The wearing of a burkha is REACTIONARY and has no place in modern day society whether in Britain, Saudi Arabia, or Pakistan. In Islamic countries enlightened women are fighting against oppression and subjugation, but because of the male dominated hierarchy it will take them decades, if ever, to achieve the same freedoms we in the West enjoy. What excuse do we have in Britain to encourage such outdated, reactionary practices? We should be encouraging progress and enlightenment. Do you not GET that? Why would you NOT want these brainwashed, oppressed women to join the
21st century?
