I think you'll find that Bush would be very personally supportive of the notion of Hijab. If you have ever taken the time to come to an understanding about what his policies are and what he actually stands for as a person, you will see he has much more in common with Islamic Imams than people like Gypsy or myself.
Sexual assault happens the world over.
It has nothing to do with what the woman was wearing at the time.
HOWEVER - this whole tread seems to boil down to:
Men are animals who cannot be trusted around women.
Women need to know that even though the Prophet told men not to rape women, they will, so it's up to the women to cover her body to prevent rape.
Hijab cannot prevent rape, because assuming that rape is the logical by product of sexual desire is false.
Try telling the wife whose husband fored her to have sex with him against her will that this was because she didn't cover up enoguh.
Try telling the teenage girl whose uncle raped her that this was because she didn't cover up enough.
Try telling the Sri Lankan maid who was raped by her employer that this was because she didn't cover up enough.
If you're all going to make grand sweeping statements about the causes of crime, I suggest you take the time to read criminology studies about the true statistics regarding rape.
Salax,
