I would intervene if this happened in Ireland. In Ireland, Irish law prevails and this would be classified as an assault.
If I were in an Arabic country I would be less likely to get involved as I don't fully understand the law there (who does!!) and would be concerned that I could end up being thrown in prison.
I'd say the same as above i would diffidently intervene here and i would like to think i would try to stop it in a muslim country too but it could mean as other posters have said been thrown in jail for not respecting their culture no matter how wrong i might think it is.
Totally agree with the message, no one should ever be assaulted and yes, I have intervened in the past.
As for the dynamics of the video, we all give off signals.
Hey 'look at me' Hey 'don't look at me'
But by covering yourself, hiding yourself , are you not telling everyone, don't see me, don't interfere.? Is it understandable ?
Not that it makes it right, it doesn't, Muslim or non Muslim.
Ah, perhaps a harsh and overly simplistic observation on my behalf.
To answer the question, yes I would have intervened
I just admire the guys that make these fake and obviously set up videos for the money they make off it,gotta love the reactions they get and indeed the work they put into it.
exactly, they are covered in black for a reason, its the owners way of saying "shes taken, run along, don't even look at her, and if you do see her you really really had to be looking and sticking your nose in where its not wanted so prepare for the consequences!"
