Full text: Muslim groups' letter

Lives are being put at risk by UK policies, the letter says

British Muslim groups have written to the prime minister calling for "urgent" changes to UK foreign policy.

In an open letter they say British policy is putting civilians at increased risk in the UK and abroad. This is the text:

"Prime Minister, As British Muslims we urge you to do more to fight against all those who target civilians with violence, whenever and wherever that happens.

It is our view that current British government policy risks putting civilians at increased risk both in the UK and abroad.

To combat terror the government has focused extensively on domestic legislation. While some of this will have an impact, the government must not ignore the role of its foreign policy.

The debacle of Iraq and now the failure to do more to secure an immediate end to the attacks on civilians in the Middle East not only increases the risk to ordinary people in that region, it is also ammunition to extremists who threaten us all.

Attacking civilians is never justified. This message is a global one. We urge the Prime Minister to redouble his efforts to tackle terror and extremism and change our foreign policy to show the world that we value the lives of civilians wherever they live and whatever their religion.

Such a move would make us all safer."

"Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Qur'an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth"

I agree completely. As soon as Hamas and the Hezbullies stop targeting civilians in Israel, there will be peace in the middle east.

Given our immigration laws, which favor third world countries, expect the same here as the Muslim population continues to grow.

Look how vocal CAIR and other Islamic organizations have become and the percentage of the population is much lower than in the UK.

Statement: "Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Qur'an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth"

Response: If this is the belief of the majority of moslems they will certainly obtain their goal against any society dedicated to the proposition that life consists of eating, drinking, doing drugs, copulating, evacuating the bowels and snoring.
