Coming To America? Somalia, Brunei Ban Christmas To Avoid Damage To Muslim Faith
The governments of both Somalia and Brunei have prohibited public festivities celebrating Christmas saying that they could damage the Muslim faith. Of course, as we saw yesterday, this kind of suppressive, micro-aggression is already here in America (at Cornell University) but while Mistletoe and crosses are banned here, Brunei's Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah has banned "hats or clothes that resemble Santa Claus," fearing they could "provoke al-Shabab to carry out attacks."
