Muslim woman smacks male Imam on TV

As well she should.  First, the video:

Then, a bit of transcript, so all may see what an arrogant prick Hani Al-Siba’i truly is:

Al-Siba’i: “What kind of behavior is this?!”

Karaki: “Please don’t get all worked up. We respect you and know you want to give a complete answer. Unfortunately, we have limited time –”

Al-Sibai: “I agreed with Mr. Ibrahim Harbi –”

Karaki: “Fine, go on. They’ve given us more time.”

Al-Siba’i: “I agreed with him that you wouldn’t cut me off.”

Karaki: “Enough with that, go on –”

Al-Siba’i: “You think you’re so high and mighty?!”

Karaki: “Go on, but do not call me names.”

Al-Siba’i: “I am serving the idea in which I believe.”

Karaki: “In this studio, I run the show. For your own benefit, I’m telling you that we are running out of time. If you are going to elaborate so much, we won’t have time for other questions. If we start discussing history, we won’t have enough time for our topic. Now, it’s up to you. If we have time, you will answer all the questions, but I will be the one to decide.”

Al-Siba’i: “You can decide as much as you like, but I will do whatever I want.”

Karaki: “Okay, let us hear your answer. Let’s get back to the topic rather than waste time arguing.”

Al-Siba’i: “Are you done? Shut up so I can talk. I am talking so that people can understand – ”

Karaki: “How can a respected sheikh like yourself tell a TV host to shut up?!”

Al-Siba’i: “I am respected whether you like it or not –”

Karaki: “Enough. Let’s wrap this up.”

Al-Siba’i: “It’s beneath me to be interviewed by you. You are a woman who – ”

Karaki: “Just one second. Either there is mutual respect, or the conversation is over.”

Mutual respect — of women — by a Muslim male and specifically an Imam?

Perish the thought.
