Russia appears to be taking serious moves to combat the “radicalization” of Muslims within its border. Recent pro-Islamic (Russian Muslims slam ban on books) and that Russia is banning the Islamic hijab—the headdress Islamic law requires Muslim women to wear—and, perhaps even more decisively, key Islamic scriptures, on the charge that they incite terrorism.
In the words of Arabic news site (Elaph) “Russia is witnessing a relentless war on the hijab. It began in a limited manner but has grown in strength, prompting great concern among Russia’s Muslims.”
The report continues by saying that women wearing the hijab are being “harassed” especially in the “big cities”; that they are encountering difficulties getting jobs and being “subject to embarrassing situations in public areas and transportation. The situation has gotten to the point that even educational institutions, including universities, have issued decrees banning the wearing of the hijab altogether.”

Seems to me that Putin is perfectly fine with Muslims as long as they support him.
If Russia has any sense, they’ll ban Islam.
I don’t think there could ever be a bigger contrast than Obama and Putin
Russia has a higher percentage of Muslims than America has of blacks, and some think that it is up to 18%, that is a heck of a voting block.
Only in certain respects. In others, they are quite alike.
They are both very effeminate in their own different ways, Putin seems to want to pretend to be butch though (to an hilarious extent), while Obama doesn’t worry about such things and seems more comfortable in his own skin.
So Putin is the top, and Barry is the bottom.
True... I’d not think I’d use the word honest about Barack, but he is an honest wimp.
I believe Putin still likes beautiful women - Barry, not so much ....
I don’t know but Putin is clearly trying to overcompensate for deep insecurities about his manhood, he is very North Korean like, except mostly focused on trying to convince us that he is manly and ‘’like totally masculine dude, more masculine than you and all you guys, like totally super masculine’’.
Ever notice how this super outdoorsman who hunts half naked, fishes half naked, rides horses half naked, and usually hatless, never tans, never burns, never shows any sign of sun exposure, or gets his clothes dirty or wet while doing all of that outdoors living (and always with exceptional success)?
Very Big bowl of Popcorn required , LOL
In Russia? What is this voting of which you speak?
Surely you don’t think there are fair, free elections?
I thought that some of our anti-America/pro-Russia posters might offer some insight on that.
We should do that now to Islam, but it masquerades as a religion.
The article reads banning the “radicalization” parts of Islam, from my understanding, they have a huge Muslim population, parts of it like Chechnya and Dagestan are Muslim.
Russia can make a deal and allow all Muzzies can move to Chechnya free to practice their faith.
I bet the owner of The Blaze is greatly saddened by this.
If they were smart, they’d ban Islam.
