Belgium moves towards banning Islamic veils
It looks like Belgium is doing something positive for a change, by banning the niqab:
(IsraelNN.com) A parliamentary committee in Belgium voted on Wednesday to ban the wearing of face-covering veils in public, and the full House of Representatives is expected to vote on the bill in late April. The Interior Affairs Committee, in which all major parties are represented, was unanimous in its decision.I hope they don't let alleged legal issues get in the way, because as the article goes on to tell, fools are trying to challenge Europe's wish to defend itself.
"We cannot allow someone to claim the right to look at others without being seen," MP Daniel Bacquelaine of the French-speaking MR liberal-values party told the Associated Press. "It is necessary that the law forbids the wearing of clothes that totally mask and encloses an individual.”
