Muslim Husband Chops Off Wife's Fingers Because She Won't Drop Out of College

From PJ Media, by Reporter Tom Knighton, on 12 July 2017.

Here is the lede:

A woman is recovering after having her fingers chopped off by her husband in Bangladesh, a majority Muslim nation.  One of the husband's relatives then threw her fingers in the trash so they couldn't be reattached by surgeons.

The Husband, Mr Islam, is a migrant worker in the United Arab Emirates, was on home leave.

The Reporter, Mr Knighton, turned into an OpEd writer with this paragraph:

Meanwhile, progressive "feminists" in the United States -- led by their Jew-hating, Sharia-supporting, Saudi Arabia-shilling, jihad-declaring hero Linda Sarsour -- claim that the United States under Trump is becoming just like the totalitarian society depicted in The Handmaid's Tale because Trump doesn't think taxpayers should be forced to pay for their abortions.

I think that nails it, except for the part where Ms Sarsour says she is against assimilation.  What does she have in mind?

Hat tip to the InstaPundit.
