Yes, wife-beating happens all over the world. The difference is that it's a crime in all civilised countries. Telling people domestic violence and mutilation of children are their religious duty is evil. There's no other word for it.
Holland used to be proud of its tolerance. Now it tolerates imams preaching not to tolerate gay men and Jews. On the other hand, several Dutch journalists were recently censored or even suspended for criticising islamic fundamentalism. Never criticise the Arabs, we'd have no petrol without them, and we all love our cars more than human rights.
