Women in the Islamic state

Women throughout the history of mankind have suffered gravely from injustices based on their gender. From slavery to genital mutilation, rape to murder for honor, their voices have been curtailed and they have often been used as property rather than a human being.
The Islamic state is no stranger to the harassment of women. It captures women specially the yazidi and Christian women and girls, it sells them into slave market to be used as sex slaves. The reports say women are stripped naked in open market and sold to the highest bidder, often sold to more than one man. Young girls specially between one and nine years of age fetch the highest prices. Recently nineteen women were executed for refusing to have sex with members of Isis. Middle East is a place where adultery leads to stoning, under Isis refusing to commit adultery leads to execution. Isis is against all human values. It does not respect the sanctity of human life. It does not respect the honor of women and instead treats them as sex slaves. Women are subjected to harshest of punishments. Rapes and pedophilia is rampant. Every single human right, every single moral value is destroyed in this barbaric regime of madness.
