As several on this forum are Dutch, I wonder if you can explain to me the reasons the government of Holland is banning the burqa, and what you think about it.
First of all Cleg, I'm not Dutch, I'm Belgian, BIG differce <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
As for me, banning the burqa is stupid. It's not cause we western people are dressed like this or that, that we have to decide what others have to wear. I agree that it's not fair that if you go to an Islamitic land, you do have to dress like they, when you enter a mosque. Women have to cover their heads and shoulders and arms, man don't need to do anything. But if they are like that, do we have to imitate them? I'm not bothered by someone in a burqa, not that I have met someone in burqa before, but in Belgium we have also different comunities, Siks (fantatic hindoes) etc... Banning their way of clothing will only make more martyrs for them.
