Jammu and Kashmir: Women ordered to don burka

Sharia Alert from the Kashmir jihadists. From the PTI, with thanks to all who sent this in:

Jammu: In a move that will once again create a fear psychosis among womenfolk in Rajouri district, a Hizb-ul-Mujahideen area commander on Saturday threatened them to follow the Islamic dress code of wearing a burka and a veil while moving in public places and warned that they would be killed if they failed to comply, officials said.

They said a poster of ultra Alamgeer Hafiz Gazali had come up in Chokiya village of Darhal tehsil in this regard.

Giving them one week to comply, Gazali, said the throats of those defying the order would be slit. Women not wearing burkas were un-Islamic, he said in the poster.

Come now, this can't be right! After all, "there is no compulsion in religion", says the prophet of the Religion of Peace.

Surely we have misunderstood, as always. This story must be banned as a slander against Islam!

This article confirms why I believe Islam is nothing but oppression for women.

I'm wondering if we have a relation here:

From that same Indian newspaper:

Sonia Ghandi, President of the Indian National Congress: "Tough anti-terrorist action should not lead to polarisation of our society... While recognising that there can be no compromise on internal security, we must make sure that no community feels itself under siege or an automatic target of suspicion."

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said an underlying sense of insecurity among Muslims was one reason why communal sensitivities continued to remain high even as communal tensions seemed to decline.

"It arises presumably from the erroneous linkage — made by the West — of treating the actions of a few as typical of the community as a whole, thus tarnishing the community's image. On our part, every care is being taken to dispel any such notion."

Burkas are great. It blocks the smell of alcohol on the women's breath.

Seriously, are women supposed to take that without any kind of rage, albeit passive aggressive? B.T.W. a passive aggressive will stab another in the back while smiling at them.

Women of Islam! You truly have the control, as women have discovered over many millenia. Smile and obey these chauvinist idiots while they're awake. Poison their food. Smother them while they sleep.

Islam was created to turn women into or keep us as subserviant slaves. We feed them, we sleep with them, we have the opportunities. Muslim men die just like any other men.

Jammu is a Hindu majority area. For Sonia Gandhi and Manmohan Singh to claim that this is because of an underlying sense of insecurity, or avoiding the polarization of society, just shows why as long as they run the Indian government (Sonia Gandhi having about the same status in the ruling party as Ayatollah Khamenei does in Iran's ruling clique.)

Posted by: Infidel Pride [TypeKey Profile Page] at September 24, 2006 6:15 PM

Just think, a "crime" of not wearing a burka is WAY WORSE than killing your husband. Infidel Pride, you may be on to something. If you're going to be killed anyway, make it a crime for something worthwhile. NO more sperm donor for her (muslim woman forced to cover) husband.

OOPS...sorry Infidel Pride, should be Infidel Proud.

Burkas are actually degrading to men. The purpose of the burka is to "protect the woman" from the uncontrollable sexual urges of the males who can't help but to rape the women if they catch a glimpse of hair or skin. Enforcing the burka dress code is a confession by the males that they cannot control their urges beyond that of wild animals.

That's true about Muslim men. However, in the area under question, the Muslim population is miniscule. Jammu (and Ladakh) isn't a part of Kashmir.

Square this circle. Make sense out of nonsense. Try to keep from going crazy.

What? Hindu women are acting un-Islamic. Can't allow that can we?

Posted by: Provoslavni [TypeKey Profile Page] at September 24, 2006 7:17 PM

How terrifying.

Posted by: Mo [TypeKey Profile Page] at September 24, 2006 7:35 PM

If this is a predominantly Hindu area then this murderous madman is deliberately provoking fear as a prelude to forcing the region to convert to Islam.

Are the Hindu and other non-Islamic men in the region going to allow their women to be terrorized in this fashion? Or are they going to stand up for their women and push these murderers out, hopefulling slitting the throats of those who make such threats.

Posted by: Maggie4Life [TypeKey Profile Page] at September 24, 2006 7:46 PM

Forcing non-Muslims to "act Islamic" is hardly unprecedented. It achieves several things: It sets protecting the "tender sensibilities" of Muslims as the highest good, imposes power on non-Muslims (a form of dhimmitude), it terrorizes non-Muslims, and it "softens things up" for a full-scale push at Islamization of the whole non-Muslim population.

Horrifyingly, this is starting to become a problem in parts of the West, also. I've read that girls and women in the banlieus (French public housing projects with a large Muslim population) have been pressured into weariing the hijab in order to avoid violent harrassment by Muslim "youths". These are not just Muslim women, either, but also non-Muslim immigrants from the Carribean and native French women as well.

Cutting throats for a wardrobe malfunction?

Perhaps, there is a opportunity here for Vera Wang.

I have a dream. In this dream, all the female posters to this site lead a jihad in places such as these to overthrow Islam's insane notions of the perfect woman (requiring them to be 3rd class citizens if not worse). One look at the posters would probably be enough to get most of the brainwashed women to either lead the fight to reform Islam (if that's even possible) or try to leave this cult. This jihad is televised and beamed especially to those backward places (it would be the first time I'd ever watch a reality show). Now THAT would be must see TV.

I know it's a pipe dream, but it would be a fascinating notion.

That's the whole point. We ARE un-Islamic. Get over it.

ISLAMFORLOSERS,

I also have a dream. Pamela Anderson is an undercover agent. While undertaking a dangerous mission in Iran she is jumped by a bunch of horny Muslim lads driving by in a big SUV. After she does the requisite Hollywood karate chops/kicks and they back away from her, she pulls out her AK-47 and does a 360, effectively taking out the bad guys and also turning her burka into a mini. She jumps into the SUV, drives off into the sunset and lives happily ever after.

Isabellathecrusader :

Pretty cool dream, I'd say.

But seriously, every time I read an article like this I get more and more amazed over how anal retentive this cult is. Nazism and communism among other totalitarianisms aren't even close.
EVERY single aspect of life, no matter how seemingly trivial, is covered with umpteen rules and regulations. I wonder if some Islamaniac scientist isn't working right now on a device to alter brainwaves in an effort to make the "faithful" ever more so. Dreaming is about the only activity not covered by the Koran and it's amazing this grave problem hasn't been remedied yet. No doubt there are ayatollahs out there wringing their hands over this oversight by Allah.

Posted by: ISLAMSFORLOSERS [TypeKey Profile Page] at September 24, 2006 10:40 PM

ISLAMFORLOSERS,

I think that its like this: Because Islam, Nazism and Communism are all demonically influenced, they've got to get rid of all our freedoms, since Jesus taught that Truth would set us free. (Do a google search for Hitler/Occult and Stalin/Occult. It will blow your mind.)All these "isms" are the antithesis of what God planned for us. The thing I fear the most is that we brought this on ourselves.

Put your fears to rest; there are no muslim scientists. Who would have time to be both a faithful muslim and a scientist?

Posted by: Susanp [TypeKey Profile Page] at September 24, 2006 11:06 PM

Since Islam preaches the opposite of what real religions preach it's no wonder it appears satanic. It's really convenient that Islam bans depictions of either its god or its prophet. Why? If a somewhat accurate depiction was allowed back in the early days would such a depiction look a lot like Satan? That would probably get at least some Muslims to ponder what their faith really is all about-the commandments of the devil himself.

Posted by: ISLAMSFORLOSERS [TypeKey Profile Page] at September 24, 2006 11:12 PM

Susanp :

Your point is well taken. However, anytime some evil device is needed to advance the faith it's inevitable that some Islamaniac will manage to build it. Just like that Dr. Khan kook from Pakistan with his roving a-bomb project.
