Dutch government backs burqa ban
Not ALL religions are that bad. Islam seems to have some scriptures (if that's the right word) where people are induced to kill infidels in order to benefit in the afterlife. I don't know that Christianity or Judaism or any other mainstream religion praises violence done in this life in return for benefits in the afterlife, regardless of who the victims of the violence might be. The extremist Islamics use those scriptures to foment killing and thus keep the cycle of violence going.
Just look how crazy Iraq has become. Two Islamic sects with minor religious differences just flat out wasting each other left and right, while the third, more civilized sect (the Kurds) just wants to be left alone. Only in retrospect can we see that it was Saddam's brutality that kept all that more or less in check. But brutality isn't really 'the American way', so how the hell are we supposed to help? Give them a new strongman to dictate their lives so they don't kill each other? Maybe this will provide the American people a valuable lesson: don't create a problem until you FIRST figure out how you're going to solve it. And if it's not a problem we CAN solve, best not to get involved at all.

If the Islamic religion demands total theocracy, then there is no denying that Saddam was a better choice as the leader of Iraq. This guy presented a much smaller threat to us than al quada, or similar terrorists, - and we upset the apple cart by overthrowing him.
The religious right gravitates toward theocracy - they feel that they have more in common with Islam than, god forbid, atheism. Even though Saddam was/is most certainly not an atheist, many in the Christian right prefer working with the Islamic way of thinking as opposed to a more secular tyrant.
If we had leaders with balls, theyâ??d just come out and tell the truth about Islam. They do not, therefore we must question if they even know anything at all.
Of course, it's all about money in the end. The more craziness that is happening, the more the rich get richer and you know the rest.

I can't help but wonder, what exactly is the danger in women wearin a headdress? If the authorities are looking for Muslim extremists, the burqa obviously isn't going to hide the fact they're muslim.

If if walked into a bank, or store, with an executionerâ??s hood on, I'd be thrown out - or worse. This shit doesn't fly in a civilized society. If they want to cover their face at home, by all means they are welcome to do it. I admit that most of them look much better with the burka hiding their features, but it's too dangerous to allow it.

You wouldn't really have a valid cultural, religious, or other reason to be wearing an executioners hood though. I still don't see the "danger".

You think most muslim women are ugly? Such classy generalizations.

The danger of wearing a face covering, other than in very cold conditions, is that anybody could be hiding under it. It's a mind-fuck, and I think that it's about time we told them where to stick it.
The whole purpose of this religion, like others, is to take over the world. They are very serious, though, and may very well do it if we don't wake up.
P.S. If you saw as many as I do, you'd agree that they are ugly. It's probably due to excessive inbreeding.

Hey Breuk, you better watch out. Not so much for these comments but for the fact that you're posting porn. I mean seriously man, what were you thinking? That woman in the blue burqah's ankle is showing. If this were the hills of Eastern Afghanistan/Western Pakistan they'd be stoning you by now. And I don't mean in a good way.

I never preferred the hash from those countries, anyway. ;)
Nepal and Tibet have Hinduism and Buddhism. Both have better hash.
