Choudary: Burqa ban can lead to bloodshed on the streets of Europe



Norwegian TV 2 visited London to interview Anjem Choudary. In the interview he says that a burka ban can lead to bloodshed on the streets of Europe.

Choudary: "This is something which the Muslims will see as a direct attack against their religion. The women will, I don't think, refrain from wearing the burqa and niqab in the public arena because they do as an obligation, and the men will defend them. And ultimately this could lead to bloodshed in the streets of Europe."

Amatullah Himayah, a niqab-wearing Muslim from London, is one of Choudary's students. She says that a ban on the niqab could lead to complete anarchy.

TV2 also filmed Anjem Choudary teaching other Muslims, and telling them that oppressing Muslims will lead to another 7/7 or 9/11 attack.
