Recent incidents of Muslims behaving badly—such as the butchering of British soldier Lee Rigby by two Islamic-convert African immigrants, the riots in Stockholm, and the never-ending revelations about numerous Pakistani pimps “grooming” very young white English girls for being gang-banged by their relatives

I don't know if this is meant to be an example of dry British wit, but incidents of behaving badly include things like belching at dinner or helping one's self to the last piece of pie without consideration for others.

Beheading the soldiers of one's host nation, rioting and pimping young girls native to the host nation are not examples of behaving badly - they are examples of atrocities.

This is the logical outcome of liberal guilt and self-loathing - Britain is being devoured the most extreme and most criminal elements of the Muslims it has welcomed in, and the British are now too intimidated and neutered by their own media, government and popular culture to dare to stand up for themselves.

Yes, you guessed correctly: this is an example of British understatement. The same technique Mark Steyn uses with such scorching ferocity. It’s possible to be so much more vicious with understatement than with bombast.
