Beneath the burqa -- a bruised and badly beaten teenager by Phyllis Chesler FOX News December 16, 2013 http://www.phyllis-chesler.com/1212/beneath-the-burqa-a-bruised-and-badly-beaten Print Send RSS Share: Be the first of your friends to like this. A reader sent me a story Monday from The New Zealand Herald about a teenage girl who was badly and repeatedly beaten at home -- and who was then forced to disguise her considerable facial injuries, including a broken nose, damaged teeth, and extensive bruising. I am no fan of the burqa and have even argued that the West should ban it. Daniel Pipes, director of the Middle East Forum, views the burqa as a security risk—and he is right to do so. Both petty criminals and jihadist terrorists have entered jewelry stores, banks, shopping malls, airports, and railway stations to commit evil deeds and to escape capture in this disguise. http://www.phyllis-chesler.com/1212/beneath-the-burqa-a-bruised-and-badly-beaten Related Topics:  Hijab & Burqa, Islamic Gender & Religious Apartheid
