Muslims Again

[LeedsRhinos]

It seems that whenever we watch Sky Uk news (from New Zealand) there always seems to be a Muslim spokesperson ranting about this and that. There never seems to be the same Hindu, Sikh, Buddist, Jewish ,Spokepersons. Why is this?
This is not another anti muslim rant. It is purely an observation.

[whiffey]

The same trend can be purely observed over here in UK.

It's just the way things are going, here as in New Zealand sooner or later.

[El D]

Because no-one would watch. It's a huge cycle feeding off people's stupidity. Luckily for the media the vast majority of the population in the UK are moronic.

[whiffey]

Nice one El D.

You of course are not a moron, but can spot those who are. You can make yourself felt at the next General Election, where you will vote......?

A hard one there lol

[jennyp]

Probably as in every walk of life he who shouts loud gets heard.

[El D]

Lol yes whiffey I can still spot them . . .

[whiffey]

Ah ha, a Lib Dem.

[Lonnie]

Its because they are the ONLY immigrant group that wants the host country to change for them, all the others generally abide by the rules of the said country.

This is also an observation.

lonnie your right {bosnian} out breed the serbs over 4 generations then ask for independance who did mister blair bomb?/

[jno]

that depends, Lonnie... the presence of many Muslims in the UK derives from the fact that the British took control of India (which included what is now Pakistan). In those days the British thought it right that not only should the host country change for their benefit, but that they themselves should run the host country. Perhaps that's where Muslims get their ideas from?

[Lonnie]

Your absoluteley correct in what you say jno, this country has not much at all, to be proud of in its imperialistic past, but past is the operative word, we are talking about here and now.

Its possible that they may succeed in their aims, and this country becomes Muslim, and as you point out, it could be classed as them doing to this country, what this country did to them, but having been brought up in a comparitively free society, I will fight with every fibre of my being, not to be ruled by people who will not allow, among other things, religious frrdoms and discussions.

[jno]

I didn't mean that Britain is being punished for its past particularly, Lonnie; but we can't just put the past behind us, it's always with us. Because Britain insisted India become part of its empire, now Indians travel freely to Britain. (Likewise New Zealanders; and I'm guessing LeedsRhinos is a Brit who's gone the other way.) By the same token, France has Algerians and Moroccans. The past actions of both countries, and others, have consequences, and we are living with them. I don't find this as scary or immoral as other people seem to.

[jno]

Incidentally, I've got a fiver says the country does not become Muslim in your lifetime! I'm that confident!

[Little Willy]

jno, only a fiver [this answer has been edited] ,i will bet a grand the country don't become muslim, in any of our lifetimes.

[dayoff]

muslims are looked at the wrong way and they pull a tantrum what would happen to me if i went to saudi and shouted about my rights as a catholic i think i would be in the jail or worse

[Oneeyedvic]

dayoff: Just in case you were interested

Percentage of Muslims in England & Wales: 2.7%
Percentage of Muslims in Scotland: 0.84%
(2001 census - ons)

Percentage of Christians in Iraq: 3.5%
(from wikipedia)

[mangetoute]

oneeyedvic,2.7% a lots changed then in 5yrs,you would'nt say 2.7% if you lived in leeds/bradford.

[Doggy2]

Rest assured that as long as you have a media ****** like Rupert Murdoch that has the interest of certain immigrant group in his heart, the muslims will always get the bashing irrespective of how many dozen muslim spokespersons there are ranting about this and that.

[jno]

dayoff if you were in Saudi Arabia and shouted about your rights as a Saudi, you'd be in jail. Don't kid yourself they've got anything in particular against Christians.
