UK: Queen won over by headscarf

Queen Elizabeth visited a mosque during her visit to Turkey, and donned a Muslim style headscarf:


Apparently she liked it so much, since she's wearing it back in Britain as well. What joy.


Yes, this is not to be taken seriously. But with all the focus on the Queen wearing a headscarf when she entered a mosque in Turkey.. I just couldn't resist ;-)

The question is why visit a mosque?

Do the leaders of these countries allow Churches in their country? Do they respect our religion.

And why should the queen of England wear something to show her respect to Islam? Why the submission to these abject values of Islam?

I strongly suspect that Sam is a muslim writing with a Christian name. Hindus and Christians are treated absolutely shabbily in Pakistan and other muslim countries. They do not enjoy any religious freedom. For muslims the theory is when in majority impose theocracy and when in minority demand secularism. Hinus and Buddhist have suffered the most and we are the only two communities which are resisting Islamic aggression. All the temples and most of the churchhes in Pakistan have been demolished. Sam is prevaricating the truth. See the quote:

"Jamhooria Islamia", a monthly Baluchi magazine published from Panj-gar, published an interview with Maulana Nawabzadaa Nabiullah Khan, a confidant of and adviser to the Amir of leading Pakistani Islamic party, Jamaat-e-Islami, Maulana Qazi Ahmed, which was conducted by Jalil Amir. The following constitutes are excerpts from that conversation which reveals the fundamentalist ideology and designs of the organisation and its leader.

The following are excerpts:

NON MUSLIMS IN MUSLIM COUNTRIES MUST PAY JIZYA

Q: That brings us to the question of minorities. Will they have to pay Jizya tax?

A: Yes. They have to pay the tax. As explained by Qazi Ahmed , the idea of Jizya is not protection money. But it is a monetary force on the non-Muslim to convert to Islam. Once the Jamaat comes to power, the minorities will be induced (forced) to become Muslims either by monetary or psychological factors.

ALL INDIAN HINDUS WILL BE CONVERTED INTO ISLAM

JI is already equating India with Hindus so that the Hindus of Pakistan will be forced to become Muslims. This was a very successful strategy during the Babri Masjid riots. JI was actively involved in destroying the Hindu temples in Punjab and Sindh. We ordered the destruction of the Hindu family property too. But our main aim was to destroy the Hindu temples. We wrote in the JI pamphlets that destroying each pagan temple makes a Muslim move closer to the heaven of Allah. We used the Hadiths in all the pamphlets. Babar destroyed the Ram temple in Ayodhya because he was a true believer. The same way, every Muslim should take it upon himself to destroy the Hindu temples in Pakistan. O! ur idea was to encourage the Muslims of India also to destroy the Hindu temples in India. But this was not met with much success since the Hindu police in India started attacking the Muslims who were doing Allah's duty."

It is time the Christian west, the Hindu India and Buddhist China join together and demand reciprocal rights from the followers of Islam for their minorities and suspend fundamental rights to muslims till then.

yes i am a muslim bt i didnt write under a "christian name" sam is the short form for sameera u qoute all these ppl saying that nonmuslims shouls pay jizya bt didnt qoute any who said that they shouldnt.pakistan was formed to be a muslim state and the constitution doesnt say anything about jizya bt it does say that all pakistanis have equal rigths.in no muslim country today do nonmuslims pay jizya.the conditions under which jizya was paid were entirely diff and i should also say here that when the nonmuslims payed jizya they are exempted from compulsory milittary training and work.for ur "all hindus to muslims" thing ever wondered why that the muslims ruled over india for 400 years bt even then at the end of it the hindus were in majority??? nobody forced them to convert. a saying of mohammad (peace be upon him)is "theres no compulsion in religion" we all stand up for the rights of HUMANS.u want to see temples and churches in pak do come or ask someof ur friend there are plenty in pakistan where they celebrate holi and christmas and we celebrate it with them.u have islamphobia bro read karen armstrong

Muslims are incorrigible, compulsive liars. This is known by them as taqiyya & is encouraged as long as it serves to further the cause of Islam. [This moral outrage is in itself enough to disqualify this murderous, terrorist cult from any claims to morality or religious feeling]. Christians in Pakistan & Bangladesh have been persecuted for decades, churches have been regularly destroyed since the inception of these Muslim countries. Their populations have been decimated, with people voting with their feet to escape the domination of Islam. Those that do remain live in fear of avenging muslim mobs. A glance through many sites on the net will confirm this. Sam is a typical muslim two-faced liar.

