Coverups do not have to stop at necklines

Reader comment on item: Islamist Media Digitally Cover Up Prominent Western Women

Submitted by Prashant (United States), Mar 12, 2013 at 02:10

Dear Dr Pipes: While the Islamic digital media photoshops to raise neckline, it does not have to stop at the neckline; it might as well cover western women leaders with a full Burqa. With that a Condoleeza Rice, Hillary Clinton and Margaret Thatcher can all pass for each other and what can be better than that!
