France rejects veiled Muslim wife

Faiza M was described to be living "virtually as a recluse" A French court has denied citizenship to a Muslim woman from Morocco, ruling that her practice of "radical" Islam is not compatible with French values. The 32-year-old woman, known as Faiza M, has lived in France since 2000 with her husband - a French national - and their three French-born children. Social services reports said the burqa-wearing Faiza M lived in "total submission to her male relatives". Faiza M said she has never challenged the fundamental values of France. Her initial application for French citizenship was rejected in 2005 on the grounds of "insufficient assimilation" into France. She appealed, and late last month the Conseil d'Etat, France's highest administrative body which also acts as a high court, upheld the decision to deny her citizenship.

A couple of weeks ago I got a bit of a fright seeing one of these women!
I was coming home from work and it had been a really hot sunny day and still was on my way home through Liverpool City Centre, when bold as brass this woman dressed in full black attire from head to toe including burka, strolls past me!
I couldn't believe it!!! and a lot of other people around and about were just like me just looking in disbelief!

Now I appreciate we live in multi-cultural societies and different faiths and all, but in my society, in my country where I live and work and also my children, I do not want to have people even close who believe in sharia law. It is such a sadistic and unfair law that should never be practised.

You chose to live in our society believing it to be a society you wanted to live, that is fair and just- You embrace our values and beliefs or get the fcuk outta here!

How do you look bold as brass when you're wearing a burkha?

Did she have nice eyes ?

Full battle dress for muslim women is a common sight in the east end of London.

Not as colourful as big mama Somalian women going to church in 35 different shades of red green and blue with a bowl of fruit for a hat.
