Great, so because I didn't mention every other ethnic group, in a thread about muslims, I'm obviously implying that it's only muslims this occurs with?

<Sigh> Ladies and gentlemen, in my documents folder I have a sealed message with my prediction for the response to that message from Xaccers... :rolleyes:

The point is that there is little love lost between many sections of the Jewish and Islamic communities. Picking a single example like that doesn't necessarily provide proof by any means.

ADDENDUM: PS thanks for the red rep based on your straw man argument! :rofl:

No, you actually said:

You're looking at a *Jewish* site for opinions about Muslims?

Great idea!

Now how about looking at a BNP site for opinions about Blacks? I'm sure you'll find more equally open minded and unbiased commentary on there...!!

Equating a jewish site's content with that of the BNP and you don't expect to get a red rep for it???
Didn't a certain mayor cause great offence by suggesting a reporter's actions were similar to an anti-semetic group?

How did I *know* you were going to jump on that one...?!

You would have to ask Ken Livingstone about that, I don't speak for him.

Now excuse me, I'm going to bed.

If the thread is to be closed, I must protest that because of work I cannot post at the same time as others.

Doesn't that breach your "human rights"?

Re: Muslims should expect to be stopped....

I think it might be time for some people to do some growing up. Some of the comments posted have been beyond puerile.

Has anyone got a point to make anymore?

Just the one really. By the sound of things, this is going to happen anyway. It remains to be seen whether or not it works, and we shall never know if the alternatives would have been better or worse. But if it leads to the capture of one terrorist, or prevents a single atrocity, I believe it will all have been worthwhile.

I'm gone.

No, since I made the point and you want to argue with it, it's you that's missing the point.

First you ask me to describe the British indigenous culture, and then you want to argue against it on the basis of it being 'obligatory'. I didn't say it was, nor is cultural identity based things that are obligatory.

I sometimes think you only ask a question so that you can argue about someone's answer/opinion.

I don't drink. I can't remember the last time I ate Roast Pork, does that make me "not British"? Of course not.

Now you're being facetious.

Really? let me remind you:

And you don't grass your mates up to the Police, teacher, whoever, no matter whether you're black, white, asian or anything else.

That sounds very much like your opinion, rather than your opinion on another culture/group.

Not when it is impossible to stay on topic because someone continually takes the discussion off at a tangent.

In which case you have, once again, missed my point.

Re: Muslims should expect to be stopped....

I think we have all just about had enough of this topic now - it's pretty much going round in circles with lots of petty personal remarks and reps. Time to move on. Thread closed.
