Also in countries where Muslims are the majority there is total repression of all others. In countries where Muslims are the minority there is total non-cooperation and often organized terrorism.

As for the British pussyfoot speeches about terrorists coming in all shapes and sizes, religions, nationalities, races blah blah blah blah. Show me the money–i.e. all the Methodist, Church of England, Baptist, Buddhist, Catholic, Confucian, Jewish, etc. terrorists. In fact terrorists do come in two shapes–Timothy McVeigh and Muslims. Period.

Thanks for the info.

Oh I see SimomBarnett already made my above point, and more eloquently … sorry I’ll alert the “Department of Redundancy Department..” :)

I made that point yesterday, and nobody noticed. I’m going to go and find somewhere to cry now…

from AZ_Redneck
Someone forwarded this to me. I don’t know the origin, but curious if anyone knows.

That was from none other than Ann Coulter

I agree there’s plenty of “PC run amok” to go around, but in this particular instance, gramatically, isn’t Blears referring to the “victims” potentially coming from any background, etc.?

Why do the Brits have this love affair with islamists?

Blake on July 5, 2007 at 1:04 PM

It is a form of societal guilt for all the mucking up of the middle east that the British did early in the last century. Kind of like ‘white guilt’ over anything termed racist by the Politically Correct crowd here in the USA.

An example of uncontrolled immigration in Britain, if that’s how these imams are coming there:…

Whilst I’d be the first to admit that in terms of ministerial qualities Hazal Blears is not in the 1st tier – after 10 years in office “New Labour” have very few untarnished 1st team players, as evidenced by the appointment of Margret “bloody stoopid” Becket as our FO minister – her comments about any race or religion seem in context to refer to the victims of terrorim, and not the perpetrators.

That isn’t to say that people like “Red” Ken livingstone don’t trot out such morally relativistic nonesense with alarming regularity, just that in this instance I suspect that we may be judging her words in a context that they were not in fact meant.

his mother wouldn’t remove her headscarf in front of him

There’s your problem right there. He learned early on that people could be manipulated by the fear of his thunder-and-lightning-of-God. He should have been taught early on to fear his mother much, much more than Allah.

These terrorists don’t care who their victims are. They can come from any background, any race, any faith

I seem to be alone in this, but I read that to mean that their victims “can come from any background, any race, any faith”. There’s a lot of PC garbage that comes out of the British government, but I don’t think that this is an example of it.

“These terrorists don’t care who their victims are. They can come from any background, any race, any faith…” [ she added] …. “Islam is a religion that is about peace, tolerance and justice ….”

British Communities Secretary Hazel Blears

It sounds to me that Mrs. Blears is the kind of person that would tell you the Nazis and the Jews were responsible for the Holocaust. Are all of the British officials such reality deniers ? If they are, Britain doesn’t stand a chance in this struggle with Islam.

But there is a consistent track record in Islamofascis(ts/m) that is absent from domestic or Westernized terror. Which NBC and the BBC would, of course, rather overlook in the name of tolerance.

The sacred cow.

Terrorists can come from any faith…

”
…that has its roots in a misogynistic slaveholding pedophile’s raging homicidal vendetta against humanity.

Not that there’s anything wrong with it.

There is a much bigger point missed in all this. If 7 muslim doctors can decide to become terrorists and launch an attack, and they did, what then does that say about muslim airline pilots?

NHS doctors are paid like sh*t. That’s why the British gov’t can’t get any English doctors to work for them and must import them from the Mid-East, NO QUESTIONS ASKED! So don’t think they’re rich dudes with nice houses, blonde wives and swimming pools like here in the US. For all I know,Rageboy is an MD.

As for pilots, maybe they should give them a little raise, just to be on the safe side. I do seem to remember some EgyptAir pilot crashing his plane into the Atlantic off of Canada a few years back screaming Allah on the cockpit recorder. Perhaps it was a contract issue.

Maybe none of this has anything at all to do with Islam, and is merely a labor issue. Do we have a secretary of Labor who could help? What’s Linda Chavez doing these days?

Finally, I’m not all that happy with my own doctors. I’m starting to thing there’s more here than meets the eye.
