I love Muslims

Muslims are not the ones to shy away from creating controversies and decision problems for non-Muslims. I like the attitude of sticking your neck out on controversies even if your neck , along with face and rest of the body, is fully covered in a black piece of cloth with only a small slit for the eyes to see out.

For the last few days, the media was abuzz with Jack Straw's remarks that Muslim women give up veil. Just to make sure the issue is literally brought to head, a Muslim school teacher appeared before her students fully veiled. She was promptly suspended for that. Now more controversies; more decision problem for English school authorities whether to sack her; more breat-beating by multi-culturalists; more bitching by Muslims about discrimination and suppression of Muslims
