Since Judaism came first, and Marri...First of all. Since Judaism came first, and Married Jewish Woman must Cover their hair. I have NO idea why Arabs copied Judiasm with a woman's head covering and a man's without ever giving credit where credit is do, like a million other things they and others copy and live without giving credit to the Torah. ?! Annoying, to say the least.Evehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12106455722372804336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-10880196409789245832012-05-29T09:14:06.600+01:002012-05-29T09:14:06.600+01:00bull! as a whole there's hardly any attacks on...bull! as a whole there's hardly any attacks on Jews in Yemen,they are protected by government and tribesman.you need two to tango ,i.e Yemeni jews who wanted to upgrade their lifestyle and find suitors for their coming of age kids ,satmer jews who work as missionary in yemen and israeli no nothing do gooders who do not understand arebia . some of the jews from the north enjoyed overexposure by the media that was used by everyone, friend and foe alike. those folks should have been all settled in England with all the other yemenis.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-35616717962536873952009-11-04T14:01:06.007+00:002009-11-04T14:01:06.007+00:00Eliyahu,

I meant to say that Arab muslim women have probably been wearing those burkas for quite sometimes. You need to remember that Yemen is a strict orthodox muslim culture. I cannot tell exactly when this all started. Even if it was the expansion and effect of Saudi Wahabism, one has to wonder why Jewish women were wearing those veils and Burkas.<br /><br />I was implying that Jewish women were compelled to adopt those attires when present in public places. They had no choice on the matter, but to show modesty and adopt the head scarfs and veils and so on... To this I said that Jewish women were in effect showing humility and respecting the norms of Yemeni society by complying ... What can they do under islamic dhimmitude? Yemen is not Morocco, beleive me... I wish they had choice to wear what ever they want..sammishnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-71575896109350883192009-11-03T19:55:49.663+00:002009-11-03T19:55:49.663+00:00just a minute, Sammish. How do you know that Yemen...just a minute, Sammish. How do you know that Yemeni Jewish women traditionally dressed like that?<br /><br />I don't that the full burka and hijab outfit was traditional garb for Jewish women there.Eliyahu m'Tsiyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07973268399414290195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-231059760400947922009-11-02T18:25:28.858+00:002009-11-02T18:25:28.858+00:00Why weird?

After hundred of years of islamic dhimmitude no wonder jewish women are made to wear the same attires as the arab yemeni women. Why bring attention to yourself when all arab yemeni women at cover from head to toe. <br /><br />I think it is a sign of strength as well as humility and respect of the arab culture. Yet the arab culture shows no respect but only contempt and slander for their jewish compatriotes even if they dress like them, talk their language and share some of the habits. This goes to show that it does not matter what you wear. It shows that Yemeni jews tried adapt to the arabian culture while still retaining their jewish faith.sammishnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-56714659138245546312009-11-02T01:26:21.338+00:002009-11-02T01:26:21.338+00:00Not as weird as shaving your head and wearing a wi...Not as weird as shaving your head and wearing a wig made of someone else's hair.
