[via Atlas Shrugs] Is it really possible that a Western woman could be fired from a Western company in a Western country for not submitting to Islam?
A BRITISH air stewardess was sacked for refusing to fly to Saudi Arabia after she was ordered to wear a traditional Islamic robe and walk behind male colleagues.
Ashton, 37, who was worried about security in the country, refused to fly there, claiming the instructions were discriminatory. She was sacked last April.
“It’s outrageous. I’m a proud Englishwoman and I don’t want these restrictions placed on myself.”
There must be more to this story. If not, it is disgusting. What are the odds that “woman’s rights” groups are going to remain perfectly silent in the face of the biggest threat their gender has ever faced (Islam)?

What is sharia law?
Sharia law is Islamic law. While there are different interpretations of it, the Taliban’s strict interpretation forbids women from being seen in public without their husbands and fathers, requires veils for women and beards for men, and bans music and television.
Consequences are severe; during the Taliban struggle to impose sharia law, anyone found disobeying was pinned to the ground and lashed. Others were beheaded and hung from poles, with notices attached to their bodies that anyone daring to remove the corpse before 48 hours had passed would also be beheaded and hanged.
