 4-0 Russia, Iran, China and North Korea have decided to wage war on the West. We may discuss whether Biden's extreme weakness had something to do with this, but the bottom line is it's here. And appeasing or sending "humanitarian aid" to reinforce the forces of terror is not a viable strategy. Time to face reality. Time to realize that, wanted or not, we are in the fight of our lives. It is Hamas, or civilization. Hizbollah, or civilization. Houthis, or civilization. Iran, or civilization. And that goes for the Russian Orc in Ukraine, too. Wake up, folks, smell the coffee. Thomas Wictor and Saul Montes-Bradley discuss whatever comes to their minds. What can we say, this is a LIVE Blather, and we'll have to wait until it's done to tell you what it is all about.
