Holding Women Hostage

frumsatire.net has posted about men who refuse to give their wives a get.
I've been down that road, and I can tell you that it's terrifying, infuriating, and humiliating to be held hostage like that. Any man who can do such a thing to his wife and children deserves nothing but condemnation and humiliation in return.
On a positive note, Urban Kvetch writes that a recent Israeli court decision allows a husband who refuses to grant a get to be held civilly liable for his actions: http://estherkustanowitz.typepad.com/myurbankvetch2005/
