That’s the description by one Muslim cleric of women who appear in public without a veil. Let’s make perfectly clear: one Muslim cleric. But also a quite senior one. He is, literally, arguing that women who are gang-raped are asking for it:
If you take out uncovered meat and place it outside on the street, or in the garden or in the park, or in the backyard without a cover, and the cats come and eat it . . . whose fault is it - the cats’ or the uncovered meat? The uncovered meat is the problem.
The article says a “large number” of Muslims condemned the remark (though it doesn’t quote any). Let’s hope so.

women = uncovered meat
moslem men = cats
We all know cats cannot be expected to control themselves, may need to be put to sleep....
Human beings, OTOH,have self control.
