I can’t wait for the Los Angeles Times to produce videos with white nationalists explaining what their symbols mean to them. I’d love to see one on Nazis explaining what their symbols mean to them.
Am I saying that Islam is morally comparable to Nazis? I think that depends on the type of Islam or Nazism and the time and place.
From a Nazi perspective, and a Muslim perspective, Jewish rituals are likely to look satanic. From a Jewish perspective, Nazi symbols look satanic. Most non-Muslims regard Islam negatively.
It all depends on who-whom. Who is doing what to whom?
I can’t remember the last time the MSM let white nationalists speak freely about what they believe.
Any healthy westerner likely feels an instinctive revulsion against the hijab. Islam simply doesn’t fit in with the West. It doesn’t make Muslims bad guys, they’re just bad guys for the West. There’s no Western country that has been improved by the importation of thousands of Muslims.
If you found poisonous snakes in your bedroom, would you hate the snakes or would you hate the people who put them there? The Los Angeles Times wants America to become more comfortable with the presence of Muslims in our midst. From the non-Muslim perspective in the West and Israel, Muslims are poisonous snakes, just as from the Muslim and Arab perspective, the Jewish state is poison.
There’s nothing worse than not being able to speak for yourself.
Muslim American women who choose to wear the hijab face this problem every day. Because their voices are not often heard in the media, the veil is often misunderstood. Women who wear the garment may be discriminated against, or even be targeted for hate crimes.
Last month, a group of women were forced to leave a coffee shop in Laguna – because, they say, they were wearing hijab. A manager said they had violated the eatery’s policy allowing just a 45-minute stay during peak times, but the women say there were empty seats nearby.
We asked some women who wear the hijab to tell us their stories, in their own words.
