For some years my position has been that Islamic fundamentalism is now flawed after 1400 years of barbaric suppression of the female. With the advent of mobile phones, internet and social networking these far off female faces have seen"Western culture" and they want what they see and are prepared to go to any lengths to get it regardless of so many attempts to stop this trend by their own deaths, if necessary.
Islam will not concede to the women.
Considerably friction will occur now that East has met West so intimately.
"The architect of France's burka ban has been forced to deny claims he will convert to Islam to marry his secret Muslim girlfriend.
Eric Besson, the country's 51-year-old immigration minister, has admitted the relationship with Yasmine Tordjman, a Paris art student less than half his age.
But the hardline conservative threatened legal action when a website suggested the pair, who have set up home together, might marry, which under Islamic law means he would have to convert.
The revelation comes as Mr Besson - tipped as a future prime minister - spearheads a campaign against non-Christian religions and cultures swamping France.
He has called for Islamic head coverings such as the burka to be outlawed and wants potential immigrants to take French tests and swear allegiance to the Republic.
His policies apply particularly to those arriving from Muslim countries, who do not share the same values as France's predominantly Roman Catholic population.
Miss Tordjman, who is in her early 20s, comes from a prominent family of Tunisian Muslims connected to the country's former president, Habib Bourguiba.
Before Christmas, divorced father-of-three Mr Besson travelled to the North African country to meet her mother, prompting speculation he would marry in June.
But the Moroccan-born minister has released a statement stating that he 'deplores having to deny a conversion to a religion which I otherwise respect, I am very attached to the secular character of our Republic'.
He said he was considering suing news website Bakchich Info, on which the claims about converting appeared.
Mr Besson has already had his reputation called into question.
Last year his ex-wife Sylvie Brunel, 49, claimed he was unfaithful for 'five years before their marriage and 25 years afterwards'.
In a book, she said he had left her for 'a woman as young as our eldest daughter'.
Miss Tordjman's identity has only just been revealed."
