Interview: Burqa'd 18-year-old Sumaya can't listen to music, her husband says

The interview was made by a Spanish newspaper to her husband, who says she has wore a burqa all her life. When the photographer took her photo, Sumaya didn't utter a word.
Q: Does your wife like her life in Navarra? What is the kind of life she leads here?
A: (He is silent) She is religious. She likes very much to read the Koran. We go to the mosque. I have brothers here who come to help. She is with me.
Q: Does Sumaya have any hobbies?
A: She likes to cook, especially fish and tortilla.
Q: And the music?
A: No. .. she can not hear music. It's prohibited because most of the songs express bad words.
Q: Do you walk together down the street?
A: When she was pregnant almost every day. Yes, arm in arm.
Q: Isn't Sumaya lacking nature's experience with all senses? For example, fresh air in the face ...
A: The burka has small holes. The air can enter through them. For example, if we are in the country alone, she goes behind and discovers herself.
Q: Can she go out alone?
A: (He doubts for a few seconds.) If she wants to buy something, of course she can, but must be accompanied by her husband, father or son when she travels. The husband is the one who orders here. We are those who bring money home. In our religion we all have our work. And our women are to be at home. They have to explain to our children the religion. So we leave our wives at home.
The rest of the interview here.

They were able to publish this interview in Spain without being censored for "islamophoooooobia"? Maybe there's some hope left for Spain at least.

I am from Spain, we are screwed:

1) One of the lowest birth rates in the whole world (look it up, frakking unbelieveable)
2) 95% of spaniards are Sheeple
3) We have an entitled communist government (disguising as socialist), who were voted in by nepharious means, then re-elected by the sheeple

Luckily I live abroad, but I am afraid where I am now is only 10-20 years behind what is happening to Spain.

It will take a revolution and several generations to fix the damage done to Spain; nothing is going to stop Spain from its present free-fall into Dar-al-Islam, unless there is an armed revolution, someting I think is extremely unlikely to happen (although not impossible, but close to it).

Yes, and the same thing is happening here in America, despite what that dumbass Charles Krauthammer says.

My observations:

1) 95% of people in Spain and US are sheeple
2) A very, very small minority (1%, if that?) are the enablers and actioners of Political Correctness
3) More than 5% of the population seems to be strongly against P.C.?
4) How come the 1% of idiots are the ones running the show? What are we 5% doing wrong?

Thanks Pastorius.

Avenging Apostate: Yes, he is very honest. We have to recognise that...

revereridesagain: Yep, and the comments are overwhelmingly in favour of a burqa ban.

Anonymous: there is another observation to make. Nationalist governments in some communities (for example, Catalonia) had supported non-Spanish speaking immigrants to make them learn Catalan. They thought that if South American Spanish-speaking immigrants were allowed entry their nationalistic ideas weren't going to to be supported.

The result is that of 60 judicial processes open in Spain against Jihad supporters 40 were in Catalonia. And of course, Pakistanis in Barcelona don't speak Catalonian nor Spanish and 25% of the mosques are Salafist while another high percentage are supporting Tablighi Jamaat, according to different sources.

Low birth rates: there are several factors to that result, but I fear that one is that the important change suffered in Spain from a very traditional Catholic society to a supposedly very modern one, has not been really digested by society. That can be also said of any other recent development in Spain, including the election of Zapatero as President.

What are we doing wrong? I have been asking myself the same question, although I fear it has nothing to do with us, it has to do with the situation. Everyone lives reasonably well, so why making any move which could hinder that comfort?

That's why I am worried with the effects of the economic crisis. There have been cases of pensionists attacking immigrants in some supermarkets of Catalonia because the latter get aid from the Local councils to buy what they need, while the pensionists don't (I don't have any link to that, someone told me about it and I really believe this person). If an old man can get to punch someone in the face because he doesn't get benefits immigrants get, what would happen when unemployment benefits are ended because there is no money?

And that moment isn't so far...

(By the way, an important part of those old pensionists have voted socialists, because they promised them pensions won't stop coming if they won. Now, the pensions' system is broken practically. Aznar left it with superavit and with another aditional fund of 20,000€ in case there were problems. Just imagine how much these guys have spent in the 6 years they have been in power).

Sorry for the long comment... :(

Claudia,
It seems to me a positive development that, if the government will not take care of it's citizens, the citizens show a willingness to take matters into their own hands, even using violence.

Violence is how we won our rights in the first place.

Violence may be how we have to go about re-establishing our rights.
