Students at Brigham Young University don hijabs in solidarity with Muslims
Jihad Watch ^ | DECEMBER 18, 2016 | Robert Spencer

Posted on 12/18/2016 11:33:35 AM PST by Mr. Mojo

These BYU students have ably signaled their virtue, and can now sit back and enjoy the rounds of applause they will receive from the enlightened and intelligent, but where is their concern of for Aqsa Parvez, whose Muslim father choked her to death with her hijab after she refused to wear it?

Or Aqsa and Amina Muse Ali, a Christian woman in Somalia whom Muslims murdered because she wasn’t wearing a hijab?

Or the 40 women who were murdered in Iraq in 2007 for not wearing the hijab;

or Alya Al-Safar, whose Muslim cousin threatened to kill her and harm her family because she stopped wearing the hijab in Britain;

or Amira Osman Hamid, who faced whipping in Sudan for refusing to wear the hijab;

or the Egyptian girl, also named Amira, who committed suicide after being brutalized for her family for refusing to wear the hijab;

or the Muslim and non-Muslim teachers at the Islamic College of South Australia who were told that they had to wear the hijab or be fired;

or the women in Chechnya whom police shot with paintballs because they weren’t wearing hijab;

or the women also in Chechnya who were threatened by men with automatic rifles for not wearing hijab;

or the elementary school teachers in Tunisia who were threatened with death for not wearing hijab; or the Syrian schoolgirls who were forbidden to go to school unless they wore hijab;

or the women in Gaza whom Hamas has forced to wear hijab; or the women in Iran who protested against the regime by daring to take off their legally-required hijab;

or the women in London whom Muslim thugs threatened to murder if they didn’t wear hijab;

or the anonymous young Muslim woman who doffed her hijab outside her home and started living a double life in fear of her parents, or all the other women and girls who have been killed or threatened, or who live in fear for daring not to wear the hijab?

Who is standing in solidarity with them? Those who taunt or brutalize hijab-wearing women are louts and creeps, and should be prosecuted if they commit any acts of violence. At the same time, the women who don’t wear hijab in Muslim countries are far more likely to be victims of violence than hijabis in the West. Who speaks for them?

They should all go to Mecca during the haj. Or go to a no go area in Germany or France.

To really express solidarity, they need to allow themselves to be gang raped, then abused verbally, then to have their necks sliced in two.

They’ll think hijab when some Muzzie removes their head from their shoulders and sticks it on a pole somewhere.

Students don swastikas in solidarity with Nazis?

National Socialism is really misunderstood.
Not all Nazis are bad, just the fundamental ones.

Some Muslims/Jihadists might actually find their actions to be Blasphemy. They better hope someone doesn’t come looking for them, for ridiculing another religion....

And wait till you idiots get stoned for being sluts, you dumb$hit$. Also free flying lessons for the LGBT among which is probably half in universities these days, and head lopping if you don’t submit to their authority. These are the very same types who that have been participating in all the anti-Trump rhetoric and working for Soros.

Changing it to twenty five would solve a lot of problems. Better yet Only letting those who pay property taxes and income taxes.
