Taliban Burqa Women Raise the Bar: Concealing the Human Form
Hyper-modest, Hyper-Orthodox Taliban Burqa-clad Jewish women in the Mea-Shearim neighborhood of Jerusalem have raised the bar on their attempts to hide themselves when going out in public.
MyNet/Yediot Yerushalayim reports that a new trend is emerging in which the Burqa women place a cylinder on their heads beneath their burqa, to further conceal their human form. (see photo below of the Burqa woman on the left)

MyNet Reports:
According to a source, close to the group of Burqa women, “the more stringent of the women decided that the burqa veil is not enough, because it still shows the shape of the face. The solution found is a tube that they wear over their heads under the veil so you can not identify the shape of their face.”
Israel’s Ultra-Orthodox rabbis and even the most stringent in the Orthodox community have came out against Burqas. “We warn the wives and daughters of Israel, that they should not be drawn into this. These customs spell doom and destruction, G-d forbid,” reads the letter issued. “This is a group of women who have uprooted “Daas Torah” from Israel — their behavior is against the Torah and is uprooting Jewish education and Torah from Israel. They are endangering the health of their offspring, as well as placing them in danger and the fear of death”.
