ITSY-BITSY, teeny-weeny bikinis are common -- but now multicultural Australia has head-to-foot "burqinis".
Designer Aheda Zanetti calls the outfit an "Islamic bikini" because it has pants and a top.
She said the costume, marketed under the name Ahiida and available on the internet, covered everything except hands, feet and face.
She said it had a "hijood", named after the traditional hijab. Mother-of-four Adeeba Nabulsi said the outfit allowed her to swim with her children in mixed-sex public pools.

It saves on having to buy sunscreen.

I've already seen those. John Kerry was wearing one while on his trip to NASA during his losing campaign in 2004.

Sure seems reasonable to toss acid on uncovered infidel harlots.
After all, they could wear one of these, and not tempt good muslim boys.

Actually, I could see something similar to this catching on.
Very few women actually look that great in a bikini, and after 4 kids, myself included!
Less worry about using sun block, having a tummy bulge, flabby thighs or a bad hair day!

She was afraid to go into the water
She was as nervous as she could be
She was afraid to go into the water
She was afraid that somebody would see
[One, two, three, four, tell the people what she wore]
It was an imam-sanctioned heavy-duty dark blue overall burquini
That she wore for the first time today.
An imam-sanctioned heavy-duty dark blue overall burquini
Though in her hijab she wanted to stay.

Unlike the rest of the world's men, muslim men can not control their impulses and must demand women be covered because otherwise they would rape them.
Islam is a sickness.

This may sound rather severe... but as humans, we're obligated to smother this backwards madness.
