Out looking at the fact that the majority of both sides of the debate are not physically attacking one another in the UK.That there are no riots here and that moderate muslims,christians,hindus,sikhs,buddists,athiests are all able to debate this without coming to blows.That the moderate British muslims want those placard carrying extremists arrested for breaking the law just as much as anyone else.
I feel very heartened that thus far there has only been a minor demonstration outside an embassy with some possibly illegal activity,another march peaceful of about 400 and no embassy actually being burned to the ground.If we can try to accept that there is offence on both sides over this then maybe a dialogue can take place that allows for a better understanding of what a united British society will or will not find acceptable.
Britain can possibly be a beacon of what IS achievable if only we don't let rhetoric and injured feelings undermine what is the best thing about us British.The ability to adapt.
Of course I may just be invisible...
