Daleel Deeni Right before Sultaana Freeman sued, there were 2 cases in the Florida news about Muslim women being denied a picture with a headscarf only in their Florida driver's license and Florida state ID card.

I admire Sultaana for standing up for her beliefs and want others to know that if she ultimately loses, then other religions (christianity, judaism) in America lose some important rights as well. Unless we consider terrorism to only be a muslim act, and we know that terrorist acts are done by persons of all faiths.		 6/29/2003
