Fears Growing About Islamophobia Being On The Rise: No Surprise?

[gl556tr]

It seems that anybody with the power of good public speaking + charisma can inculcate 'his' masses to follow 'his' interpretation of the Koran. In this modern day and age, to be confronted with a non-descript figure covered in a tent-like apparel with a slit for visual orientation certainly raises the hairs on my neck and, simultaneously, the sub-conscious queries re-surface: if such people wish to dress so and be accepted as a norm, then surely they should settle in lands that see this as so. __I'm sure that many women who follow the Islamic religion have resorted to wearing this garb in recent years more as a form of protest; they seemed less noticeable in days gone by. But, they would find themselves better accepted into the society they have joined when they clothe themselves normally. After all, the majority of the indigenous UK population do so -- and individual religions are never prominently displayed. Or does the hadith have influence?

I have a pretty good handle on who's who in the ME, khandro.
I'm just saying that the few Syrian immigrants I've seen interviewed have been Sunni's, so I assumed the majority were.
Probably academic where Germany's concerned. I heard the majority of Syrian asylum seekers ain't Syrian.
