Islamists Threaten to Attack Belgium Over Burqa Ban
From Weasel Zippers:
(Reuters) - Belgian authorities are analysing a video containing threats to attack the country and other European states if they enforce a ban on full face veils, government officials said on Thursday.
Belgium’s lower house of parliament approved a bill last week that would enforce such a ban but it is unlikely to become law soon because the government has collapsed and parliament is due to be dissolved. France is also considering a ban.
A text written in English on a video posted on the Internet says: “If you ban the burqa, hijab or niqab (veils) … then you will see (a) very dangerous situation in your countries.”
It shows veiled women, some armed with guns, armed men and children carrying weapons and ammunition. They did not identify themselves.
Wearing the burqa, hijab or niqab is every Muslim woman’s right and governments will pay for their decision to ban the veil, the text of the video says- Muslims Threaten France With Terror Over Burqa Ban
