Michelle Obama in Saudi Arabia

Post by SooMaal11 »

There is so much outrage on twitter because Michelle Obama didn't veil herself in Saudi Arabia.

She stood her ground although yes maybe she should've to respect their culture/religion. But I applaud her for sticking to her beliefs as well.

There is no compulsion in religion and theres something called lower your gaze that many sideline.

You can see her shaking hands with a few men but others decided they didn't want to. That's the way that it should be.

I knew that Lady Obama was a tough woman when she prevented her husband from sitting next to the Danish prime minister.

Exactly, people make it seem like it's never happened before. If she was to wear a hijab people would say the Obamas have been low key Muslims whole time.

That's disrespectful of Mrs Obama. She would have looked ugly without her hair showing though! Hijab is not for her. She has this apple type cheeks that perk up when smiling or not smiling. I don't like those cheeks, makes her look older than she is.

Supposedly its actually Saudi Arabians who are mad over twitter. They're the ones embarrassing us and making Muslims intolerant although majority aren't.

the next time I hear a muslim get mad at a non-muslim NOT wearing a hijab in a muslim country, I want them to say they support the BAN on wearing hijabs in France. you can't have it both ways. either you support people having freedom to practice their religon in peace or you don't. muslims for some reason only believe in freedom when it comes to them.

Yea she should've wore it out of respect for the host country. Even though there is no protocol requiring for foreign dignitaries to do, u still do it out of respect.

Mali

Your absolutely right we tend to have that selfish attitude.

I believe her and Obama went after their trip to India just for condolences.
