A question for burqua and niqab supporters
If the burka or niqab are a religious requirement then why have eight Islamic countries banned it on security grounds? Cameroon, Chad, Congo, Morocco, Niger, Turkey and Tunisia have all banned it on security grounds. Whenever I put this point to those who advocate this garment I never get an answer.
Why is that?
I welcome your comments.
