Islamic Council of Victoria vice president Adel Salman is, as Muslim spokesmen always do, playing the victim, saying: “I think the judge’s decision is unreasonable and concerning. Women choose to wear it. It’s part of their faithfulness to God. To ask them to remove it is quite intrusive and, in some cases, can be traumatic.”
But that’s dishonest on many counts. No one will ever know how many Muslim women do not choose to wear it, but are forced to, and will be beaten or killed for not wearing it. Aqsa Parvez, a Muslim teen in Mississauga, Ontario, was murdered by her father and brother for refusing to wear the hijab. It is not a symbol of women’s rights, it’s a symbol of oppression. And obviously in court, a judge has to know who he is dealing with. Someone whose face is covered could be someone else in disguise. The Australian judge did the right thing, but watch for him to be attacked as islamofauxbic.
“Burqa Ban: Judge Expels Veiled Muslim Woman from Court for Refusing to Show Her Face,” by Simon Kent, Breitbart, February 8, 2018 (thanks to Todd):

An Australian judge has been called “unreasonable” for ordering the Muslim wife of an accused terrorist to remove her niqab and show her face while attending her husband’s trial.
She refused the request to remove the traditional Muslim face covering and was subsequently escorted from the building to sit outside while the case was being heard, the Herald Sun reports.
“I require anybody who comes into the court — and all are welcome — but anybody who comes into the court, for their face to be uncovered,’ Justice Beale of the Victorian Supreme Court said. According to the transcript of proceedings, the lawyer for the wife’s husband said she was “obviously not prepared to do that.”
A court spokesman told the newspaper that judges can decide who is allowed to sit in their courts.
Islamic Council of Victoria vice president Adel Salman slammed the ban by Justice Beale, saying it’s a violation of the woman’s human rights. He added:
I think the judge’s decision is unreasonable and concerning.
Women choose to wear it. It’s part of their faithfulness to God. To ask them to remove it is quite intrusive and, in some cases, can be traumatic.
Mr Salman said the court could have taken measures to overcome security concerns.
“If there’s any doubt about someone’s identity, a woman can be asked to step into a room privately with a female security person, remove her niqab, verify their identity,” he said….

I am not familiar with Australian courts. However, in the United States of America, most judges require no hats or caps, when court is in session. Even a baseball type billed hat, that fully exposes the face. I have seen judges hold someone in contempt, for not having it already removed upon her entrance. No escorting outside. No request to remove the hat. Just the bailiff walking the man to a holding cell.

We had a spate of special people refusing to stand/reveal their faces to the judge, because they ‘only stood for Allah’. Of course, no Muslim ever stood trial before then /sarc. Mainly they were just given in to, until new laws were passed, and now the occasional judge has grown a pair. Only a couple of the belligerent ones have been found guilty of contempt.by said judges. Victims? Of COURSE they are. It’s what they do best.

I saw a man, found in contempt, for not having removed a billed cap, prior to the judge taking the bench. Normally, bailiffs do a pretty good job of warning people before the judge’s entry. However, if anyone slips through the cracks, I saw a judge become outraged. She pointed at the hat wearing “offender” and immediately held him in contempt .. no warning … the bailiff removed the man and he was taken to a holding cell. I really don’t know what would happen if some thing was wearing a burka or niqab … Probably nothing, as that would make the judge a greasy racist islamophobe.

Yep. In the modern world, Officers and gentlemen take their hats off as they cross over the threshold going indoors. Failure to do so indicates the wearer is NOT an Officer or gentleman. If a 7th century primitive in pajamas wants justice in a 21st century court, they have to comport with 21st century dignity.

If there is no cooperation from person in the court room the judge is well within his rights to throw the bum out, so to speak. If being identified is traumatic for muslim women, then perhaps it will be better if they stay home, or reside in an islamic country. Trying to make the world submit to islam is a waste of time, as no one bows to grubs.

Apologize for what? Upholding the rules of his courtroom? If she wants the privilege of sitting in his courtroom, she has to follow his rules. She has no right to sit in his courtroom, there is no freedom of speech in a courtroom. You cannot speak out of turn or protest the proceedings. You abide by the rules laid down by the Judge. He & the others in that room have a right to see her face to be able to form opinions as to her character. Staring at a black cloth with a slit in it, tells you nothing about a person. I know she was not on trial, but have sat on juries. You judge the person on trial by also looking at the people who attend the trial on that person’s behalf.

First thing that needs to be recognized is that muslims need to obey the laws of the countries they are invading. They seem to have a sense of entitlement that their culture and their ideology is superior to that of whatever country they are planning to take over. The judge was perfectly in order to do this, however he is now going to be singled out as an “islamaphobe” and attacked by the forces of evil.

Islamophobia is a badge of honor in the age of FGM, honor killing, acid attacks, bachi boys, IEDs, and burkas. May porcine urine be upon them.
“Islam was not a torch, as has been claimed, but an extinguisher. Conceived in a barbarous brain for the use of a barbarous people, it was – and it remains – incapable of adapting itself to civilization. Wherever it has dominated, it has broken the impulse towards progress and checked the evolution of society.” ~ André Servier

The Muslim characterizes his arrogance and stupidity, in this case expressed as disrespect to the court, as “faithfulness to God.”

Filthy muslims bending the rules everywhere they go and demanding that the host countries accommodate to their backwards, incompatible, miserable and savage ways. And on top, there’ll be plenty of leftists and NGOs in the host country who will, rather than giving the boot to the offending muslim and its 37 immediate family-members, will actually make a big fuss about the whole nothing-burger issue, will condemn the innocent while applauding the offender and will bring it to court with the “islamophobia” charge ready at the tip of their tongues.

Great article but I wish it had gone further, addressing why muslima WITNESSES’ faces must always be seen; they’re always trying to be covered up when on the stand:
The reason one’s face must be visible is because, in our system of justice (and the USA as well as Australia have the same foundation, English Common Law), the jury is the sole body which judges the truth of the witnesses. They do that by watching the individual testifying; observing them-their looks, their facial expressions, their tone of voice and the hundred other “tells” which we all observe everyday in judging who’s sincere, and who isn’t. None of that can be seen with a face covered.
The same is true for this muslima; our peace officers are also highly observant; they are greatly skilled I think, in their ability to gauge an individual’s volatility. They have to be, for us, for themselves.
But of course all this is utter gibberish to muslims. Their “law” is utterly alien to our own. In the first place, lying is great (taqqiya); witnesses are irrelevant and a mere [male] accusation s the equivalent of a jury decision.
“Good on ya!”, Mr. Justice Beale: Keepin’ it real down-under.

You can cover your face with a veil, or put on makeup, even color your hair, but it’s still a disguise. There may be something cultural in wearing the veil, but nothing religious. There is no such mandate in the Quran.
Further, going into a Federal building, you have certain rules imposed. They won’t, or should not, let in anybody who they can’t identify. Most of these places (if not all) are gun-free zones. So, you have unknown people in disguise, who really could be either a man or a woman, and if they want to invoke terror, you would have no way to resist.
For public safety, wearing a facial covering as a disguise, should be illegal. We MUST be able to identify those among us who we know from those we don’t know, and you can’t do that with somebody covering their face. And, while this didn’t happen in the US, the same argument can be made all over the world.
