Full text: Muslim groups' letter
BBC ^ | 8/12/06

Posted on 08/12/2006 10:41:10 AM PDT by dervish

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.

The whole letter reveals the ignorance of this filthy bunch.

Civilians in Lebanon and environs will be fine when they clean out the trash they have allowed to accumulate in their neighborhoods. Or, the IDF will do it for them.

"Attacking civilians is never justified."

Unless they are infidel deveils of course.

These people should be seized by their burkhas and tossed ona barge back to Saudi Arabia with a warning not to return.

Then why don't they condemn Hezbolla, whose rockets are 100% civilian-targeted?

Oh, and HIDING BEHIND civilians is never justified you duplicitous, murdering followers of the moon god worshiping pedophile!

How about this ?

What is the "Muslim Parliament of Britain"?

Do WE have a "Muslim Congress of America"?

Why didn't anyone tell me?

Yeah, they say they cover their women in order to protect them from infidels. Of course, your average Muslim woman has about a 100x greater chance of being abused by a Muslim man than by any infidel.

Dear Muslims:

Have you considered that your entire strategy is dependent on the assumption that the western world is too nice to do what we could do?

Assuming your opponent is nice is not always a good long-term strategy. I know it's worked well so far, but each time a Muslim shoots up a community center or tries to blow up a plane, fewer people in the west feel like being nice.

The balance might start tipping against you really fast.

You won't read about it in the New York Times. But it's happening already.

Think it over.

The best hope for the UK is to submit now to Sharia!

Prince Tampon probably agrees.