yaeh that was really good only coz u cant give an explanation u call me a liar sooo who is ur "truth speaker" of the year or maybe the century George W Bush rigth go ahead .I dont wanna start a religious debate here bt better put ur nose in "a history of god" to know about who told lies. telling lies is not acceptable in islam bt only those muslims do this who are obedient to their lord.I feel bad for the nonmuslims treated bad ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD and will stand up for them bt i wonder if u care for the muslims dying in palestine or the not very muslim people killed in any other country burma,heroshima etc .call me anything bt i m not a liar i speak facts and logic u dont want to accept thats ur choice

After islam conquers a country it rewrites the history. The textbooks in Pakistan have been rewritten to claim the muslim invasion was peaceful when it fact millions of Pakistanis were killed or taken into slavery.
The Pakistan govt tried to introduce a bit of objectivity and pre Islamic history into the school curriculum but the religious police blocked it. According to the imams Pakistans
“history starts from Mecca and Medina.”
Just as Stalin tried to erase Trotsky from Russian history so islam tries to whitewash its imperialist past.

Anon May 26, 2008 9:50 AM:
Is interesting to see how you people always try quote the Holy Qur'an and of the SAME quote over and over again. Let me say this to you sir/ma'am.
Translations of the Holy Qur'an in languages other than Arabic are mere interpretations of the Arabic text that might contain biases and misinterpretations. There is no substitute for the Arabic Qur'an. The Qur'an possesses an external appearance and a hidden depth, an exoteric meaning and an esoteric meaning. This esoteric meaning in turn conceals an esoteric meaning (this depth possesses a depth, after the image of the celestial Spheres which are enclosed within each other). So it goes on for seven esoteric meanings (seven depths of hidden depth).
And that very quote you try quote all time is not in those words as you write them; (5) But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, an seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practise regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful. {At-Taubah (The Repentance): Qur'an 9:5}
Meaning, do not fight during the holy month of Ramadan, but when it passes, FIGHT! It also impiles, NEVER appear weak to you opponent. But if they surender, free them. This all ONLY impiles to religious wars, the kind going on with Palestine and Israel, not the kind going on in Iraq or Afghanistan, this kind of war is called Jihadd...another subject in depth.

LEt me help answer that question for you. The terrorist actions you see are done by an Imam or a well-known religious follower? Just because on calls himself Al Khalif, does NOT make him a muslim or one that knows and practises his religion FULLY! Because NO where in the Holy Qur'an does it instruct one to kill, slaughter or slay a fellow human being!
My point here is, yes most of the terror actions nowadays are claimed to be in the name of Islam, but I call for all the mature people out there....go and read about TRUE Islam and what it calls for! Get your knowledge from REAL sources not from media please!
Free your minds, don't be trapped but all those make believes...this is why the words "Islam's a religion of peace" is being said over and over again, because it condemns such viloence.

To explain the post: Yes, the Queen sometimes wears a scarf in England, and I think she always wears a hat. Also when she visited the mosque, she took off her hat in order to put on the headscarf, and afterwards put her hat back on.

I realize the other implications of donning a Muslim headscarf etc, but I thought it noteworthy. There is a debate about Western Europeans wearing headscarves when visiting Muslim countries (Iran, Saudi-Arabia), but in this case, I think that is not really the issue.

Sameera, muslims suffer from mental retardation since 632 AD , the year when the paedophile mass murderer rapist Mohd croaked. He left a legacy of vile hate,
murder obligatory called jihad, and to strike terror in the hearts of men . These can be found in the quran and hadiths. Muslims have yet to explain why there rae more than 100+ verses calling for inhuman violence and atrocities on non muslims. Muslims have yet to explain why they call the evil incarnate Mohd a prophet when he did not prophesy at all, and in fact admitted he was nothing but a messenger of his god allah, which by the way is a Sanskrit word.

