The very fact that you're buying into anti Muslim propaganda is what’s really concerning about this thread.
The truth is simple.
Global War on Terrorism is the response to the Muslims war against everyone else.
Not ALL Muslims are terrorist but the majority of terrorist are Muslim.
So therefore everyone who is not Muslim has the right to suspect anyone who is Muslim of being a terrorist.

There is a little bit more to that than you seem to be implying, if I read you right you think it was just because "whitey" didnt like Muslims in his area?

There's a simple way to solve this in the UK or any other Western country, you introduce laws that state that any person(s) or group irrespective of their race colour or creed pose a threat to the indigenous population then they will be jailed and/or deported.
If you are not happy where you live, do not like the people or politics then move no one is forcing anybody to stay here
My wife and I are hoping to move to France when we retire and we will be proud and happy to embrace the French way of life and law
, thats what normal people do, as I said before when in Rome do as the Romans.

A PETROL bomb launched at a Muslim-owned dairy on Wednesday night may have been in retribution for alleged attacks on three residents involving pitchforks and lead pipes.
Now it seems outrage has hit boiling point with the property already being used as a prayer room without hearing the outcome of the application to use it as one.
Sardar Hussain, managing director of Medina Dairy, claimed it was his security guard who was initially attacked and said: "I want to work co-operatively with the West Windsor Association. I wish to be more involved in the community here in West Windsor if given the opportunity.
"I have friends and colleagues of many religions. I am a strong believer that people of all religions should try to co-operate and play their part in communal life."

Do you think my values and my culture would mean anything at all to the local population?? Do I have the right in those countries to practice my beliefs??
Most often you have the right to practice your belief even if it means the local people have to suffer because of it.
It is this unbalanced and unreasonable situation that is now causing such bad feeling in all the free societies around the world.
the Muslims at the fundamental level feel that they are justified in killing all that refuse to convert.
but they do all read from the same book and so must have the same direction of thought.
I think they only way to resolve this situation is for the Muslim community to re-educate themselves
to open their eyes and look toward a future where they can see that the truth is not about how people treat Allah but it is about how people treat people!!

Just like the so-called 'local' people have the right to practice their beliefs, even if the 'non-local' people don't like it.
Liberty is a problem eh?
Since the Koran explicitly forbids this, i think we will need more than just your word to accept this statement. The Muslims I know haven't tried to kill me for not being a Muslim. If anything, Islam, as a culture throughout its history, is a far more tolerant of other religions than Christianity and the like. In Europe, the Christians exterminated the old religions. In the Islamic world, the old religions still exist.

Today, the Koran continues to be at the core of 95%+ of all terrorism worldwide. If indeed we are at war with terrorists, then we ought to be informed about what the terrorists believe and why. What follows are only a few quotes from the Koran. The Surah’s (chapter & verse) reference number is provided so that you can affirm for yourself that these quotes are accurate.
This book, of course, being the one that demands that people of other religions be treated fairly, and that forced conversions are meaningless. Sounds more like that the English are the ones ignorant about the Muslims, thinking that they are required to kill non-converts, when precisely the opposite is demanded.
And where does firebombing a Muslim business work into this? Where does making patently false statements about another people's religion work into 'understanding'? How can the British Muslims have good relations with the British Christians if the British Christians are completely ignorant about the Muslims and think that they are all out to get them? Fear and paranoia based on ignorance as the foundation for community relations?

Again you missed the point. what I mean is NO ONE should have the right to do anything that is in contravention of other people.
Example .2. .. I DO have the right to my religious beliefs - BUT I DO NOT have the right to shove them down someone else’s throat and say they are WRONG for believing anything else.
No Liberty is the ideal. It is the very perversion of Liberty that I am talking about here.
I think you should read the Koran again if you think that.
What follows are only a few quotes from the Koran. The Surah’s (chapter & verse) reference number is provided so that you can affirm for yourself that these quotes are accurate.
"There is no compulsion in religion" (Qur'an 2:256)
The Muslim communities of the world will find that violence begets violence.
The unfortunate events of a firebombing on more than likely innocent people is a response to the overall Muslim attitude.
The attitude of Muslims to think in terms of Muslims against Christians
This is not a fight Muslim v. Christians

Its a shame we have to sit behind a computer to voice our opinions whilst they are openly doing it in our streets
I pay my taxes my national insurance and my bills with the rest of you and I want to voice my opinion out there on the streets but I cant as I will be branded a racist and/or arrested
because it would be to much hassel for the police to do anything as then the police would be branded as "WRONG".
and once more Britania WILL rule the waves.
..On Wednesday a Muslim-run dairy was firebombed..
..and who was responsible for that atrocity? muslims bombing their own businesses, or Sun-reading BNP extremists? Seems like complete anti-muslim bias to me that there are no reported details of that event
People didn't go round calling the IRA, catholic terrorists did they?
But who's to say that the war is illegal? us? No, that's for the government to decide, and we can't really do much about it now. How would you go about punishing the government if they are the punishers and who exactly would you punish?
The BNP may be a joke to you
I mean, come on. These muslim youths attacking the homes of four soldiers coming back from war? I'm sure as hell Brits there would be pissed off, they allow Muslims to immigrate to their country and suddenly they attack the homes of returning soldiers?
Unfortunately there is no way to fight Radical Islam through the military. It has to be through education. Western culture and ideals brought to the Middle East and anywhere else.
There's a simple way to solve this in the UK or any other Western country, you introduce laws that state that any person(s) or group irrespective of their race colour or creed pose a threat to the indigenous population then they will be jailed and/or deported. Anyone preaching hate, murder and mayhem against other groups should be jailed, (that incudes the BNP) we all have to live together and we cannot afford the luxury of any radical group in a peacful society. There is a fine line in being free to express ones views in a democracy and using a democracy as a means to ferment hate and fear.

This leaked document claiming to emanate from The Church of England, criticises the British government's policy on Multiculturalism and it's favouritism towards muslims:
The Church says 'privileged attention' has been given to the Islamic faith
These include "using public funds" to fly Muslim scholars to Britain, shelving legislation on forced marriage and encouraging financial arrangements to comply with Islamic requirements.
spencerjohnstone
they do not want a mosquw in their area
Weither you agree with it or not that should be left up to the individuals who liv in that community
Both sides are just as bad as each other, they all need to calm down before it gets worse.
The UN did not and Ill repeat did authorise the Invasion of Iraq. So yes it is illegal
If we in the Uk are not allowed to openly express our views, without being ridiculed for doing so. The what is this so called democracy for that we supposingly live in?

Please explain how my initial understanding, that the place was firebombed by angry white youths who wanted to target a muslim, was wrong????
The article you cite explicitly confirms that. That the bombers felt justified is meaningless.
