As I predicted, you casually ignored the vast majority of my post.

If you actually lived in the UK you would not hold that opinion.
If you can't offer a convincing counter-argument the next best thing to do is to discredit the source or shoot the messenger boy, eh?

there was the Riots, Violent Riots for weeks. Very tolerant indeed.
Contrary to your naive understanding of the riots/protests, this situation had absolutely nothing to do with Islam. It's not logical to explain every violent conflict in the world involving those of Muslim/North African/ Arab heritage as being Islamist. Especially as this is more obviously a class war about employment, poverty, etc that happens to overlap with issues of identity because of discrimination in French society.
If anything's coming back to bite France in anyway, it would be their former empire haunting them.

Interesting article....didn't get the connection between Muslims and Jews though.

Some people just love to sound off about so called “Islamophobia”.
Muslims in Europe, USA or the Middle East have no complaisant to ghettoisation, denial of basic human rights, forced conversion, or the enforcement of them to wear special and distinctive clothes(The clothes choice of the Muslimsis there own) and badges is what Jews experienced.
So long as ill-informed people keep claiming that what is happening to Muslims is the New Holocaust and the Israeli-Jews/US/UK are Nazis.
Then these claims can be ignored. They use these terms to claim parity with the victimisation and suffering of the Jews

No, very bad article. The teacher was an English instructor teaching students to learn English. It was the students (who were from Pakistan and other places) that complained about the veil being in the way, mitigating their ability to learn because they could not follow the way the instructor would pronounce words.

The association said the accompanying text made clear Christians were not the only group accused, in fact a quarter of the alleged incidents were provoked by Muslims, it said.

Q. Are British Muslims doing enough?
A. No.

For someone who claims to be anti zionist, Why do you utilise quotes and stats from one of the most vocal ones?

The surveys, as far as I know weren't taken by Daniel Pipes. I found them on his website while searching for opinion surveys on Britains Muslim population. I personally think it's fine to post information from a rightwing website as long as the information is correct. If you think British Muslims aren't radicalized or disagree with my link than address it.
Quote:
- has found that more than one in ten thinks that the men who carried out the London bombings of 7/7 should be regarded as “martyrs”. Sixteen per cent of British Muslims, equivalent to more than 150,000 adults, believe that while the attacks were wrong, the cause was right.

If British Muslims are doing enough, why is it that French Muslims are more tolerant than their British co-religionists? French Muslims report bad experiences attributed to their 'race', ethnicity and religion in higher percentages than british Muslims. I think it's also fair to say that French Muslims have higher levels of unemployment than British Muslims. There is an obvious dichotomy between the treatment of Muslims in Britain and France, but also the perception of the attitudes that Muslims have in their 'host' countries. Paradoxically, British Muslims despite reporting less racism against them are more radicalized than French Muslims. I still stand by what I said earlier. Are British Muslims doing enough? No.

This perception of welcome persists despite the fact that French Muslims are somewhat more likely than those in other European countries to report that they have had a bad experience attributable to their race, ethnicity or religion. Nearly four-in-ten Muslims (37%) in France report such incidents, compared with 28% in Britain , 25% in Spain and 19% in Germany. Younger French Muslims are more likely to report a bad experience -- 40% of those under age 35 compared with 31% of those age 35 or older.

But what most distinguishes French Muslims from their co-religionists not only in the Muslim world but in Europe, is their attitude toward Jews. Fully 71% of French Muslims express a positive view of people of the Jewish faith , compared with only 38% of German Muslims, 32% of British Muslims , 28% of Spanish Muslims and still lower numbers in the predominantly Muslim countries surveyed. In this, Muslims reflect the view of the larger French public among whom fully 86% express a favorable opinion of Jews, a higher proportion than even than among the American public.

Egyptian students who wear the veil could face expulsion from a leading university if they refuse to uncover their faces.
Helwan University has already banished students from residence halls and has threatened to expel from campus those who turn up with their faces covered, university officials said on Friday.
