#2 The UKIP demonstrates that the enemy of my enemy is not my friend.

1) The UKIP is not the British National Party

2) If you allow the burka then women are pressured to wear it (wear it or else...) and their male relatives are threatened to be considered apostates. You know what happens to apostates.

3) Great numbers of woemn wearing burka are a way to intimidate non-muslims and the British government: "see how numerous we are and how string is our control you wouldn't want to sen troops to Afganistan, allow such anti-Islam activist to visit UK, allow cartoons of Muhammad. This could cause riots you know"

And don't tell me about Freedom of religion: same way we wouldn't allow the Aztec cult, Kali cult or the burning of widows we may ban the burka ad perhaps Islam itself. If teh Founding Fathers had had to deal with one of the above the wording of First Amendment would be very different.

#3 Good. Don't know why but I had a dream last night that Vice President Biden's wife converted to Islam and was wearing a hijab on TV. Better than a burqa I suppose...

Fyi for the site administrator--the "Your Name" field of the comment submission window automatically populated with "Vortigern Thising4238" and said I have commented 234 times, which is not the case... So I filled in my "real" info instead.

#4 Maybe instead of banning a item of clothing worn by a fraction of women, they should target the men who advocate murder and terrorism and recruit men to go kill/get killed while they safely live on the dole.

Never told that we should stop at banning the burqa. I think ban the burqa and not stop at it. However it sends an ideological signal and WOT is primarily an ideological war.

For the burqa it is not apiece of cloth:  I have heard of a cleaning woman in Spain of Magrab ascent who goes to work fully veiled and removes her veil as soon as the door closes behind her. She explained to her employer that she hated it but that she like may other Magrebi women in Spain had had to wear it out of fear of being attacked by islamists in the distrct where she lives.

Not a bad idea. Burqa-clad women are more likely to "belong" to men who advocate murder and terrorism.. More likely to be the spouse of, or related to, an islamist. It is, more often than not, a sign of abuse; much like a black eye or bruises. Women who do not wish to wear a burqa are forced to by spouses and family - on the threat of violence or even death. Ban the burqa. Then arrest the male(s) responsible for enforcing the wearing of the garment and jail them whenever a burqa-wearing women is seen. Spousal abuse. Mental abuse. Forcible confinement. etc. Family violence. Death threats. Got to be something actionable in there. Very few women want to be smothered under the weight of this manmade mobile prison. Just can't say so under penalty of harm or death.

Take a peek under the burqa and find the terrorized women underneath. Then follow her home and check on the "family values" for arrests. Going to need safe houses however. The burqa-demanding islamists are a violently insane bunch.

#7 Deport the husbands/fathers and let the burkha wearers decide if they want to follow.
