Sweden: Infidel teachers wear niqab to protest burqa ban

Jan 17, 2020 2:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Sweden has been so welcoming to the flood of migrants from Muslim countries that its own country it is now unrecognizable, prompting headlines in the mainstream media such as this one from the Telegraph: “Sweden is a perfect example of how not to handle the Great Migration.” Politico ran an article entitled “Sweden’s violent reality […]

France: Senator compares veiled women to “Halloween witches,” critics seek parliamentary sanctions against him

Nov 2, 2019 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

“French Independent Senator Jean Louis Masson compared wearers of the Islamic veil to ‘Halloween witches’ during a debate in the French parliament, and added that ‘if they are not happy, let them go back where they come from.’ “The senator from Moselle hit out against wearers of the Islamic veil on school trips. He said […]

Paris: Police in no-go suburb take the side of Muslim woman illegally wearing face veil

“Activists of the Observatory of the Secularism in Paris’s no-go suburbs have expressed outrage after police took the side of a Muslim woman illegally wearing a full-face veil following an altercation.” The battle to preserve Western civilization continues to rage in France, and the reaction by the Observatory of the Secularism is a sign that […]

Canada: “Islamophobia” screaming niqabi terrorizes bus driver after not being picked up

Jun 13, 2019 9:56 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

In a country like Pakistan, the word of a Muslim in a personal complaint against a kaffir is automatically received as truth and then results in various punishments and public alarm. It is the norm in such environments where reasoning and evidence are secondary to the Sharia, but such judgments are completely unacceptable in developed […]

Afghanistan publicly lashes women for not being fully veiled; one was beaten so badly she lost consciousness

Apr 23, 2019 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

“Aziza….was rounded up by the Taliban’s shadow police for being out of her house without her husband and not being fully veiled. She was beaten so badly she lost consciousness.” In every country, the more Sharia-compliant it becomes, the more brutality is inflicted upon women and infidels. Brunei recently made headlines over its Sultan’s determination […]

Virginia: Muslim family claims hospital guard kicked them out, said niqabbed women looked “scary”

Jan 12, 2019 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Muslims now own the mass media, apparently, and any charge levied against an infidel by them, newsworthy or not, becomes a big news item, such as the hijab-wearing 11-year-old girl in Canada who lied about being attacked by an “Islamophobe”; a Huffington Post writer still wrote that she deserved an apology. Now comes more big […]

Video from UK: When a man covers his face and enters a bank

Aug 19, 2018 10:07 am By Joshua Winston

 Michael lives in a northeastern town that is nowhere near as bad as London, but already he feels the need to speak up against sharia and the niqab. In a bid to prove equality, he entered a bank (Lloyd’s, notorious for giving out sharia mortgages and loans) and he attempted to make a deposit. […]

The niqab is a form of torture

Aug 13, 2018 9:07 am By Joshua Winston

Yesterday I spoke with a young, 21-year-old Australian man called Joey. He was disgusted by any number of things – his generation’s constant whining and hurt feelings, the educational system being one-sided, people not integrating into society, and the niqab, among others. Joey – We have an effeminate culture where people feel that everyone’s feelings […]

Australia: Ex-Muslim forced to wear niqab for years says “I hate the niqab”

Feb 20, 2018 1:27 pm By Robert Spencer

Can she say that? Or will Australia’s smart set forthwith denounce her for “Islamophobia”? “‘I hate the niqab’: Ex-Muslim who runs an atheist blog says she ran away from home after her mother forced her to wear the ‘dehumanising’ face covering,” by Stephen Johnson, Daily Mail Australia, February 20, 2018: An ex-Muslim woman has described […]

Maldives: School fires employee for wearing niqab

Feb 14, 2018 8:28 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The headline “School sacks employee for wearing niqab” jumps off the page, as in the West, a more expected title would be “School sacks employee for criticizing niqab.” This incident happened in Laamu Atoll, an administrative division of the Maldives in Southeast Asia. The reason? The letter sent to her sites clauses in articles 273 […]

UK: Scoutmaster fired for calling niqab “Darth Vader tent”

Feb 13, 2018 6:07 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

A Scoutmaster in the UK, Brian Walker, complained about a niqab-wearing canoeist: “Canoeists don’t dress like this; they need all-round unobstructed vision so they protect the group. They will most likely drown wearing that Darth Vader tent.” The Scouting Association fired him, saying that “inclusivity is at the heart of modern scouting and is a […]

Ex-Muslim Says: Ban the Niqab

Dec 13, 2017 12:10 pm By Shazia Hobbs

Life today for Muslim women in the UK is very different from when I was growing up as a Muslim girl in a Muslim household. You know you are getting old when you start talking about ‘the good old days’ in relation to your past, but life in Glasgow, Scotland, in the 70s and 80s […]

Australia: Imam says that women need to wear hijab so that men can control their sexual urges

Nov 7, 2017 8:08 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

A hardline Islamic leader says women need to wear the hijab so men can control their sexual urges. Australian rock band member and convert to Islam, Sheikh Zainadine Johnson puts the responsibility of controlling male sexual predators on women, and he cites the Qur’an to do so. There are many who still insist (or believe) […]

Sweden: New books for preschoolers promote polygamy and the niqab

Two new children’s books are released in Sweden….They are called “Grandfather has four wives” and “Grandmother is no ghost.” Just when you thought it could not get any worse in Sweden. The new children’s books are being sold at the Gothenburg Book Fair, promoting polygamy and the wearing of the niqab to children as young […]

Germany bans face coverings for drivers amid claims of anti-Muslim discrimination

Sep 24, 2017 12:41 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Germany has decided to ban face coverings, including the niqab and the burqa, while driving. As expected, some are screaming “discrimination,” a word now used either to ram through an agenda or to pave the way for special allowances for one group over another. The German Transport Ministry said  that “the rule of law requires […]

UK: Schoolboy put into “deradicalization” program for saying Muslim women should not be allowed to wear the niqab

Jan 9, 2017 10:54 am By Robert Spencer

“White” appears three times in this article as if it were the natural opposite of “Muslim,” reflecting the British media’s universal tendency to see the jihad threat in racial terms: Muslims are a different race, and those who oppose jihad terror are vehemently suspected of “racism.” The possibility that there could be white Muslims who […]

UK: Police hunting for veiled woman with knife after teenager stabbed to death

Dec 3, 2016 5:28 pm By Robert Spencer

It’s likely that what the ever-clueless Daily Mail, the worst paper in the Western world, means by “burka” is actually a niqab, as the latter are far more common in Britain and are often referred to as burkas by people who don’t know one from the other. In any case, the perpetrator’s face was covered, […]

UK: Muslim cleric calls for burqa ban in Britain

Oct 20, 2016 1:56 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

An Oxford-based Muslim cleric has called for Britain to ban the burqa, arguing that the wearing of a face veil is not Islamic but the product of a misogynistic culture. He further argues: Since the burqa and niqab are ancient habits and not mentioned in the Koran, it is, therefore, pre-Islamic, not Koranic and ipso […]

Egypt drafts bill to ban face veil for women, says it’s Jewish tradition

Mar 9, 2016 11:53 am By Robert Spencer

Yes, that’s why you see so many Jewish women wearing face veils. But labeling something “Jewish” in Egypt is likely to get more people to oppose it; that could be Amna Nosseir’s strategy. In reality, the niqab and burqa arise from the assumption underlying the idea that a woman must cover her hair. Muhammad did […]
