College in West Midlands Shows Balls over Burka.

In the seemingly impenetrable wall that the sanctimonious, politically correct, multiculturalist elite has thrown up between public discourse & any realistic, honest criticism of Islam, a crack has appeared, letting in just the tiniest glimmer of light, showing that, yes, Muslims can be stood up to, their every daft little custom does not have to be treated with simpering genuflection.

Those weird, hideous head bags that women in the Middle East are killed for not wearing, the niqab & the burka, have been banned from campuses in Birmingham, as reported by MailOnline today (hat-tip to Just call me Allah @cheshirecat0025):

Birmingham college bans Muslim students from wearing religious veils for 'security reasons'

  • Birmingham Metropolitan College forces teenagers to remove items
  • Staff say it is for safety and ensures people are 'identifiable at all times'
  • Guidelines have divided opinion, with one 17-year-old calling it 'disgusting'

Muslim students have been banned from wearing religious veils into a college because of fears regarding security.

Teenagers at Birmingham Metropolitan College have been told to remove any items of clothing covering their faces so they are 'easily identifiable at all times'.

But while some students welcomed the move, arguing it keeps them safer, others called it 'disgusting'.

The ban of the niqab, a veil which leaves a thin slot for the eyes, has caused some female students enroll at different college. [sic]

News of the policy, which also requires students to remove hats and hoodies, was broken to those who were starting at the college last week.

Student Imaani Ali, 17, said her 'freedom had been breached' by the rule.

'Me and another friend who wears the veil were only told we wouldn't be allowed inside the college after we had enrolled,' she said.

'They haven't provided us with another alternative. We said we would happily show the men at security our faces so they could check them against our IDs, but they won't let us.

'It's a breach of my freedom and I feel discriminated against.

'This is my religion, it is what I believe in.

'I don't really want to go to a place that doesn't accept me but I have no choice now.'

Another 17-year-old girl, who did not want to be named, was so upset at the policy that has she decided to look for another college place in the city.

She said: 'It's disgusting.

'It is a personal choice and I find it absolutely shocking that this has been brought in at a college in Birmingham city centre when the city is so multicultural and so many of the students are Muslim.

'It upsets me that we are being discriminated against.

'I don't think my niqab prevents me from studying or communicating with anyone.

'I've never had any problems in the city before.'

Suleman Hussain, 17, is taking A-level science at the college and strongly disagreed with the guidelines.

He said: 'They're not going to bring a bomb to college. They have come here to learn.'

The strict policy was announced days after the issue of wearing religious dress was brought up in parliament.

Kettering MP Philip Hollobone, who refuses to see constituents who will not lift their veils, raised the issue in a Private Member's Bill, saying it 'goes against the basic part of the British way of life'.

Principal and chief executive of the college. Dame Christine Braddock, defended the policy, saying it had been in place for some time and had been developed to keep students safe.

She said: 'We have a very robust Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Policy at Birmingham Metropolitan College but we are committed to ensuring that students are provided with a safe and welcoming learning environment whilst studying with us.

'To ensure that safeguarding is a priority, we have developed our policy alongside student views to ensure we keep them safe.

'This needs individuals to be easily identifiable at all times when they are on college premises and this includes the removal of hoodies, hats, caps and veils so that faces are visible.

'All prospective and progressing students, as well as staff, have been advised of the policy, which will mean everyone allowed on the premises can understand and know each other in a safe environment.'

President of the Muslim Association of Britain, Omer El-Hamdoon, said the women at the college should accept the policy and abide by the rules

'Some feel it is part of their religion but they need to be practical,' he said.

'If you go to a bank riding a motorbike, you are required to take your helmet off and identify yourself.

'And when it comes to sitting exams there is also an issue surrounding identification, because the college needs to know who is sitting the paper.

'Some feel it goes against their freedom of expression, but they should abide by the rules that are part of society.'

Other students at the college, which has several campuses across the West Midlands, said the ban makes them feel safer.

Chante Young, 17, who is studying business, said: 'You don't know who is underneath it.

'You can't see any of their face - only their eyes.'

Anna Dorj, 18, who is studying business, said: 'I believe it is good for security. You can't see their face and it is hard to communicate with them.'

Ozayr Mir, 17, also studies business. He said: 'The rule is alright if it is for security reasons. They aren't being asked to show off their body parts.'

Two weeks ago, a judge told a Muslim woman she had to remove her burkha in court before she could enter a plea.

The 21-year-old woman refused to reveal her face because there were men in the room and it was against her religious beliefs.

Judge Peter Murphy said the principle of open justice overrode her beliefs, and warned there was a risk a different person could go into the dock pretending to be her.

So, a small victory for common sense in the face of Islamic supremacism, for that is what this is. A Muslim woman who chooses to don this preposterous, nasty item of clothing claims that it is an article of modesty, however, modesty is the disinclination to draw attention to oneself, to refrain from the attitude of 'Look-at-me-look-at-me-look-at-me! Am I not amazing?' These stupid women, who fail to appreciate the freedom they have, think that they are being pious, holier-than-thou, better than the rest if us kuffar. This is because Islam is innately supremacist with regard to non-believers, to wit:

You are the best of the nations raised up for men; you enjoin what is right & forbid the wrong & believe in Allah; & if the followers of the Book had believed it would have been better for them; of them (some) are believers & most of them are transgressors. Koran 3:110

O you who believe! Do not take the Jews & the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; & whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people. Koran 5:51

Surely the vilest of animals in Allah's sight are those who disbelieve, then they would not believe. Koran 8:55

And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah; & the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away! Koran 9:30

What! He who is obedient during hours of the night, prostrating himself & standing, takes care of the hereafter & hopes for the mercy of his Lord! Say: Are those who know & those who do not know alike? Only the men of understanding are mindful. Koran 39:9

O you who believe! Do not take My enemy & your enemy for friends: would you offer them love while they deny what has come to you of the truth, driving out the Messenger & yourselves because you believe in Allah, your Lord? If you go forth struggling hard in My path & seeking My pleasure, would you manifest love to them? And I know what you conceal & what you manifest; & whoever of you does this, he indeed has gone astray from the straight path. Koran 60:1

Surely those who disbelieve from among the followers of the Book & the polytheists shall be in the fire of hell, abiding therein; they are the worst of men. Koran 98:6

As these silly girls struggle along the street in their black sacks in the middle of August, they are making a statement, they are looking down on the rest of us & are expecting the rest of us to be looking up to them. What a shock it must be to them to discover that we are not.

This us why they are so disgusted. Thus is why they are so aggrieved. They have found out that our values & security are more important than their piety & their imagined supremacy.
