In Dagestan, which is overwhelmingly Muslim, one can acknowledge that the niqab poses a security risk. But to say such a thing in the West would be racist and “Islamophobic.”
“Islamic authorities in Russia’s Dagestan ban full-face veil after attacks,” Reuters, July 3, 2024:
MOSCOW, July 3 (Reuters) – Islamic authorities in Russia’s mostly-Muslim North Caucasus region of Dagestan on Wednesday temporarily banned women from wearing the niqab full-face veil, after simultaneous attacks targeting churches and synagogues killed 22 last month.
In a statement posted on the Telegram messenger app, the Dagestan Muftiate said it was introducing a “temporary” ban on the niqab after an appeal from Russia’s ministry of nationality policy and religious affairs.
Reports following the attacks on June 23 said one of the gunmen had planned to escape wearing a niqab.
The muftiate, a religious organisation representing Dagestani Muslims, said that the ban would remain in place “until the identified threats are eliminated and a new theological conclusion is reached”….

Regardless of what I might think of Putin, I remain impressed by how in Dagestan, it’s the islamic authorities that have imposed the ban on the veil, rather than the secular authorities. In the West, no islamic clergy would be as accommodating

Meanwhile, in ‘the West”, Muslims and their useful idiots support even burqa-clad Muslim women’s right TO wear that garb.
"Ted Anderson says
islam- is a Globally destabilizing ideology and crime inciting belief system that is a Threat to civilization.
Islam has No place in today’s society as adherents have a warped World view and hostile mentality towards others who wont follow it.
Proven by agenda of dar al islam/ dar al harb.
Muslims are also Parasites on Host Countries at taxpayer expense.
People are cowed by muslims showing No Spine to speak against them.
