“Trafficking and Prostitution of Palestinian Women”

http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/meast/12/11/female.trafficking/index.html?iref=allsearch

This article reminded me of my Child Brides article that I discussed. It is also about mistreatment of women, and the horrors happening elsewhere in the world. This article focuses specifically however on trafficking and prostitution of Palestinian Women. The stories of certain women discussed in this article are really awful, but there individual stories help one visualize the horrors of this issue as a whole. It’s good that there are finally reports coming out about the awful things happening elsewhere in the world. Even articles such as this are good, because though painful to read, they spread awareness. And making people aware of such an ugly practice such as trafficking is the first step to rallying people to change the current situation.
