Where Are We Going Wrong Helping Homegrown Terrorists Integrate Society?
Fox News Live/NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Made-in-the-UK Islamic radicals are trying to murder people - and it's the UK's fault for not doing a better job integrating them into society.

That was the view expressed on Fox News this afternoon by Angela Corpe of Sky News - Fox's UK sister network. Fox's Page Hopkins asked: "Given that you had 7/7 and we in New York know what it was like after 9/11. [Is it] still very fresh in Londoners' minds that these were home-grown would-be terrorists?

Corpe: "It was a problem even before 7/7 happened last year. . . We are not facing foreign terrorists but people bred here in the UK. Something our politicians have been discussing today. Not only [must we] be more tolerant of the Muslim faith and realize these few do not speak for the Muslim faith. These people born here, brought up here, going to our schools and still feel the need to blow up planes to, to plot to explode buildings and tube stations.

Continued Corpe: "We have a real job to do here in the UK to try to reintegrate these people and find out where we are going wrong in helping these people realize that if they want to stay in this country they have to accept the freedoms we have here and respect human life in the same way we do."

With that kind of attitude, should Angela ever want to 'cross the pond' she should have no problem finding employment in our MSM.

Well, honey, given that they're mostly young Muslim men the best technique I can think of is a two-by-four between the eyes. Then you negotiate.

Well, she's not a Fox employee, per se, but a reporter for the sister Sky News network in the UK. I can't imagine a Fox News reporter expressing such opinions for long. Page Hopkins, for one, is pretty tough!

The Laz Way: "We have a real job to do here in the US to try to find these Islamics, expel them forcibly from our country, then bomb whereever they end up. We are going to have to help these people realize that if they want to live, they have to renounce Islam."

"and it's the UK's fault for not doing a better job integrating them into society."

1. The ideology of Multiculturalism is against integration.

2. The ideology of Islamism is against integration.

Total BS argument, as terrorists communicate, using email and cell phones, with other terrorists in other countries. So all terrorism is global. You don't think those two guys arrested in Ohio knew anything about what was planned in Europe today? These reporters are not only silly; they're dangerous.

Simple answer: We are going wrong by letting these turd-birds live in our country in the first place.

The only understanding miscreants of this ilk deserve is hempen therapy.

"Angela Corpe"

Her terrorist sympathizing could turn her into Angela Corpse.

"...where we are going wrong in helping these people realize that if they want to stay in this country they have to accept the freedoms we have here and respect human life in the same way we do..." is in failing to learn that they plan to eliminate you and rule your land.

Even if you wanted to, you can't make someone "integrate". This has been tried for YEARS with blacks but most have absoloutely no intrest in being "integrated" and we largely share the same religion. She thinks Muslims want to integrate? Dream on.

Anyone thinking the way an extremist thinks is probably not able to be integrated into any moderate, civilized society.

I'm afraid we'll go through five American Beslans before we finally get rid of them. I'm scared.

I saw it. Almost puked. What is wrong over there. Is their entire media composed of fools, liars or fifth columnists. The ROP almost kills thousands of her countrymen and all that she can conclude is that the almost victims were at fault somehow.The UK is not going to survive very long if you can't name the evil that that has sworn to kill you. A PC death wish.

One way to help would be, an enforced 6 month indoctrination of western values, for all NON-western immigrates....lessons in English, details of government functions, the responsibilities' of being a citizen....this would be a mandatory course, for all to complete, BEFORE taking residence....

Anything is possible....any idea, any concept of kumbayah, diversity, tolerance, understanding, harmony, peace, it's all our fault, we're to blame....

There's not a single (unsuppressed) synapse that goes "DING DING DING" It's their religion! It's their religion that makes them want to kill us! There's not the slightest consideration that, if they're born (t)here, bread (t)here, part of the economy (t)here....and they STILL want to blow up and kill people...maybe THEY are the problem, and maybe the thing to do is to get THEM out of your country. Unless, of course, you HATE your country and would like to see it destroyed and your countrymen/women killed.

I keep telling my "undertanding and tolerant" liberal friends (and the number is declining) "For your sake, may the knife they use to cut your throat be sharp, so it goes quickly". That usually earns a welcome moment of silence.
