Talking of hypocrites

Once again muslims are out protesting in East London. Are they protesting because some of their number are still being allowed to rape and abuse young girls in the name of religion? Are they protesting because some of their number thinks it's acceptable to strap a bomb to their backs and blow innocent people to pieces? are they protesting about the brutal dictators and murderous fanatics that run the average muslim country? Are they protesting about the islamic clerics who preach hate death and destruction?

No, of course they are not. They are protesting because they claim that the police were heavy handed when they went in to search the house of some muslims who had, on many occasions, stated their desire to kill and maim non muslims and who they believed were making a chemical weapon. The muslims claim that the police's actions are unsettling and disruptive to their community!

Do these people think that when some of their number took it upon themselves to blow themselves up on the underground last year that it made the rest of us feel safe and secure?

The police have a duty to protect us and when they recieve information about potential terrorists they have to act on it. And if this upsets the muslim minority then so be it. Despite what these people might think, in a democracy the needs of the majority are supposed to take priority and action such as this might not make the muslims feel good but do a hell of a lot to reassure the rest of us.

There are major airports all over this country with direct flights to muslim dictatorships. if these people are not happy in this country they are free to jump on a plane and go live in one of these places. Nobody is forcing them to live here.

In the meantime why aren't the "peacefull law abiding majority of muslims" we keep hearing about out in the streets protesting about the "minority among them" who give them such a bad name?