Muslims are known to be greedy. Right now in Pakistan they harrass the Christian community with lies (allowed quranically under Taqiyyah) so they can drive christians from their lands, turn the church into a mosque. History is against Pakistan. So your al-taqiyyah will not work with us. When the bastard state of Pakistan was created by the treacherous British to punish Hindu India for wanting independence and thus depriving those parasites of sloth, insatiable greed - in this the Brits and muslims ahve much in common, that is why all muslim states are Brit's darlings, all failed states, cesspits given life by non muslims. I digress.
In 1947 your pork eating (oh how he loved bacon and pork sausages done to a turn) Jinnah proclaimed that Pakistan would be administered on secularism.
In 1947 the population was 50 million, 25% of whom were minorities comprising of Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Christians and others. At present it has dwindled to less than 2% whereas the muslim population in India are breeding like the rats they are, at will.

Right now in all the failed muslim states people of other religion suffer. The Copts in Egypt, the Palestinian Christians, The Lebanese Druzes/Christians, the Jews prevented from leaving Iran and the Bahai's , Zoroastrians persecuted, no bible reading, no christian gathering in Saudi Arabia that is the bode of Satan and his earthlings in the form of muslims, the list goes on. Who can forget the Beslan horrors? And Russia responded well. Chechnya was bombed to smithereens. Now peace reigns there. You speak of Palestine muslims? How come the word Palestine came into being only after the 1967 war when Israel whacked the hell out of 40 million muslims against a population of less than 5 million? Arafat, the Egyptian born insisted on being Arab all the time. And when King Hussein of Jordan took to the skies and murdered the riff-raffs, the rejects of Arabia called palestinians out from Jordan, after he had given sanctuary to Arafat and his parasitic hordes, there was no outrage from either the muslim or western world. When Kuwait threw out 500,000 Palestinians in the first Gulf war, no outrage either. But oh, Israel is not allowed to defend herself from muslim zombies conned into 72 virgins at the other end. Your allah has nothing to do but make virgins for deflowering?
He is a sex maniac god? Your heaven a bordello?

Your defence of the quranic "theres no compulsion in religion" - that verse was in Medina. In Mecca that verse was abrogated and replaced by 9:29 Fight against those who believe not in allah.....until they pay the Jizah with willing submission and feel themselves subdued. Islamic history is replete with atrocities when it expanded. So save your twisted excuses.

Mentioning muslim apologist writers does not work with us. This is the age of the Internet and Information and Research. So take your lies somewhere. Daily evidence is that not a day passes when muslims commit atrocity. The world should band together, we are still in larger numbers than your miserable 800,000 vermin lot, and don't bother giving inflated numbers of 1.5 billion - bollocks! the world should band together and make you an offer you can't refuse: Leave islam or Be Annihilated. And youwill, Soon. All signs point there.

Regarding jazia. It is no5t collected as such; but a Hindu/Christian can not start a business on his own. He should compulsorily have sleeping muslim partner. who is entitled to his share in profits even though his contribution to the firm is nil. This is jazia in another form.

In Pakistan Hindus are treated like slaves; all temples have been destroyed; Hindu girls are routinelu kidnapped and forcibly converted; kidnapping affluent Hindus is a big time business. In short in the belief structure of Islam, there is no space for other religionists.

This is what Winston Churchill said of Islam in 1899.

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities - but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome."

—Sir Winston Churchill, from The River War, first edition, Vol. II, pages 248-50 (London: Longmans, Green & Co., 1899).

And he has not sen the suicide bombers.

The headscarves for nuns seem to be highly troublesome for the muslims. The nun is profession and a particular dress has been designed, like the uniforms for army, police, nurses etc. It has no religious significance.

The rest of your comment is utterly confused, compounded by bad english and lack of spelling skills. It is difficult to comprehend.

How about this?

By a Muslim leader to Archbishop Giuseppe Germano Bernardini, the leader of the Roman Catholic community in Izmir, Turkey, who was told,

Thanks to your democratic laws we will invade you; thanks to our religious laws we will dominate you

Taliban Kill Journalist as She Sleeps With Her 8 Month Old Son...
I'm surprised these savages didn't kill her son as well. This is the second execution of a female journalist in five days.

Catholic Herald reported on 4.4.2007 that an Assyrian Christian mother unable to pay Jizya had her 2 year old boy taken away and later returned COOKED and SERVED on Rice!

