Dear Taha Actually ustaz Mahmoud's position was clear even to less trained academics as can be shown in the following excerpt from a research paper by Christine Mason BA (Hons), LLB. In a paper titled "Exorcising Excision: Medico-Legal Issues Arising From Male and Female Genital Surgery in Australia" Christine wrote that: ((Female genital surgery has been banned by certain regimes, and therefore is interpreted as part of repressive imperialism. British colonial rule in the Sudan, for example, enacted ineffective prohibition of all forms of female genital surgery in 1946. The result was not only anticolonial rumblings under the leadership of Mahmoud Mohammed Taha but an increased urgency and reduced age for the infibulation of girls. Some of these feelings persist in Australia; an attitude of "'we' will 'civilise' you because we know and live the truth". Thus the Ecumenical Migration Centre argued that legislation was not appropriate for addressing the dilemma of female genital surgery in Australia, since it makes "affected women feel rejected and self-conscious - as if they had a disease")) Source: http://www.cirp.org/library/legal/mason1/#n43
It's a known fact that even after the enactment of FGM laws this cusom still prevails up to our current time. In "December 1998 a demographic health report on female genital mutilations revealed that 92.8 per cent of sudanese women had undergone the practice" according to another internet source http://www.asylumlaw.org/docs/sudan/ind99b_sudan_ca.htm
As you said the facts are out there for those who want to seek them, but of course those who want to make a living out of skewing them will not bow so easily and admit their mistakes.
