They should stay in their country and they can wear whatever they choose. They should respect the law of the land where they reside. Why did they left their country? For freedom....of what? They should go home if the culture is too important to live without.

When the Pope accidentally offended the Muslims by simply stating facts he had to apologise and take back what he said. Please could someone explain to me how it is ok for Al Queda to threaten and insult every individual, country and culture which is not the same as theirs. In every country in the world Muslims are free to build their mosques and practice their religion unhindered. In Muslim counries there is no such religious freedom - Christians may not build churches or practice their faith openly, Jews may not build synagogues and practice their faith openly. Those who choose to live a secular life are also curtailed, harrassed and insulted. How come it is one rule for them and another for everyone else?? Let France rule as it sees fit according to the laws passed by the democratically elected government.

Abu Musab Abdul Waded is throwing down the gauntlet over who has authority in France. It is to be hoped that the elected President of France, Nicolas Sarkozy, is up to the challenge.