AUSTRALIA'Stop Muslim cleric: Sydney-based Sheik Taj Din al-Hilali also alluded to the infamous Sydney gang rapes, suggesting the attackers were not entirely to blame.He said women were "weapons" used by "Satan" to control men.The leader of the 2000 rapes in Sydney's southwest, Bilal Skaf, a Muslim, was initially sentenced to 55 years' jail, but later had the sentence reduced on appeal.

A saudi-arabian father was forced to drown his daughter in a pool when her husband complained that she would not sleep with him. The muttawa witnessed and made sure the father carried the drowning out. She was 13 and the husband was 58. Sameera must sure be very proud of muslim legacy of Honor Killing!

. Wealthy Arab pensioners come to Hyderabad looking for pubescent brides to satisfy their paedophiliac lust, but these cases come to light only in the rare instance of a girl complaining to the police. In some cases, these men “marry” an underage girl, have sex with her in a hotel for a week, “divorce” her with a quick talaq, dump her back at her parents’ and fly home. The custom of getting girls married the moment they menstruate has made the predominantly Muslim city of Hyderabad in south India a favourite hunting-ground of rich, old Arabs in search of Lolitas. Most Indians still remember the 1992 scandal of Amina Fatima, 11, who was married to a 70-year-old Arab by her father, a poor auto- rickshaw driver. An alert air hostess on the flight between Hyderabad and New Delhi noticed Amina crying and on landing called the police. The wrinkled bridegroom was arrested, Amina sent back to her parents.


Sitting on the floor of her dishevelled home, the size of a broom cupboard, in Old Delhi, Bano recounts her precocious achievements. She was married at the age of 10 and had her first child when she was 11. Her daughter was 12 when she married and 13 when she had her own child, making Bano a grandmother at 24.Bano’s granddaughter also married at puberty and gave birth when she was 14 — thus Bano became a great grandmother at 38

Ayatollah Khomeini's sayings:
An Islamic regime must be serious in every field," "There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humour in Islam. There is no fun in Islam."

“A man can have sex with animals such as sheeps, cows, camels and so on. However, he should kill the animal after he has his orgasm. He should not sell the meat to the people in his own village; however,

“If one commits the act of sodomy with a cow, an ewe, or a camel, their urine and their excrements become impure, and even their milk may no longer be consumed. The animal must then be killed and as quickly as possible and burned.”

"A man can marry a girl younger than nine years of age, even if the girl is still a baby being breastfed. A man, however is prohibited from having intercourse with a girl younger than nine, other sexual act such as forplay, rubbing, kissing and sodomy is allowed."

On May 3,'07 in Gujrat, Pakistan, Muslims detonated a bomb at the gate of a girls' school. Their righteous wrath was raised by the notion that girls would learn to read and write. That too, they felt, is an insult to Islam
On April 28, US soldiers in Iraq discovered detonation wires across the street from the newly built Huda Girls' school in Tarmiya, north of Baghdad. They followed the wire to its source and discovered the school had been built as a deathtrap. The pious Muslims who constructed the school had filled propane tanks with explosives and buried them beneath the floor. They built artillery shells into the ceiling and the floor. To save the world for Allah, they decided to butcher little girls.

15 girls burnt to death in a school fire behind locked doors. They were trapped on the orders of the Saudi religious police who thought their state of undress might offend Islam

To save the world for Allah, they decided to butcher little girls.
That says about everything worth knowing about Islam.

We see the true colours of muslims in thailand, somalia, egypy, mauritania, indonesia, pakistan, afghanistan, iraq, palestine, iran, european countries, western countries on a daily basis. The list goes on. Against their own and against us. The muslim's false god sheds innocent blood because he is satan.

As for OIL. the whole of the Mid-East is an artificial construct. It is the DECENCY of western civilisation that allowed filthy arabs ownership. They can take it if they want to, and they will. The SHAME on muslims is that despite all that wealth, ALL 57 OIC states are failures, cesspools. Every time there is a disaster they reach out to the infidel nations for rescue, sustenance. So, whither your mighty allah?

Try as much as they pretend hiding behind the quranic "allah's best of men" muslims have proven, continue to prove they are parasites, beggars, failures, and a plague and scourge on humanity and the world in general.
