Amnesty: Europe Must Fight Anti-Muslim Prejudice - ABC News: By ANGELA CHARLTON Associated Press
PARIS April 24, 2012 (AP)
In this article, the author explores the European actions of nations and locations which seek to ban head covering and face covering, which seem rather a response to fear of Muslim activities than a protection of women's equality, as reported by Amnesty International. The report is titled "Choice and Prejudice," and "pays special attention to national laws or local rules against wearing headscarves or face-covering Islamic veils." Noted in the end of the article is the notorious example of the Norwegian mass-murder by a man who feared a Muslim takeover of Europe. Also noted in the article, to remind all of us who haven't the personal experience or memory, that Muslims have been a part of the fabric of Europe for generations, and there is no "telling them to go home." So head coverings are now to many in Europe, simply a rebellious religious statement, and as such bring fear to the uneducated and emotional and sometimes physical harm to those who wear them. The opening line begins with this phrase: "European laws on what girls and women wear on their heads. . . "

I heard they have removed the mass-murderers youtubevideo now. But I looked it up and he had some images of his ideal Scandinavian woman. She was tall and blonde, offcourse, and had absurdely big breasts compared to her bodysize. This unsymmetrical body-image that people nowadays apperently think looks sexy. Reminded me of the nazis, who had the same ideal image of women. He stated what a tragedy it would be when the muslims forced "our scandinavian women" to cover all off their bodies so we could not see them anymore. In his manifest he passionately talks about his love for western civilasation and values. The more bodyshape-revealing clothing for women is just one.
