The True Face of Islam
When we stand in front of the wardrobe in the morning, we can choose anything we want to wear. No one has the right to make that decision for us. And neither should they. But right now in Australia, moves are underway to take that choice away from Moslem women. Some of our politicians want to ban the head-to-toe Burka. Already in other countries, restrictions have been placed on the traditional head scarf or hijab. It's all part of an international backlash against the Moslem community that's made the Islamic veil a symbol of fear and suspicion.

The True Face of Islam
Who is the real motivating behind Bilal Skaf who orchestrated attacks that would shake public confidence in the justice system, ignite racial tension and leave behind scores of women whose lives are damaged forever? Could be his family or Sheikh Taj el-din Al Hilaly or the quran and hadith? Sheikh Taj el-din Al Hilaly, a senior Muslim cleric has drawn criticism for reportedly preaching that some women are attracting sexual assault by the way they dress and their actions. Sheikh Taj el-din Al Hilaly is reported as saying that women who do not wear the hijab, or headdress, are like uncovered meat. In 2000, a series of brutal gang rapes took place in Sydney. The gang leader was 18-year-old Bilal Skaf, who with his brother Mohamed, organized the abduction and rape of four girls in three separate attacks, one of them lasting more than six hours. Up to 14 men were involved, with the youngest just 13. Even after they were caught, the rapists continued to harass the victims, knowing that without key testimony from a victim, police wouldn't have a case.
