British Muslims want Islamic Law
Guardian Unlimited ^ | Tuesday November 30, 2004 | Alan Travis and Madeleine Bunting

Posted on 11/30/2004 12:15:03 AM PST by eluminate

Muslims in Britain want greater recognition of their faith with the introduction of Islamic law for civil cases and time off for prayers during the working day, but are equally committed to greater participation in British life.

A special Guardian/ICM poll based on a survey of 500 British Muslims found that a clear majority want Islamic law introduced into this country in civil cases relating to their own community. Some 61% wanted Islamic courts - operating on sharia principles - "so long as the penalties did not contravene British law".

I'm so happy that the Muslims are asking this now so that the liberals will have clearer idea what will happen when the Muslims become majority...

And the liberals will help them every step of the way.

Muslims have made inroads in Canada, and our liberals were only to happy to bend over for them.

I think liberals easily support islam (does not merit a capital letter) because they are united by their hate for Christianity. They turn a blind eye to the threat because it suits their agenda of undermining Judeo-Christian values.

We will all receive a very rude awakening some day.

The liberals do understand. The liberals believe Americans are the evil empire, and the mulims must therefore be good.

Should we in the U.S. prepare for a massive influx of British immigrants?

I personally would prefer them to some of the others we've been getting lately, especially the illegal ones.

As Netanyahu says Israel is the little satan, and America is the big satan according to the Muslims

Oh no. . .but they really want to participate more in British life. . .translation I assume - convert the heathens - so Islamic law ie Muslims; can rule. . .

And in the meantime, benefit from the superior prosperity that infidel religion, culture, law and attitudes have produced. I daresay that the average British welfare recipient lives as well, if not better, than the average member of the Iranian middle class.

It always amazes me on how people want to escape the hell hole countries they live in then only to demand bringing their "culture" with them which is why their country is a hell hole to begin with.

DING DING DING! We have a winner! You nailed it. It amazes me, as well. Somehow, they believe that, this time, they can have both Islamic law and prosperity. Fat chance. Where will they go if and when they take over Britain and turn it into another Islamic hellhole? Muslims are like a plague of locusts, devouring everything in their path. Sooner or later, they run out of fields to feed off of and then they die.

If British muslims want islamic law, allow me to suggest they emigrate to an islamic country. By choice or by force - it makes no difference to me!

Yeah they're working on becoming the majority. While the rest of the people are busy having abortions and at most a two child family - Muslims are behaving like rabbits. Also they're busy intermarrying. No surprise.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend? The liberals don’t stop to think of what will happen if their new “friends” gain power – after all, the Muslims were their friends.

Meanwhile, Jacques Chirac continues his crusade to stop the advancement of that truly EVILLLLLL American culture.

I'm sitting here this morning, reading this thread, and the ones involving Holland and Sweeden's troubles with Muslim immigrants, wondering just what it is going to take before action is taken to stem this march towards a new Dark Age. The left rank and file sheep are so absolutely blind to what is happening!

Gee, thanks.

That is my one regret in life...that I didn't move to America years ago.

Theres an Islmaic group in England called Al Mujaharoun, that already claimed, on its webite, to have its own Sharia court thanks to Sheik Omar Muhammed Bakri.

I linked to it over at LGF ages ago, but their British and Pakistani mirror websites have been down... probably because they openly support Al Qaeda and want the British government overthrown. Their power base in England comes mostly from the Pakistani immigrants.
