    Thumbs up Afghanistan Bans Full Face Veils



    In a sudden and
    shocking move,
    Afghanistan’s President
    Hamid Karzai has
    authorized a ban on
    wearing full veils in public places. This revolutionary
    action makes Afghanistan the first
    Islamic country to impose restrictions
    on a form of attire that many Muslims
    consider a religious obligation.

    Ban on full-face veils instituted in Afghanistan

    I'm proud to make you glad!

    Karzai is a puppet President and his real character was uncovered by the slain col. Imam.

    Why are you guys wishing something for Afghans that you wouldn't want in Pakistan?

    But yeah, as if anybody in AFG gives two shits about any authority. Afghans will do what Afghans do best (not give a **** about anything outside the borders of their villages or towns).

    The face veil isn't even Islamic, it's more cultural than anything
