Whereas it was completely wrong for a pregnant woman to be attacked by two men, In a separate incident Was it right for the French police to be attacked by a mob of 60 for enforcing the French burkha ban?

I went to Whitechapel station to go in the hospital there a while ago.
It was like walking into Islamabad or similiar type countrys.
It was a total culture shock for me, but I carried on and looked all around the market and not one of them looks English.

indeed - i almost walked into a prayer meeting once, that splayed out across a street because the mosque wasn't big enough to accommodate them all,

/// This would never happen in the UK, the more the Muslims push for the right to practice their culture in the UK the more the UK people will retaliate. ///

Not if the thinking of certain AB members is anything to go by, they would just lay back and let them take over the country.

[emmie]

what would be really worrying if Jewish people felt threatened in any way by the large influx of Muslims, seeing their enmity, or just respect each others religions, and rub along together.

I do not go off on one. I simply tell it as it is. You compared wearing a burqa to wearing a crucifix, apparently completely unaware that within Islam there is no requirement for a woman to cover her face, just as within Christianity there is no requirement for anyone to wear a crucifix. Whilst this practice continues unopposed, those that are obliged by men to wear the burqa will never be allowed to integrate or to become part of the society they’ve come to live in. These women do not have a voice; their ‘sisters’, who are free to abandon the burqa at will, do not speak for them, their menfolk do not want anyone to speak for them, so if we don’t speak, who will? There are women who have been living in this country for years who, because they have never been allowed to interact with the rest of the population, still can’t speak English – and it goes further than that. Arranged marriages, female genital mutilation, marriages of little girls to old men - all of that is what people who defend the burqa endorse – albeit unwittingly. I want these ladies to integrate - I want them to have the education, the advantages, and the freedom that the rest of us enjoy – but they will have none of those things until these horrendous practices stop. I’m on their side!

aog, when,do you predict, Muslims will take over the country? And on what basis do you make that prediction?

We have better things to do than worry about something that will never happen, but it would help if we had some idea of the date on which we are to succumb to the Islamic hordes.

[Brenden]

That is what the Serbian people said in Kosovo fred - now it belongs as part of Albania.

[FredPuli43]

You'll have to explain how Kosovo is now part of Albania, Brenden. A large number of Alabanians fled from Kosovo to Albania, being driven out.

But in what way is a war in that area the basis for saying that Muslims will take over the UK? The similarity or analogy is not plain to see.

[THECORBYLOON]

Brenden do you think it only recently the Muslims have been in the majority in Kosovo?

[Brenden]

Certainly not corby, but the Albanian muslims were not the majority until a few years ago, making the Serbains the minority.

I went through whitechapel towards mile end station one afternoon, and there were several hundred young girls all in full burkha dress. all had come out of some school. Smart, well behaved. I think we have to learn to integrate. all the nationalities are here in Britain, and we have to learn to live with it.
French are a strange race by all accounts, and in this they are flogging a dead horse, going nowhere.

[jomifl]

Annie, we don't have to integrate, they do.

[askyourgran]

When in Rome.............if they wish to practice their religion and continue to wear their outlandish mode of dress, they should find a suitable Muslim country to live in.

[jomifl]

'The French are a strange race', well perhaps..they are proud of their country, their history, their language, their food, their wine, their music, their architecture, their art, their literature, their fashions, their music Jonny Halliday, Napoleon etc. So when a group of foreigners settle in their country and disdain all the above and despise them to boot then it is obvious that they have only come for a share in the financial wealth of France. That is what p1sses the French off and what pisses off the Brits too.

[askyourgran]

Agree jomifl, the French are much more militant than we are, they won't stand for nonsense. We just sit back and let them all walk over us.

[jno]

disdaining Johnny Hallyday? Well, for shame. I liked him in Man on the Train, but can say his music is rubbish without causing an incident?

[askyourgran]

As long as they don't disdain Sasha Distel jno.

[jno]

disdain Distel? throws up hands in horror

[jomifl]

jno, at last we have found something upon which we agree :-)
