The British are the ones who have in the past been the leaders of the effort to put the hurt on the Asian tyrants

I've been reading too many articles written from the British perspective. "Asian" to me really menas oriental, and I don't mean that. Swap out "Islamofascist" with "Asian and it will make more sense.

Yes Asian has a different connotation in Britain than it does elsewhere.

When we say Asian we mainly mean muslim Asian. We tend to use far east for the other orientals.
