Question Hijab campaign tweets pulled after French backlash



Europe's top human rights organisation has pulled posters from a
campaign that promoted respect for Muslim women who choose to wear
headscarves after provoking opposition in France.

The Council of Europe released the images last week for a campaign against
anti-Muslim discrimination.

A slogan on one advert read: "Beauty is in diversity as freedom is in hijab".

Several prominent French politicians condemned the message and argued
the hijab did not represent freedom.

But some Muslim women who wear headscarves said the reaction showed a
lack of respect for diversity and the right to choose what to wear in France.

National Rally candidate Marine Le Pen tweeted: "It's when women take their
veil off that they become free, not the other way around."

Have you ever heard of a woman wearing this who hasnt been brought up to be a Muslim from childhood?
