gender equality

Recently in UK for olympic games -Saudi Arabian sent their citizen to take part in
the olympic games and guess what?
All the participiant are male only.so I would like to protest agints this tyrannical
regime’s gross distortion of Islam as well as its flagrant violation of the Olympic
charter. This repressive desert kingdom will now be the only country that willhave
no female contingent at the Olympic games. Not only does this contravene
the egalitarian principles of authentic Islam, but it also flouts the stringent regulations
of the International Olympic Committee.

I would like to know as to what sort of help I can get to show the world that enough is
enough from this despot -rulers. They colse the Bristish Government mouth by giving
them bribery.

Here I got a chance and I don't want to waste it -Rizwana
