    Not something new in the Islamic world:

    "The witnesses said the militants shouted that they were protesting the mingling of men and women in the supermarket and demanded that female employees cover their faces, in keeping with a strict interpretation of Islamic law. A supermarket worker said the militants told them this was the final warning."

    I often wonder why there would be a single female that is Muslim...seems a bit counter productive, perhaps masochistic.

    dear tecoyah's, i think it's wrong to generalize your speach "not all moslems are bad", the extremist militans is very very small in islamic coutries, and their thoughts are rejected by most of moslems

    dear abbood86's....my commentary was directed at the reported actions of this "Very, very small" portion who fired weapons in a freakin' grocery store in an attempt to enforce the Islamic Laws stated in the faith. As well as any females that feel it is acceptable to be treated as less than human.
