oh, the horror.

The ACLU later filed a public records request with the sheriff's department, seeking a policy statement for religious clothing for the incarcerated, but were told there was no document, said Hector Villagra, director of the ACLU's Orange County office. Villagra said he found that "astonishing" since the U.S. Department of Justice has a policy that allows Muslim women to have three hijabs while in custody.

Would it be a stretch to say that she wants to be treated per Shari'a law? If so, then perhaps she ought to be careful what she wishes for. From the article...

The couple had pleaded guilty in June 2006 to a misdemeanor violation of welfare fraud and were sentenced to three years probation and ordered to complete 30 days of community service.

Chopping her hands off would certainly eliminate the need to look under her hijab.

Too bad she wasn’t strip searched in front of security cameras.

""For Souhair, to have her head uncovered in public – particularly in the presence of men who are not part of her immediate family – is a serious breach of faith and a deeply humiliating and defiling experience," the suit says."

The law suit only serves to emphasise how sick and deranged the tenets of islam are. It wasn't the sheriff who 'humiliated' the woman, it was her twisted islamic beliefs that caused the 'humiliation'. The real irony here is that Muslims are so easily humiliated and outraged by the slighest inkling of anything un-islamic, they are the kings of Pride and bigotry, which reveals a complete lack of real humility in their nature. There is nothing more dangerous to the fate of humanity than Islam.

let's see here...

Being arrested for welfare fraud is not humiliating and demeaning, but uncovering your hair is.

R-i-i-i-i-g-h-t....!

Game the system, sister!

Khatib, a U.S. citizen who emigrated from Lebanon, along with her husband, Amro Khatib, 32, were in Orange County Superior Court's north courthouse on Nov. 1, 2006, to seek an extension on their community service. The couple had pleaded guilty in June 2006 to a misdemeanor violation of welfare fraud and were sentenced to three years probation and ordered to complete 30 days of community service.

It's way past time to allow Muslims into the US, and make them citizens. Americans should not be asked to invite people into the country who want to kill them. Also, we have plenty of people committing welfare fraud without having to import more problems. BTW, how does someone emigrate to the US, get citizenship and get on welfare?? Makes you want to vote against every incumbent in DC regardless of party.
