| Muslim women to be allowed to wear their veils in identity document photos |
| 2006-06-20 |
| The Spanish Ministry for the Interior is to allow Muslim women to wear their veil in photographs used for the new electronic DNI identity documents. The new electronic DNI cards started to be issued in a pilot scheme in Burgos last March, and will be implemented nationwide from 2008. The Ministry has informed the Islamic community here that instructions are to be circulated to police stations explaining that Muslim women can pose with the veil in place ‘in those cases where determined practices, beliefs or religious orders oblige them to hide their hair and ear lobes’. The Spanish ministry considers that provided the eyebrows, eyes, nose and lips are visible, the photo can be accepted. |

| #17 In than case they are not allowed to wear a veil but a headscarf. Ding, ding, ding ... we have a winner. Looks like only pihkalbadger read the fine print. The Spaniards are talking head scarves and not veils. Any country that allows women to wear veils in their passport or driver's license photos should be blacklisted for international air travel. |

| #12 Alright, I know it's only a theoretical question, but what happens when a veiled woman under age asks for a drink and shows her mom's driver's license? |

| #11 Angie, you probably could. There's a fetish group out there for everything, I swear. |

| #10 In than case they are not allowed to wear a veil but a headscarf. Yeah, guys. Read past the headline. You have to see their actual faces; it's only the deadly hair rays (do photographs capture the hair rays, I wonder?) and the ear lobes that can be covered. I had no idea ear lobes were such a turn on. I wonder if I could start a for-pay site featuring my ear lobes. What do you guys think? They're virgins, you know. Never been pierced. |

| #7 I dont recall them making exceptions for Catholic nuns in tradtional habit. This is bullshit. OK - lets get them to give a photo ID of a KKK member in his hood, with only the "the eyebrows, eyes, nose and lips are visible". We can get Bobby Byrd to help him iwth his claim of "religious preferenece". |
