Canadian Muslim group calls for burqa ban

:k: The OIC has its own declaration and the key difference between it and the UNDHR–which the rest of the world adheres to without a separate declaration of their own–is that women are not equal to men under the OIC declaration. As we know, the OIC was created by Islamist Saudi Arabia to serve its propaganda needs.

Show me one article from an Islamist magazine or newspaper in which Islamist persecution of non-Muslims is denounced. I’ll make it easy for you: you can use any Islamist newspaper or magazine in the world.

I have never heard a single Muslim denounce the persecution of minorities if the persecutor is a Muslim. Surely many Muslims, perhaps even a majority, oppose such things but they are passive. The loud voices–the Islamist voices–are silent on persecution. Can you please detail the marches Jamaat Islami has done to oppose persecution of minorities in Pakistan (which is primarily the result of several governments trying to appease them)?

Regarding the OP, too much time is spent on hijab and burqas. Sure, they are symbols of the subjugation of women, which is why Islamists obsess so much over enforcing them despite their being minor things in the grand scheme of things (also note that Islamists never call for men to cover their heads or were niqabs). Still, it is just that, a symbol. Why spend so much time attacking a symbol? The key is the attack the underlying ideology: Islamism.

Women should have a right to wear miniskirts if they wish or burqas if they wish, with some exceptions for public safety purposes (i.e. you should have to reveal your face in driver’s license photos).
