It could only happen in Sweden!
Topless ‘whores from hell’ arrested in Swedish mosque after shedding burkas
Three women from the activist group Femen entered a mosque and ripped off their burkas to reveal bare skin covered in anti-religious messages.
“No to Sharia! No to oppression! Free women!” the women shouted in English.
The reason for this action is explained on their Facebook:
.... there was a lot of purposes with the action in the mosque 29/6. The date was chosen because of what's happening in Egypt 30/6, as a message against the Islamic Brotherhood and islamization with stronger sharia-laws after the Arabian Spring. The action was led by Aliaa Elmahdy, and if you are not familiar with her story you can find it by google. Also Meriam from FEMEN Tunisia was part of the action, and she's a muslim against islamism, while Jenny from FEMEN Sweden is a cultural relativist against oppression.
One message is that our bodies are Our bodies, and not for anybody else to decide over in a oppressive way; for example in the name of religion or culture, or sexism. Human rights are priorities that comes before culture or religion. Our bodies are not for anybody else to feel ashamed, and we are not responsible for uncontrollable lusts in anybody else, etc.
Freya be praised! They did this thing on MY BIRTHDAY! which is the best birthday present ever!
These young women were arrested, of course, for disorderly conduct ... and the video coverage at Raw Story includes topless female nudity, prudes be warned.
