    I had read about French-Algerian Actress Attacked and about France Moves to Ban Burqa

    I can explain the connection in one word and it RACISM.

    Location: France

    Victim: Muslim women get attacked and muslim women should take her Boura off.

    1. France Moves to Ban Burqa
    2. Muslim women are not accepted in France and they get attak from french people.

    Connection: Muslim Women are unaccepted in France.
