TUNISIA: Bagheads protesting a university’s veil ban get it shut down

Tunisia, once considered the most liberal, most secular country in the Muslim world, is getting a taste of what life will be like under the newly elected fundamentalist Islamist government.

Not only will the existing headbag ban be lifted, pretty soon all women will have to cover their heads or risk arrest.

 UPI    Women who endorse the ban carried signs saying, “Science before the niqab (full veil),” and “No to shackles, no to niqab, knowledge is free.”

Hundreds of Islamists protesting against a ban on women wearing face veils enrolling at university. Classrooms were empty, but the campus of Manouba University remained the arena of protests against the university’s policy prohibiting the niqab, or full-body veil.

The mainly young protesters blocked a main road leading through the area and threw stones at vehicles trying to get through. They shouted: “Allahu Akbar,” or “God is greatest” and “We will die for Allah!”

Secularist Tunisians Protest Against Islamist Attacks on Women’s Rights

A former French colony, Tunisia has a long history of secularist bans during the era of autocratic president Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali who was swept from power in January.Under Ben Ali rule, thousands of people who were suspected of membership of an Islamist political group were arrested.

    Women are rushing to be shackled and chained! Soon women will not be allowed to attend university at all and they will have to stay at home.

    It’s rather interesting how these things always seem to regress rather than progress.

    There were actually more women protesting than supporting the ban? Incredible! I would think that more women would want to be free and not wear the niqab. These women actually want to be slaves!

    Well, if more women want to be slaves than not, I guess you can’t stop them. I guess they actually want to get their asses beat. Well, then beat their asses like they deserve! They must be gluttons for punishment.

    Yeah, you wanted change and boy did you get it!!! Just like the post about the Moroccans burning themselves because there is no work.
    Before all this change, there was a huge tourist industry from France and other European countries that provided work for the people. Now with the islamist taking over that is drying up. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot! But then muslims are good at that. The last elections in America were supposed to bring in hope and change, but I think we also shot ourselves in the foot. I hope we learned our lesson for November!

    wnat the hell did these young people think was going to happen. Their country is finished and their lives are going to be only any good if they leave or they can look forward to a future that will be like Iran … bloody stupid kids that thought islamists were sane. How sane is wearing a bloody sheet covering your head in a university in 2012 … tell me aniother planet to live on because this one is simply mad – muslimmad

    Oh what the hell? Demands, demands, demands! I’d like to rip one of those bags of their heads, and laugh in their face…GAH! And what was with the ‘girl’ (Who knows when you cant see…) who was totally covered! Not even her eyes were viewable?? I would NOT let that bitch near my place of business if I was a shop owner- can you IMAGINE, if she fell over, in your store, as her vison WOULD be effected, and then sued for damages because she fell in YOUR store? Shiyte! Complete coverage MUST be banned, and NEVER allowed under any circumstance.! Make them meet OUR demands, demands, demands!..make them realise WE do NOT bow to them, and never will…may pig piss be upon them all…(Sorry about the language, but their ignorance and lack of brain cells is driving me NUTS!!)

  6. Silverlady says:

    And back to the Stone Age they go. They need to put the bags over the men’s heads since the men are so damn ugly. Let them have a taste of what they claim they want.

  7. John Sobieski says:

    These ‘liberal’ protestors may not like the lifting of the ban on headbags, but they are a MINORITY. They had better get used to it. It is part of their precious Islam. Muslims who want parts of Islam but not the whole are apostates. Blasphemers!

    WOW~!,,,
    Thanks must be given to His Imperial Caliph, Emperor O ~!, for assisting in this debacle,,,

  10. liz says:

    one lady had a bag covering her entire face! the material appeared to be solid bag, not even mesh. how does a teacher even know if the real student is in his class, or a friend taking the test for her?

    here’s an article on how muslims keep killing other muslims, yet the jews are blamed for genocidal behavior.

    was the most liberal and secular for the arab world, that’s for sure. There are majority muslim non arab nations which are more secular.

  13. No Muslima slave says:

    “They shouted: ‘Allahu Akbar,’ or ‘God is greatest’ and ‘We will die for Allah!’”

    So die already and go to your demon god, evil savages.

    they are gettting what they elected and i don’t feel sorry for them

  15. belinda says:

    The veil is a threat to women who do not wear one and tells them that an unveiled woman may be raped by a jihadist. Slaves and kafirs are not veiled and thus considered ‘mubaa’ (fair game).

    • Wendy - Australia says:

      Fair Game?????…..NO WOMAN IS FAIR GAME! And muslim men need to have this burned into their brain!!!!!
      muslims are the most ignorant, sexually active ferals this world has known…they go on and on about their women needing protection from men, yet it is their men who are doing the damage, not Western men..NO Western man would even attempt to seduce a woman covered from head to toe in rags…especially a muslim one…gah, muslim men are so…so….SO FRIGGIN’ DUMB! !!!!
