SARAJEVO (Reuters) - Two armed men disguised as Muslim women in burqas held up a bank in Sarajevo and got away with some $40,000, Bosnian police said on Tuesday.

They said the pair entered a Union bank branch in the capital wearing head-to-toe black dresses and veils typical of women adhering to the orthodox Islamic code and trained guns on customers. They then made customers lie on the floor while the emptied the tills, police added.

"Everything happened in a moment. Two persons in black niqabs (burqas) came into the bank. I thought they were ladies," the Sarajevo daily Oslobodjenje quoted bank customer Mehmedalija Komarac as saying.

Women in burqas and men with long beards have become a common sight in the Bosnian capital in recent years.

By the way, did you happen to notice that a number of companies and local governments are banned JihadWatch and DhimmiWatch as “Hate Speech” websites? http://www.jihadwatch.org/archives/017237.php

You mean this?

Yes, it’s time to outlaw burqas in Western countries. Even the head of the red mosque in Paki*hole just tried to escape dressed in a burqa!

Probably as soon as they started ordering the people around: “They then made customers lie on the floor” - their voices gave them away, and perhaps, hairy arms and man hands were revealed (if not more) when they pointed their guns and moved around.

I would ban all burkas from banks and stores. I read that one of the radical mullahs, in Pakistan, tried to escape dressed in a black burka.

"How about see-through burkas as a compromise?"

There was an article today about how satellite dishes beaming a few hundred channels of world television to Afghanistan is a complete shock to the populace because now the are getting European porn channels. The article is called "Porn for the Taliban" and the photo is explicit which is why I am not giving you the direct address. But the text is here:

Porn for the Taliban

In a dark tea room amid the dusty Kandahar, 23-year-old Latif stares with mouth agape.

A young boy smiles and giggles nervously as he stares at a pair of nude breasts; he has never seen anything like this as far as he can remember.

Satellite receivers arrived to the conservative town Kandahar in northern Afghanistan with the allied troops and, along with them, documentary films from Lithuania, Polish educational program and Catalan soap operas. All this is utterly new to the residents, as is pornography.

After the fall of the Taliban regime, satellite dishes have begun to spring from roof tops, adorning private homes, restaurants, coffee shops… everyone wants a peek into the unknown and the unknown galores. One hundred and seventy programs broadcast from the entire world, including four that only air pornography!

The orthodox Taliban, who until recently commanded women to stay at home or beat them because the genteel gender was too noisy while walking, may have disappeared from the stage, but the absence of extreme extremism does not mean that the Kandahar “Pashtuns” have abandoned their strict religious law that regulates interaction between the genders. The first encounters with the breath of fresh air represented nothing but a culture shock to the population of Afghanistan.

Culture shock

From entering puberty to old age, almost all women still wear burqas, which cover them from head to toe. Most men have never seen a naked woman outside the circle of their families.

It is therefore no surprise that the first encounters with satellite channels that offer 100% hardcore porn are the equivalent to the close encounters of the third kind. Men from Kandahar, cut off from the outside world for decades, accustomed to conflicts and uncompromising Taliban laws, have never seen anything like this, even though it is in fact exceptionally soft porn by western standards, usually aired between hotline ads.

A strange discomfort can be felt everywhere:

This is not good for our society, says a 26-year-old man; people should not watch things like that, it is not right.

There is, however, no shortage of curious glances. A group of Taliban wearing overgrown beards are sitting in a bar with their eyes riveted to the screen. A western woman enters the room and one of them frantically changes the channel.

Abdul Wasi, the owner of one of the many new satellite equipment stores, says that business is doing exceptionally well.

I sell digital receivers and satellite dishes for about 350 dollars and I import the equipment from Pakistan. I started the business a month ago and by now I have sold almost four hundred receivers. My store is always crowded, everyone wants to watch satellite television, says Wasi.

"What was the outcome of the case in Florida, where a muzzie-bwitch demanded her drivers license photo be burka’d?"

Believe it or not, they did the right thing. They revoked her license and said she had to get a new photo or accept the alternative, no license. It's a shame they let her get it to begin with though. At least they came to their senses after the fact.

They headed off the certain lawsuit by reminding the moo-slime that she doesn't have a right to drive. Driving is a privilege given to you by the State if you follow the rules

No, because these same guys will rape non-muslim women and think they’re women are doing these things... even if they’re there 24/7, they are kings of projection.

As migration increases in countries, so does muslim rape. Other than that, I agree.
