Poppy-burning: What a disgrace
 
www.dailystar.co.uk - muslims burn poppies

I find the story and photos are a total disgrace against every member of the armed services, that will be remembered on Sunday.

And the worst part is that some members of our society will agree with what they are doing. and the culprits will get away with it.:mad:

but what those ignorant people forget is that a lot of muslims died in the 1st and 2nd world war defending there freedom so to make it possible for them the protest freely today.

The difference is that they did it in their own country.

All three of the poppy-burners claim to have been born, educated and employed in the UK. Unless they're lying (and I think the papers would have been onto it by now if they were), they did this in their own country. ;)

No point in giving them any attention to be honest.

They are extremist morons doing moronic things, they were there arguing with EDL morons, life goes on.

how do you know that some or all of these muslims weren't British ?

what does stand out is the ignorance they show with statements like this

Quote:

Asad Ullah, 23, a spokesman for the group who would only say he was from London, said: "The British soldiers you remember on this day are soldiers who have taken innocent lives in illegal occupations and unjust wars.
totally missed the point of what poppy day is all about

Yup. Really no different to the skinheads and other assorted low-lifes who periodically gain notoriety for anti-establishment stunts.

Of course, because these people have brown skins and a different religion, there is something altogether more awful about it, apparently. :rolleyes:

:tu: Exactly. Why let the extremists define the conversation? Ignoring them is the best option.

quite agree ,i wonder if those muslims would vent their hatred in the same manner to this man and his like

One conman, Mohammed Ahmed, was jailed for six years after stealing £500,000 from pilgrims who had booked flights and hotels through him.

I expect some of them were.

Quote:

We ask Allah (SWT) to accept the actions of all the Muslims that attended and we moreover pledge that we will never stop condemning the British regime nor their allies until all British soldiers are withdrawn from foreign (Muslim) countries and until the justice of Islam is implemented all over the world.
Ignore the last line. it will never happen :)

Re: Poppy-burning: What a disgrace
 
We are proud of they way we have freedom in this country and that our brave forces fight for us, and other countries who cannot defend themself, but l find this to be totally disgraceful.

This is the reason why we have so much trouble and we 'don't defend' our own people, we have various people who do so much to harm this great country and we let them, it is so sad.

All l hope it that they don't try it tomorrow of all days.

To all the services for tomorrow l say 'thank you for giving us that freedom that we cherish'
