[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Muslima][quote=Anonymous][quote=Muslima]So, after Islam was practiced for over 1000 years in Afghanistan, women were forced to dress a certain way but Islam is to blame? Good thought process, good throughout process!! People got it wrong for over 1000 years....[/quote]

Could you explain a little more? This makes no sense, from any point of view. Sounds like you're trying to be sarcastic about Islam requiring women to veil for 1000 years in Afghanistan. But you can't mean that, can you?[/quote]

The opposite. Islam was practiced for over 1000 years in Afghanistan when that picture posted by the PP was taken therefore you can not blame Islam for forcing women to veil as they would have been wearing their niqabs and hijabs from day 1. Same thing in Saudi Arabia  where women before the 70s dressed differently.[/quote]

Huh? I'm not the poster who put up that picture, but surely her point was the opposite. Whatever you think of the Shah (and like others here, I don't think much of him), one of his defining things was [b]taking control away from the turbans so that women could dress as they wanted.[/b] Without a religious police to tell them to throw a chador over that miniskirt. Why do you think the mullahs hated the shah so much?[/quote]
That's not WHY  he took control away from the turbans.  He took it so he can have 100% of it himself.  That women could dress more freely was an unintended consequence.

Why don't you weep for Saddam, too?  Iraqi women under him never had to cover.  Religious minorities had a peaceful life. Especially the Sunni minority. (It's the Shia majority that got screwed).[/quote]

Good grief. Muslima was saying that because women wore miniskirts somewhere, that women can always wear miniskirts in Islamic countries. Obviously, she's wrong: they wore miniskirts in secularizing countries, not in Islamic states. Stop rambling on about Saddam.
