No coercion in Islam Take 2

Ms Leslie, who was criticised for wearing traditional Muslim dress during her trial, said she never intended to offend the Islamic community.
"I am a Muslim and I do understand the significance of wearing the burqa," she said.
"I should have thought more carefully about wearing it in that situation and I apologise for any offence I have caused, it was an extreme situation."
Ms Leslie said she chose to wear the burqa because it was a "sign of public privacy and modesty".
Ms Leslie was back at work (modeling) recently and still no sign of the hijab.
So what happened to the conversion to Islam?
Surely there are many similarities between the two Fox journalists' gun point conversion to Islam only instead of a gun it was the fear of gaol time and exposure to other inmates.
Is this any different?
The coercion by force to Islam for gaining freedom rears its ugly head yet again. Get Religion has a good take on this and where the actual idea came from - Rev. Canon Andrew White an Anglican leader at the Foundation for Reconciliation in the Middle East - shame, shame, shame.
