ISIS bans women from wearing burkas after chiefs attacked by veiled assassins

[Croatsky]

[quote]In a bizarre turn of events, Islamic State fighters are now banning women from wearing burkas in security centres in the northern Iraqi city of Monsul and have declared the full-face veils are now a security risk.

According to [URL="http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/707468/ISIS-burka-ban-Islamic-State-full-face-veils-security-risk"]The Express[/URL], an insider told Al Alam News Network that terrorist chiefs had changed their mind following a string of attacks on ISIS commanders by women wearing burkas and niqabs in recent months.[/quote]

Oh the irony.

[Sgt.Kickass]

LOL,now that was really surprising.

[Sableye]

i hope they have some starch to go with that irony

[DaCool]

Can't have it both ways, eh? Lmao.

You can't spell fundamentalism without mental.

[Shier]

What the fuck am I even reading at this point?

[SirJon]

So does this make france less or more progressive

[PsychedelicLiz]

It appears they have vaulted over some type of giant fish.

[QUOTE=SirJon;51008980]So does this make france less or more progressive[/QUOTE]

It makes France such a seemingly influential country that even isis themselves can't help but hop on the bandwagon!

[Zonesylvania]

You'd be forgiven for mistaking this as satire.

Or fun!

[QUOTE=Cructo;51009017]One of the arguments for the burka ban is exactly what happened there, you don't know who's really behind the burka.

I hope this will move people in the west to ban burkas as well.[/QUOTE]

definitely

if a destabilized nation governed by ISIS thinks this is a good idea, then they've gotta be on to something

[Jelman]

:happy:

ISIS are a joke

Does this make countries who haven't banned it [I]less[/I] progressive than isis??

That would be a hilariously awkward designation.

But seriously, most countries have banned burkas in government offices and secure locations as well.

[RobL]

They gon be banning muslim immigration next

[U-Lander]

Are these sources good? Seems off to me.

[QUOTE=SirJon;51008980]So does this make france less or more progressive[/QUOTE]

It's almost a cosmic joke that western nations dealing with actual terrorism and threats forbid themselves and trouble themselves with banning these things, yet the actual terror group responsible for it has done so for the same reasons - security.

[Cloak_Raider]

[QUOTE=Cructo;51009027]nice job missing the point

They at least caught on to the fact that it is a security concern.[/QUOTE]

you're right, i mean after all, we have to deal with all these attacks on our commanders performed by women in burkas

I guess I must be a criminal! After all, when I'm wearing it you can't see my face.

[editline]a[/editline]

Fuck man, we should ban hoodies too! Those can obscure who you are as well!

Seriously, legitimate question: what's the difference between two difference pieces of clothing that do the same damn thing? Why do you want to ban one and not the other?

80 to 95 percent of pedophiles are men.

By your logic, we must ban men because some of them are bad.

Massive quantities of H2O are found within every murderer, drug dealer, gang banger, thief, racial supremacist, religious radical, terrorist, and traitor that has ever existed. This deadly chemical is being given to our children daily. You know what we must do.

Back on the actual topic, ISIS is in it for power, as with every one of these movements; the religion aspect is just a decorative indoctrination and control tool. This is just another convenient sign of the pragmatism of the movement shining through the dogma.

I can't believe I'm rooting for ISIS now.

Time to start re-evaluating my life.

[Cloak_Raider]

[QUOTE=Cructo;51009311]It's not a coincidence like "criminals wore hawaii shirts so let's ban it", it's more of a "these terrorists wore religious clothes that completely conceal the face that helped them flee" thing.[/QUOTE]

presumably you have this same problem with every other piece of clothing that obscures your identity, like hooded clothing or scarves worn with a puffer jacket

and motorcycle helmets

To be fair if I saw you wearing that shit in public not on Halloween I'd assume something fishy too :v:
