Ask. ASK. Not force. He is talking about ASKING women to VOLUNTARILY wear a headscarf out of solidarity with women who do so for religious reasons, if there comes a day when they are to be "banned". He is not talking about forcing anyone to do anything. Because he also specifically says;
"It is every woman’s right to always dress how she wants, that is my opinion on the matter,” he told an audience of school pupils."
A valiant effort to twist something into fearful propaganda though Brillo. Shame that DR ruined it for you by actually linking to the source material you cherry picked out of context comments from.

Such a 'suggestion' is pretty OTT - so how long before some attempt to make it more than that. That is the point. Are women's rights going to be superseeded by religious doctrine?
I can assure you I wanted to post the link but couldn't, so DR did me a favour - I could hardly type the whole thing could I. But I did quote his own words. So a valiant effort to imply I was being 'selective' with my post.
