Scouts in Burkas

Muslim Scout adventures
OMG!  I'm just listening to a report on BBC Radio, here in Hong Kong, about the Scouting movement in the UK, which has decided that it need to "appeal to the Muslims", to bring in more "ethnic minorities" into the Scouting movement, has designed a uniform for Girl Scouts that has a veil, and "modest" dresses.

Now I've seen Scouts, boys and girls all over the world. Last year when I did a trip from Cape Town to Cairo, we saw Scouts all over Africa. I see them here in Hong Kong, and throughout Asia. What I notice about these is that the uniform is the same all over the world, not matter what the country, what the religion.

It's only for Islam that there's seen to be the need to bend to their requirements.  More of what we see in the broader society: bending to the needs of Islam.  I wouldn't mind at all if those needs, demands, were for mores which improved society in some way.  But that's not the case in, say, the Sharia Courts in the UK, which have been shown to be bad for women and children, or for women's rights, or for upholding of free speech (blasphemy laws and the rest).  Islamisation is an objective negative for the west...

Oh dear....

"Be Prepared"; the Scout's motto.  Be prepared for more Islamisation...
