signalsComing To A School Near You

Remember the French trying to ban the burka that I wrote about awhile back? Now comes a way to go International! So it's a niqab, or face veil, it leaves only the eyes exposed.
If you caught my comment about schools and religion in the burka entry, you would wonder if this wasn't a planned move to claim religious insensitivity and discrimination. Perhaps the Catholic school did go a bit too far, after all we are trying to teach kids diversity. But one has to wonder about events that seem staged.
From the article:
Schools have been allowed to restrict the wearing of veils after two key judgments in 2006 and 2007.
Classroom assistant Aishah Azmi and a 12-year-old girl lost their legal battles to wear veils in class.
Ministers opted against an outright ban, saying it was for individual schools and councils to decide
