While the proposed burqa ban threatens to take away the fundamental rights of some Muslim women, the true victim of this debate has been women’s rights activists. By actively supporting this ban it has become obvious that these activists are hypocrites whose sole purpose is to oppress non-western women, and impose foreign sensibilities on them through any means possible, even if that means becoming a hypocrite to the very principles of freedom that they so passionately keep blabbing about in the media.

By actively supporting this ban it has become obvious that these [women's rights] activists are hypocrites whose sole purpose is to oppress non-western women...

Excuses such as difficulty in communicating, and security concerns are weak at best, and the Covid-19 pandemic with its compulsory face mask requirement has further shown that the reasons presented to ban the burqa are without a shred of merit. It is no wonder that many believe the pandemic is an act of God, that has rendered the case against the burqa, completely void. Many non-Muslims have now come to the conclusion that face coverings of any kind are not the “great barrier” that these women’s rights activists claim it to be. The article that appears here, discusses this to great merit.

The burqa maybe worn by only a few women, but defending their right to do so is the responsibility of our entire community and the greater country. If we fail to secure the rights of these women, the threat to our rights in the future will be overwhelming. In addition, we must consider the threat posed to women by these women’s rights groups, and ensure that these groups respect the opinion of the women they claim to represent without allowing them to hijack the voice of the women folk to further their agenda.
