Fordómar gagnvart "slæðukellingum" í strætó

Dagurinn byrjaði ágætlega; vaknaði tímanlega, ekkert stress eða vesen að koma krökkunum í skólann og ég var mættur út á stoppistöð alveg nokkrum mínútum áður en vagninn minn kemur, heppilegt að það var logn og bara fínasta veður (svoldið kalt reyndar) fyrst ég þurfti að bíða.

Og þar sem ég sit í makindum og góni út um gluggann, ryðjast ekki inn tvær konur (augljóslega útlendingar, voru alltof mikið dúðaðar miðað við árstíma) á næstu stoppistöð, huldar í einhverskonar kufla frá toppi til táar, með slæður á hausnum þannig að aðeins andlitið var sýnilegt.  Ég þykist nú vera ágætlega umburðarlyndur maður en get ekki neitað því að allskonar neikvæðar hugmyndir helltust yfir mig. 

• Hvað ef það væri falinn hryðjuverkamaður undir kuflinum?
• Hvað ef þær væru með sprengjubelti eða bara dúkahníf?
• Ætluðu þær að gera árás á samgöngu kerfi Reykjavíkur og lama þar með strætókerfið?  (Hugsa sér að þessar tíu hræður í vagninum þyrftu að finna sér annan fararmáta á morgun til að komast í vinnu eða skóla, hræðilegt)
• Ætli konur fái að ganga um í bikiní í þeirra heimalandi?

Óöryggistilfinningin magnaðist bara þegar þær settust svo beint fyrir aftan mig, gott ef það var ekki einhver fýla af þeim.  Getur þetta lið ekki bara verið heima hjá sér?

Hélt að það væru búið að leggja niður öll klaustur á íslandi, en sé þessar tvær nunnur stundum í strætó.

ps. Tilraun til kaldhæðni, ef einhver skyldi ekki fatta.

góður, ég get aldrei að því gert að skella upp úr þegar ég sé nunnur, það er dæmi um fólk sem er algerlega búið að klúðra sínum málum

Kristnar nunnur hafa ALDREI sprengt sig og drepið fjölda fólks..

En hér er frétt frá því fyrra..

Múslimakerling sprengir sig í loft upp og drepur 39 í Baghdad

BAGHDAD - A female suicide bomber attacked a group of Shiite worshippers near a mosque in Karbala on Monday, killing at least 39 people and wounding 54, officials said.

The worshippers were gathered at a sacred historical site about half a mile from the Imam Hussein shrine, one of the holiest sites for Shiites.

Karim Khazim, the city's chief health official, said the 39 dead included seven Iranians.

Police said the attacker was a woman but provided no other immediate details. Karbala is located about 50 miles south of Baghdad.

Police closed the area around the twin golden dome mosques and blocked all roads leading to the sites. The site includes tombs of Imam Hussein, the Prophet Muhammad's grandson who was killed in a seventh-century battle, and his half brother, also a Shiite saint.

Ali Hassan, 30, a clothing merchant who was wounded in the blast, said he was standing near his stall "when I heard a big explosion and I felt strong fire throwing me in the air."

"The only thing I know is there was a big explosion and I saw bodies flying in the air," said Hassan Khazim, 36, who was wounded in the face. "All the tight security measures designed to protect us were in vain."

Separately, a roadside bomb killed two U.S. soldiers Monday as they were clearing a route north of Baghdad, the military said.

The violence came as Vice President Dick Cheney and Arizona Sen. John McCain made overlapping visits to the capital, touting recent security gains and promising to uphold a long-term military commitment to the country so long as al-Qaida in Iraq is not defeated.

Explosions also struck earlier Monday not far from Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone, shortly after Cheney arrived. Helicopter gunships circled central Baghdad, but no other details were immediately available on the cause of the explosions.

McCain, the presumptive Republican candidate for president who has linked his political future to military success in Iraq, met Monday with Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki shortly before the Iraqi leader began separate talks with Cheney.

Al-Maliki said he and the vice president discussed ongoing negotiations over a long-term security agreement between the two countries that would replace the U.N. mandate for foreign troops set to expire at the end of the year.

"This visit is very important. It is about the nature of the relations between the two countries, the future of those relations and the agreement in this respect," the prime minister told reporters. "We also discussed the security in Iraq, the development of the economy and reconstruction and terrorism."

McCain stressed it was important to maintain the U.S. commitment in Iraq, where a U.S.-Iraq military operation is under way to clear al-Qaida in Iraq from its last urban stronghold of Mosul, 225 miles northwest of Baghdad.

"We recognize that al-Qaida is on the run, but they are not defeated," McCain said after meeting al-Maliki. "Al-Qaida continues to pose a great threat to the security and very existence of Iraq as a democracy. So we know there's still a lot more of work to be done."

McCain, who arrived in Iraq on Sunday, told reporters that he also discussed with the Shiite leader the need for progress on political reforms, including laws on holding provincial elections and the equitable distribution of Iraq's oil riches.

At a news conference with U.S. Ambassador Ryan Crocker and Gen. David Petraeus, the top commander in Iraq, Cheney said that given the nearly 4,000 U.S. troop deaths and billions of dollars spent on the war, it is very important that "we not quit before the job is done."

Cheney credited reductions in violence to President Bush's decision to deploy an additional 30,000 troops to the war zone. He said one of Bush's considerations in whether to draw back more than the 30,000 before he leaves office will be whether the U.S. can continue on a track toward political reconciliation and stability in Iraq.

"It would be a mistake now to be so eager to draw down the force that we risk putting the outcome in jeopardy," said Cheney, on an unannounced visit to Iraq. "And I don't think we'll do that."

Violence has dropped throughout the capital with the U.S. troop buildup as well as a Sunni revolt against al-Qaida in Iraq and a cease-fire by radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr's Mahdi Army militia.

The U.S. military has said attacks have fallen by about 60 percent since last February.

McCain, the senior Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, was accompanied by Sens. Joe Lieberman, an independent, and Republican Lindsey Graham, two top supporters of his presidential ambitions. The weeklong trip will take McCain to Israel, Britain and France.

Police said they found the bodies of three members of a U.S.-allied group fighting al-Qaida in Udaim, 70 miles north of Baghdad. Members of the mostly Sunni groups have been increasingly targeted by suspected al-Qaida members seeking to derail the recent security gains.

A bomb in a parked car in Baghdad's central Karradah neighborhood killed three civilian bystanders and wounded nine, police said, while a separate roadside bomb in eastern Baghdad killed one and wounded three others.

Vá, hélt að allir myndu fatta þetta en.. nei.

LS, ég vildi aðallega benda á líkindi með burka og klæðaburði nunna, sem engin (nema kannski ég) virðist pirra sig yfir. 

Skondið að það sé kúgun að múslima konur gangi í svona kuflum með slæður en svo þykir það sjálfsagt, og jafnvel aðdáunarvert, þegar nunnir klæðast samskonar skrúða.

Rétt að ég hef aldrei heyrt um nunnu sprengja sig í loft upp, væri reyndar fróðlegt að googla það, en nunnur hafa drepið fólk.  Bara nýlega man ég eftir að nunna tók þátt í morði á einstakling sem komið hafði að henni í kynlífsathöfn með presti (gott ef þeir voru ekki tveir).

Konur, almennt, eru alveg jafn færar um að myrða og karlar.  Skil ekki alveg hvað þessi frétt kemur málinu við.
