If I can just post a couple of things without completely hijacking the thread-
The other day, British Muslims demanded changes to British foreign policy, claiming it was "alienating" them. Today, the same Muslim groups not only demanded new public holidays relevant to Islam, but also the creation of new Sharia laws with regard to family values.
Okay...off my soapbox now....

perhaps it is time for the british to make some demands of their own, starting with a demand for consistency, at the very least.

an invasion in slow motion is still an invasion. if a german invasion was unacceptable to the british, one would think this one would be also.

Perhaps the Brits need to be like the French and start with head scarves?

if the reverse were true, it would never happen nor would people be allowed to raise the subject. the western world needs to gain some backbone.

They do seem to use the West's propensity for tolerance against it, don't they?

while we're waiting to get a strong backbone we'll just have to rely on the fact that we have inter continental ballistic nuclear missiles and could wipe out the Arab world without leaving the office

Katyusha 0
