International ban on face covering is needed

I think that the international community should do something about the full face covering issue. How the heck do I know the person inside is a man or woman, or a thief or a wanted person. I think the West should never give visas to full face covering women. If they show their face in the passport then it is foolish to hide in public. I however respect face showing women that wear the head scarf in all religions. Full face covering is a threat to the public security in all countries including the langs of that phenomenon which are Saudi Arabia and Afghanistan..

Al mawdudi should have never been accepted to send his kids to the America, he is the father Mullah who dies to defend the Purdah. Shame on the authorities that let people like that enter the US easily while giving hard time to Canadian truck drivers who do 80% of their business with them..big shame!!
