On 17th January there will be big demonstrations in 25 countries all over the world against the ban of headscarfs in public schools in France.
The protests are organized from Muslim associations. But also left groups from Britain like GR call for participation on the protests.

Some worried people, lefties too just wonder because:
Is such ban a discrimination against Muslim faith ?
Many people and Muslims too in France mean, there is NO discrimination against the Muslim society in these case.
It was (some unspoken) law in France since long times, that public schools should be neutral in religious matters and that should be valid for ALL religions or atheists.
ALL religious signs will be forbidden for Christians, Jews, Muslims and others.
Where is there a discrimination ?

However, there also is another point to wonder?
There are big demonstrations against France and (Germany) in 25 countries all over the world organized in very short time now.

However, there were/are also big issues in the world for which - many people think - the Muslim society should care and protest in big demonstrations in 25 countries.
Problems like:
-- How is it in Bush's USA? Can Muslim teachers wear hijabs in public schools? Or vanish such people as terrorists in prisons?
-- What about the terrorist hunts against Muslims ?
or about Palestine - Where are the big demonstrations organized in many countries in short time?
Worried people think - it smells - it smells for clever, professional work - to punish countries which did not obey Bush's orders, and Muslim associations and some lefties are misused ?
Do protesters not support Bush ?
And is this the right side of the fence ?
