World Hijab Day encourages women to try covering up
CNN ^ | 2/2/16 | Emanuella Grinberg

Posted on 02/01/2016 7:03:26 AM PST by nycteacher

Khan started World Hijab Day to build empathy for this perspective and to encourage non-Muslims, and Muslims who don't normally wear a hijab, to try it out. The Arabic word hijab refers not just to a headscarf but to modest dress and behavior in general.

Muslim man- encourages women to wear a sheet over themselves. Feminists silent. Lefties silent

Christian man- encourages women to dress modestly and doesn’t say wear a sheet over themselves. Feminists outrage. Lefties outrage

I think the days of trying to integrate those barbarians are past. We need to exclude them until such time as they exterminate themselves.

I’m calling “World STFU Muslims Day”, and encouraging Muslims to try shutting up.

World Hijab Day encourages women to try covering up

So the rest of the world can enjoy the benefits of covering women from head to toe and hiding them away from the world - which seem to be rampant pedophilia among Muslim men and blatant, often criminal, disrespect for women by Muslim men.

Wearing a burka is out of the question as far as I’m concerned. You cover your face, I think you’re here to rob. I don’t care if it’s the President’s daughter.

The hijab thing, the hoodie thing, well, you’re gonna be profiled. One dressed so needs to get over it or dress differently. You wear the hijab get-up and I’ll think you’re part of the muslim invasion I detest. You wear a hoodie when it’s not windy and cold, I’ll think you are a thug or that you are at least a wannabe thug. Same with a stocking cap over the ears in nice or hot weather. It’s just as stupid as the pants on the ground thing.

How about a beheading or two to go along with it, perhaps a few child immolation’s?

Ha! A wookie in a hijab! Well, like they say, if you live long enough you’ll see just about everything...

If Baraq gets the job as Grand Caliph of ISIL in 2017, she’ll be all set.

I’m a Catholic and the only thing I will wear on my head is what I normally wear - a ball cap (often Seattle Seahawks one) if I need to run to the store on the weekend and don’t feel like doing my hair (OK, I do wear a straw hat or a cowboy hat on a rare occasion). The only other thing I’ll wear on my head is a mantilla in churches in Italy, etc. that still have the tradition of a women’s hair being covered when in the church (years ago we wore hats or mantillas in church, but that tradition was taken away years ago, though some countries still have it).

No way this lady is wearing a hijab or anything remotely related to Islam. Are they going to have world crucifix, world bible day or world rosary day?? Nah- I didn’t think so.

Wonder if Moochelle will be accompanying Obama to the US Mosque.
