This incident is a major landmark in history expected to bring a self inflicted discrimiation against hijab-donning muslim women as they will now have to be screened in hospitals airports schools and perhaps their own mosques as well in order to ascertain sanity before admission . What a shame ! Taking civilization back to apeman age these terrorists . !
