Наиболее распространенные на Западе стереотипы о мусульманских странах касаются мусульманских женщин: с наивным взором, завуалированные и покорные, экзотически тихие, хрупкие обитатели воображаемых гаремов, запертые в рамках жестких гендерных ролей.

That crossroads exposed a deep cleavage between the young, self-confident Israeli-born generals, who were spiteful of the older generation’s “submissive” attitude, and the Diaspora-born politicians who, haunted by Holocaust memories and existentially fearful of international isolation, resisted making a break with the old politics of diplomatic Zionism.
