Good for them. They aren't going to denounce centuries old worth of customs overnight but it's a start.

Actually, the modern tradition has only been customary since the late 1970s. In the 1950s and 60s, it was very rare in the Muslim world (with the exception of Saudi Arabia). It was banned in many countries until the Arab Spring when bans were lifted. The Palestinian Queen and the women of the Jordanian Hashemite dynasty do not wear any kind of head dress or face masks either.

Yea, but dem muzleems ruined our damn country! No more visible titties or bacon

Unfortunately though, people don't care for facts. Apparently in this world, you're either a racist muslim hater or an ISIS supporter who is using Taqiyya to secretly help muslims. Can't have an honest opinion on anything regarding Islam or Muslims without the left or right tearing you to pieces.
