Re: Why Jack Straw wants Muslim women to remove the veil
Then wearing a Bhindi is brave, looking Chinese is brave, looking black is brave, not wearing Niqab in Saudi Arabia is brave etc etc. If this is the definition of bravery, then we can all claim to be brave. Also there are places in the world where full face covering is the norm in modern day and age, but it's not in the UK.

He has every right to express his feelings to people. If a man from the Association for Nudists turns up, does he have to interview him if it makes him uncomfortable?

" I don't believe there's been a study of veiling and education"
There was never a need. Women in veils are more diciplined, polite and achieve better grades.

So no study has been done, but according to you veiled women achieve better grades. Statements without proof, and most people would laugh at it. Gitmo officials would be proud of such poor reasoning and lack of evidence. I doubt even most schools permit veiling for school uniform.

Women that choose to wear full veil know this perfectly well.
They are not the ones who are complaining about the attitudes of kuffar. Nor do they mind being excluded.

Let's say you are their spokesman. Let's say also they don't mind being excluded from society. Fine then. How can anyone claim they're being discriminated against when they exclude themselves from society?

You fail to grasp simple principles and this makes your reasoning poor.
