yes jgs, totally agree with you.The journalists always go to muslims and ask their opinion .what about the rest of us???
I know what you mean about the hatred, but at the end of the day its the media who are fuelling this.They know the 'spokespeople' to go to.I was watching a local news broadcast yesterday and the had some muslim guy giving his opinin.obviously its all about britain's involvement in Iraq etc.When the journalist asked whether his community were afraid of reprisals, he arrogantly stated that so far, the have only gone for 'soft' targets-women , children, and the smiley manner in which he said it made me think, oh he is basically saying, 'bring it on'.?the fact is most people where i live have their own battles to fight and the pakistanis who own corner shops (dont know if they are muslim or not) are the most gracious people you will ever meet.live and let live is my motto.If they want a jihad , well i know any extremist who thinks 72 vigins are waiting for him in the afterlife is capable of thinking that a 58 million britons-1 million muslim ratio means 'they're in with a chance" at converting us to Islam :-)
