Yeah - That scarf law is really dignified.

Terrorism isn't something you can fight. The sooner people grasp that concept that sooner we can actually start fighting the CAUSES of terrorism.
Did you know that Jasen's middle name is Dignity?
The law that the French are wanting to make is disgusting. They're just reacting without any consideration for actual religious beliefs and not thinking of the Muslims as people; all they're seeing is the outward manifestation of the religion they've been taught to fear.
Not, of course, that I think the Iraqis are right in doing what they've done and I hope the French journalists are ok.

Yes, it's really a shame that they had to kidnap those French journalists... I mean, there are so many Italian journalists in Iraq, couldn't they kidnap and kill other Italian journalist? As Italians, they have no dignity. Let's kill them!
Germany and France have dignity? How'd you come to that conclusion?
To be honest, I think the French needed to institute the head-scarf law in order to remain impartial to all religions, as large Christian Crosses, Jewish skullcaps, and Sikh turbans have already been banned.

Because they didn't invade Iraq - they were too busy counting their backhanders from Iraqi oil.

Why should any of those things be banned in the first place???
Because France is a laic country

Thank you albyboy !
France does not appear to care too much about individual liberty for their citizens. What else do they ban? I heard France has a ministry to keep the French language pure. Is this true?

What do you know about France ? In france and in European Union we have certainly more liberty than anywhere else.
We are the country of the "human rights declaration" in 1789. France is laic, and anyone can choose its religion. Our president doesn't have his hand on the bible or the coran or anything else. We are all FREE.
For the french language, we just have a law who says that for example, in TV add, the foreing slogan must be translated somewhere on the screen (like 'Always Coca-cola' --> 'Toujours Coca-cola'); the aim of the law is just to protect a little the french language because today childreen don't speak very well.
Seb, a free french man
