There is nothing modest at all about wearing a hijab in a western nation. She might as well be wearing a giant bling cross if she was a christian. A hijab says one of two things, I am a slave to my husband, or I have no respect for your culture.
Dont you want to answer my questions on page two?
What, to you, would be the difference between criticism of and hate-speech against Islam? Examples?
Something to ponder…Can a Muslim be a real American?
In light of the murders at Ft. Hood by a Muslim Officer (who had sworn to defend the people, our Constitution and the United States ) this article becomes more timely and real than ever;
Can a good Muslim be a good American?
I sent that question to a friend who worked in Saudi Arabia for 20 years. The following is his reply:
Theologically – no. Because his allegiance is to Allah, the moon god of Arabia
Religiously – no. Because no other religion is accepted by his Allah except Islam.
Scripturally – no. Because his allegiance is to the five pillars of Islam and the Quran (Koran).
Geographically – no. Because his allegiance is to Mecca , to which he turns in prayer five times a day.
Socially – no. Because his allegiance to Islam forbids him to make friends with Christians or Jews.
Politically – no. Because he must submit to the mullah (spiritual leaders), who teach annihilation of Israel and Destruction of America, the great Satan.
Domestically – no. Because he is instructed to marry four women and beat and scourge his wife when she disobeys him.
Intellectually – no. Because he cannot accept the American Constitution since it is based on Biblical principles and he believes the Bible to be corrupt.
Philosophically – no. Because Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran do not allow freedom of religion and expression. Democracy and Islam cannot co-exist. Every Muslim government is either dictatorial or autocratic.
Spiritually – no. Because when we declare “one nation under God,” the Christian’s God is loving and kind, while Allah is NEVER referred to as heavenly father, nor is he ever called love in The Quran’s 99 excellent names.
Therefore after much study and deliberation….perhaps we should be very suspicious of ALL MUSLIMS in this country. They obviously cannot be both “good” Muslims and good Americans.
What percentage of the Religion as a whole might this be?
Read question number 2, that should explain everything about islam.

A muslim women can wear what she wants living in the West.Wether she wears a mini-skirt or a hijab that's totally up to her.
Who are you to criticize what she wears?
Don't forget it her bloody choice! No one is forcing her to.
That is not true. A muslim woman living in the West can wear what her HUSBAND says she can wear. Do you think that because a muslim couple is living in the West----taking advantage of our dirty capatilistic ways----that the muslim wife is set free to have the time of her life? Not even.

If she can't she can divorce. Don't think that Muslim women can't westernize.
If Islam was so oppressive, no one would be Muslim.
You like to think you have a comeback, but it isn't that easy. Sure, she could petition the courts for a divorce, but who is going to stop her family members---uncles, cousins, father, grandfather, or husband from murdering her for disgrace? They would cross an ocean to restore family honor after a woman, gasp, does such a thing as escapes a controlling husband.
End of report.

To group all Muslims into the same pot with extremists is the primary goal of propaganda.
This claim that Muslim women wear the oppressive types of dress voluntarily is a lie.
Yeah, we have had this conversation many times, and each time I have proved your claims that women want to wear burqas to be the patently false claim that it is.
