She had to have known beforehand that she would be requested to wear the headscarf.

So what's your point? You think she should have submitted herself?

No. Tell them beforehand that you will not be wearing the headscarf.. if they still insist then you don't show up

Le Pen claimed the Lebanese cleric's office knew about her stance on head scarves ahead of time. She reportedly said:

“They didn’t cancel the meeting, so I thought they would accept the
fact that I wouldn’t wear one. They tried to impose it upon me.”


A statement by the mufti's office called her behavior “inappropriate,” and claimed the veil is just “protocol.”

At the end of her three-day visit, Le Pen told reporters that she considers the headscarf a “symbol of a woman's submission,” and drew upon an interesting contradiction she noticed. ABC reported she said:

“I note that when Marine Le Pen refuses to don the headscarf, it is criticized, but when Michelle Obama refused to do it in Saudi Arabia, it was considered admirable.”

The veil is just protocol signaling the fact that Muslim men consider all women their property to manhandle as they so choose, since they refuse to take responsibility for their lust.

Yes... Mags beat me to it again (I'm getting used to that).

Apparently, we, unlike the Dude, actually read the article. She told them ahead of time she would not wear it, and they tried to push her into wearing it when she arrived. She apparently actually HAS values and beliefs that she stands by, so she politely refused.
