The Burkini Is About Sexual Violence Against Women
Frontpagemag.com ^ | August 30,2016 | Daniel Greenfield

The media has found its latest civil rights cause. It’s not the plight of Christians in Muslim countries who are being blocked from coming here as refugees because Obama’s refugee policy favors Muslims. Obama brought over 2,000 Syrians here in July. Only 15 of them were Christians. It’s not the rising fear of an Islamic terrorist attack in Jewish synagogues. I have lately witnessed unprecedented levels of security at synagogues including guards in body armor and checkpoints. Racist Muslim violence against Jewish synagogues has been a staple of Islamic terrorism for too many years.

Interesting article. The thesis is the Burka, hijab, et al are NOT religious garb for piety’s sake. They are “do not rape me - rape the infidel women around me not wearing them” signs.

In effect, they are the rape spotters as a forward OP would be a spotter for artillery.

Having traveled in the Middle East several times (UAE and Qatar) I’m always stunned to see those little women wrapped in black burlap sacks following several steps behind their masters (husband,father,son,etc).I don’t know if the burlap sacks are about violence but they’re surely about domination...letting women know that they’re just some guy’s annoying accessory.

Some are arguing the command to cover isn’t in the Qur’an, but it is.

Burka’s and burkinin’s indicate a TOTAL dedication to sharia law.
The women is telling everyone she is a bigot who will never accept the non muslim, or Kafir.

In the end, the women is a victim, unable to make choices about her life outside of Sharia law.

For your interest...

Muslim women don’t wear hijabs, burkas or any other similar garb as a fashion statement or even an expression of religious piety. Their own religion tells us exactly why they wear them.

“O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies that they may thus be distinguished and not molested.” (Koran 33:59)

It’s not about modesty. It’s not about religion. It’s about putting a “Do Not Rape” sign on Muslim women. And putting a “Free to Molest” sign on non-Muslim women.

.......................

Exactly the point I was trying to make the other day...

Laws about how one dresses? Seriously? That should not be something any legislative body should waste their time on.

In the Minnesota Twin Cities, a.k.a. New Mogadishu, it is common to see women and girls cloaked in burkas, while the men dress in jeans. In this liberal la-la land why don’t the feminists protest this obvious repression of women?

Mohammedanism is NOT a religion. It is a cult of hate started by a camel humping pedophile. He stole parts of Judahism and Christianity and used them to justify rape, murder and theft.

They also serve the function of hiding how ugly a Muslim guy's wife is.
