#1 Muslim religious leaders have warned that a law banning face-covering attire in the streets could stigmatize Muslims and drive some to extremism.

The burqa and full face niqab stigmatize muslim women. Remove the veils and she's just another women among many.

As for driving to extremism... The full-body covering of a burqa is a sign of extremism and is an islamist tool. It is an indicator of slavery, abuse and fear. Authorities might consider following a burqa home and flush out the islamist nest.

The ban would be a sign of freedom. it lifts "constraints".

As usual, Moussaoui and others like him, have it ass-backward.

#2 To Swanimote:
Y not your mother run naked on the streets. Dats gonna lift a lot of constraints. Ask your ancestors y they used to cover themselves. Surely they will spank you for even asking that question. Grow up. Freedom of expression means it is every right of an individual to do whatever they want. It is not for a government to decide whether its people should fully cover their body.

#5 No Dabeer, your freedom of expression doesn't include calling for my enslavement or death. It will be answered in kind. What you are seeing now is the name calling before the fight begins.

a law banning face-covering attire

Join the modern world and layer on the makeup. Nobody will recognize you. Really. Oh, and don't forget tank tops.

O ignorant Dabeer! Freedom of expression means that one can say the words one pleases, accepting that others might very strongly disagree, and understanding the risk that if the words one says are annoying enough, physical harm might ensue. Freedom of expression does not mean one may break the laws of the country in which one finds oneself, no matter the customs back home.

No doubt in your studies you've read the ancient expression, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do."

In the case of the ban on the burqa and the niqab, Europeans have learnt the hard way that often enough the person underneath is not a shy and retiring female hiding her beauty from covetous male eyes, but a covetous male seeking the cover of anonymity to steal from shops and escape from the police. Did not Osama bin Laden do the very same when he and his henchmen ran away from Tora Bora pursued by the Americans in 2002, and do not the Taliban do so even now, when the foreign soldiers surround the village they happen to be pillaging? Why then should the French allow cowards hiding under women's veils to pillage their country? Those who dislike it, after all, can come stay with your family in Karachi, where the men are like ravening beasts should they see even the suggestion of a female hair or cheek, so afraid their women will revolt they burn girls' schools to keep them from learning to read and think. And so the girls believe the Quran, Sunna and Hadith demand such walking purdah, instead of knowing your prophet wanted his women to dress modestly instead of like dancing girls.

#8 Freedom of expresskion? I know of Magrebi wiomen who wear burka for fear of agresssion. And I doubt thare Magrebi husbands and fathers who were told they would be considered apostates if they allowed their daughters/wives not to veil.

#9 Y not your mother run naked on the streets.

It really depends on whether she is hot or not, Dabeer.

I suspect the reason Muslim men insist on throwing tarps over their women is they fear that their women's mustaches are more luxurious than their own.

#10 IOn "LES FRANCAIS" [1990's "Last of the Mohicans" flick], ANSAMED > FRANCE: ONE OUT OF EVERY THREE MARRIAGES IS MIXED, MASS PHENOMENON [84,000 = 27% of all new Marriages 2009].

ARTIC > More and more Frenchies are choosing [secular?]CIVIL UNIONS, NOT MARRIAGE [IMO read, NOT CHURCH].

IFOP Research Institute > Back in 1984, over 50% of Frenchies did not want their children to marry a Person of ARAB ORIGIN - in 2009, the same is now down to 24%.
