A dangerous attitude of passive supineness in the face of the madness of extremist Islam. The inability to defend one’s traditions, even in the face of surreal demands. In Austria, the head of a daycare center requires her employees to wear modest clothing so as not to disturb Muslim parents. In short, a step (albeit a short one) back to the obligation to wear the burqa. An issue on which the MEP of the League, Silvia Sardone, promptly intervened. “A story that relaunches this trend of doing good, which is growing throughout Europe and in schools, to push forward measures, policies and ideas that deny our freedom to accommodate Islamic communities. As a woman, I find it disconcerting to invite employees of a school structure to dress modestly so that the parents of Islamic students do not feel uncomfortable. It is a blatantly wrong way of approaching integration: instead of introducing newcomers to our way of life, our values, our beliefs, we end up bowing to their customs and traditions. even embracing their model of oppressed women”, declared the League MEP.
“In Italy, a few months ago, we saw a school in Abbiategrasso offering a course on how to wear the Islamic headscarf. Soon, some school administrators will be asking teachers to wear the headscarf so as not to offend Muslim students. While defending women, the tendency of the left and supporters of political correctness is to give in to the vision of a submissive woman who must cover herself,” he continued. The representative of the League then pointed the finger at the inaction of the Old Continent. “The growing Islamization in Europe is increasingly a danger because it is slowly erasing our identity and making us distance ourselves from our rights, our values and who we are. In this context, the silence of the left and feminists on the conditions of Islamic women is embarrassing and represents a clear signal: there are those who are willing to negotiate women’s achievements in order to gain the consensus of Islamic communities.”
