According to Al Jazeera, the Netherlands are now the first country in Europe to completely ban the veil in public places.
To anyone who pays attention to the news, it's pretty obvious that there is alot of Islamic anxiety developing in Europe of late. It's been most obvious with the killing of Theo van Gogh and the recent hubbub over the cartoons of Mohammed.
Could this be a continuing trend? Prime Minister Tony Blair recently cited the veil as a
"mark of seperation."
