Two Women Wearing Burqas

Belgium moves to become first European country to ban the burka

Daily Mail, UK – March 31, 2010

Belgium is on the verge of becoming the first European nation to ban the burka. A parliamentary committee agreed yesterday to outlaw the wearing of face-covering veils in public. The full Parliament will vote later this month.There have been debates over banning the burka in France, Switzerland and Italy…

Europe is starting to get fed-up with Islam. And this is an arena where the EU differs from the USA–the USA would be loathed against such a ban (and this would not be expected to be possible in places like Southern California)–but Europe has a different view.

France has also indicated it would like to eliminate burkas, while Switzerland voted to ban the construction of more minarets last Fall (see Switzerland Votes to Ban Minarets)

A divide between Islam and the nominally-Christian Europe is going to become more and more real. The vote in Belgium is simply one more demonstration of that.
