Iran - German women wear hijab in orchestra

Shame on them.

"The German orchestra, whose female players will have to wear Islamic headscarves to obey Iran's dress code, will be boosted by six Iranian musicians for the concerts.

The orchestra's directors were at pains to emphasise their visit would not stray into politics and was purely aimed at increasing cultural understanding between Iran and the West."


But since the hijab is a radical Islamic political statement and not a religious symbol, by wearing it the Germans did "stray into politics".
