In Islamist nations, where Sharia law is rigorously enforced, cruel punishment is often administered pursuant to a "punishment fits the crime" rationale. This results in such things as the hands of thieves being cut off. What penalties would apply to these women, were they to carry out their preferred method of protest in a Sharia-adherent Islamic nation? Just thinkin'...

These were in Sweden, Italy, Ukraine, Belgium, and France. I don't know about Ukraine, but I don't think Sharia law is enforced in those countries.
On the other hand, it seems there are a lot of people right here in this country that have some pretty screwed up notions about the human body, and the reproductive act, like all the anti-contraception laws that Huckabee and his sheeple are trying to pass. Just thinkin'
There is quite a bit of unofficial sharia in many European nations. In France, there are about 900 plus suburban communities called banliues for north African emigrants. They are no go areas for police, firemen, etc. The locals enforce sharia standards and run off shops selling alcohol and pork. In Sweden, their second largest city, Malmo and in the UK in London, there are similar urban communities.

YAHMON! WORD!
I see a 19-year old girl who demonstrated in Tunisia has her life threatened and is seeking asylum. Damed jehadim don't know a good thing when they see it.
I never understood a culture that wanted their women's faces covered. I guess what these ladies are doing really ****es them off.
I knew a Muslim, quite moderate, who studied the history of their religion, as well as Arab history. He said the Koran commanded women to wear something on the upper portion of their bodies, when Arab women were notorious for going topless. IAW, wear a scarf over boobies, not over the face.
