Description: With more and more women in Israel covering themselves from head to toe in black burkas, it would be a good time to look at what this phenomenon is all about. What are the roots of female dress in Islam historically? How is this affected by modern fundamentalist interpretation of the Koran and other Islamic writings? What are the implications for Muslim women?... And what about the small cult of "Jewish Taliban" that seem to be imitating the ways of Islam? Any basis in Jewish law for such uber-modest dress in Jewish women, married and unmarried alike? A look at the history and current status of the cult of Jewish "Veiled Women"... Plus...Some special Happy Hannukah thoughts... This edition of The Marty Roberts Show explores these questions. Marty also presents and documents the ideology and declared goals of the Muslim Brotherhood, both in North America and around the world... All this and more on The Marty Roberts Show
