It's not wearing a burqa or chador. Does this help answer your question?

As near as I can figure from these pictures, Eid al-Adha is sort of like Sadie Hawkins Day.

Does that also include uses kids as suicide bombers and receiting hate about Jews and Christians? What a sad joke their "religion" is.

Personally I think they just like to kill. Last time it was people (WTC) and this time it's sheep. Next time it'll be people again. There're nothing more than a bunch opf ruthless murders.

Of course, if these were Christians or Jews who needed the animals for food or clothing, the PETA liberals would be screaming

But, since this is the "Religion of Peace" [sic] , and the protected religion among liberals, nothing is said if they slaughter sheep for animal sacrifice rites

Oh, the reason Palestine Pete is stuffing his ewe in the trunk.....I think the ewe's parents didnt approve of her new boyfriend...she is sneaking out from the herd
