These women who claim to be wearing niqab of their 'own free will', are empowering and encouraging their Imams and families who tell their unwilling women folk to wear one as a 'religious' requirement. 
    There is nothing religious about it. This is all Arab cultural enforcement on the Muslims world-wide.
      The unwilling ones, you think will say that outright to a reporter if they are being forced, and get into trouble at home?
   Who are you kidding?
And have we not learned anything from what is happening in the UK and France etc?
