Dean Obeidallah: Muslim Nations Need to Ease Up on Women

Some Muslim countries need to loosen up their strict laws that discriminate against women, comedian, former lawyer and Daily Beast columnist Dean Obeidallah says.

"There is nothing in the Quran that either bans women from driving or mandates they completely cover up," Obeidallah said Thursday on "The Steve Malzberg Show" on Newsmax TV.

"So that's about oppression of women by certain men who want to do that."
