German religion ban violates Muslim rights: HRW
2009-02-27
" These laws in Germany clearly target the headscarf, forcing women who wear it to choose between their jobs and their religious beliefs "
HRW
Laws banning religious symbols and clothing for teachers and other civil servants in parts of Germany mainly target and violate the rights of Muslim women who wear the headscarf, a report published Thursday by Human Rights Watch (HRW) said.

The 67-page report analyzed the human rights implications of the ban, in force in half of the 16 German states, and suggested that it discriminates against Muslim women, excluding them from public sector employment as some women have given up their careers or left Germany.

"These laws in Germany clearly target the headscarf, forcing women who wear it to choose between their jobs and their religious beliefs," the report said. "They discriminate on the grounds of both gender and religion and violate these women's human rights."

#2  If those were Christians HRW wouldn't move a finger like they don't move a fucking finger for Christians in Muslim countries.

Charlatans.

#1  ...or those laws respect majority rights, in that most people want to chose the places where they are preached to.

Muslim dicta on fem-cloaking followed complaints of jihadi squabbling over females captured in war. A jihadi horndog can't fight over what he can't see.
