- LONDON (Reuters) - Muslims in Britain feel like aliens in their own society and say they are targeted like "the Jews of Europe", the country's first Muslim government minister said.
An ICM survey done for the documentary shows a narrow majority of 51 percent of Britons blame Islam to some degree for the bombings. Eight out of 10 Muslims said they felt there was more religious prejudice against their faith since the bombings.
Common sense still exists for 51% of the British public, despite the half truths and distortions of British politicians and Muslim spokespeople in the West.

I have always thought it was obvious ...
These nutters always feel the need to congregate, so next time they do, round them up and ship them off to the Isle of Wight or The Outer Hebrides - suspend the boat and light aircraft services to these locations and let them get on with it.
Then when the skinheads and facists get together round them up and ship them of to the same place. Can you imagine the TV ratings for that "reality" show, Big Brother eat your heart out.
For those residents on the islands issue them with compulsory purchase orders and resettle them.

I think rats is feeling a bit jaded after having to count up to one.
Interesting that he chose to bring up an article from over one year ago, which - IRRC - was discussed at the time.
Not surprised that rats is still living in the past - but to give him credit, at least this is more recent than some other discredited views he has. :)
Viking - that sounds like one reality show I would actually watch!!
Cheers,

This is only the beginning:Muslim community leader arrested after reporting his own kidnapping:
- Quote:
- A Muslim community leader who claimed last week to have been abducted from his own home by racists as part of a British National party hate campaign, has been arrested on suspicion of perverting the course of justice.
Noor Ramjanally had told the Guardian that he was taken from his flat in Loughton, Essex, by two white men at knifepoint. He said he had been bundled into a car boot and driven to Epping Forest where the men threatened him unless he stopped holding weekly Muslim prayer sessions at a community centre. The prayer sessions had been the target of a leafleting campaign by the far right BNP.
Ramjanally blamed the extremist party for inspiring a terror campaign against him, including his claim of abduction which he alleged had happened on Monday 24 August in broad daylight. Today police arrested Ramjanally, 36, after consulting the Crown Prosecution Service.
Detectives are continuing to investigate allegations that he suffered a firebomb attack and received hate mail in July. Last night Ramjanally was being questioned at a police station in Harlow.
Last week he said that after being snatched he had been driven for 10 minutes to the forest, walked around and threatened. "They said 'We don't want your Islamic group in Loughton.' I was scared, I feared for my life. I was in a forest, a knife was held against me, how would you feel? They said, 'If you don't stop, we'll come back.' "
The attackers then left Ramjanally alone in the woods, he claimed.
Last week, police said they were investigating the incident and two earlier ones at Ramjanally's home. "Police are treating the incidents as 'hate crime' and a possible motivation would appear to be a link to the use of the Murray hall, Loughton, by the Muslim community for Friday prayers," a spokesman said.
It's unfortunate that the British government is taking a leaf from Nazi Germany's playbook. What's next, Tony Blair declaring Islam a 'peaceful' religion?
