Killing In The Name Of Islam Is Acceptable... The View Of One Third Of British Muslim Students
dailymail.co.uk ^ | July 27, 2008

Nearly one third of Muslim students believe it can be acceptable to kill in the name of religion, according to a survey published yesterday.

It also found that 40 per cent want to see the introduction of Islamic sharia law in Britain, 40 per cent think it wrong for Muslim men and women to mix freely together, and 33 per cent want to see a worldwide Islamic government based on sharia law.

The findings were described by researchers at the Centre for Social Cohesion think tank, which commissioned the poll, as 'deeply alarming'.

But a prominent Muslim student group called the report 'weak and unrepresentative' and said it undermined 'positive work carried out by Islamic societies'.

The Centre for Social Cohesion, founded last year to study religion and tolerance, has drawn attention to the extremist influence of Islamic societies and study centres at British universities.

The survey was based on a YouGov poll of 1,400 students, 600 of them Muslims, at 12 universities with influential Islamic societies.

These included eight in London, among them the London School of Economics, Imperial College, the School of Oriental and African Studies, and the universities of Birmingham, Leeds, Leicester and Manchester.

It found that a large minority of Muslim students express views that are strongly socially conservative or which suggest they are open to extremist thinking.

While 32 per cent justified killing in the name of religion if the religion was under attack, 60 per cent of students active in Islamic societies did so. Four per cent thought killing to promote religion was permissible.

More than half, 54 per cent, wanted an Islamic political party to stand up for Muslims at Westminster.

There was strong criticism of the British Government over Iraq - 66 per cent of Muslim students said they had lost respect...

How do they feel about killing Muslims just for being Muslims? I’d like to hear about that.

We seem to be in agreement on that.

Glad to see that British schools are worst than ours. That is what marxist/socialist/communist governments allow to fester in the name of diversity.

How do you spell “DEPORTATION”?

Yes, I wonder how they feel about a reciprocal arrangement from the West towards their belief system and community?

Notice the article did not put a percentage to the proportion of those surveyed who thought it was acceptable to kill in the name of religion (Of course the Koran states that it is acceptable.).

The article said "nearly" one third. That is a measure of orthodoxy in that Muslim community, but the fact is that a Muslim can be Orthodox whenever that Muslim becomes angry or disillusioned.

Muslims can and DO "flip" just like that.

So the safest position is to treat ALL professed Muslims AS IF they were genocidal killers until their conduct OVER A LONG PERIOD OF TIME proves otherwise, case by case.

The Arab League blocked international efforts to stop the genocide in Darfur for a long time. Egyptian soldiers have shot and killed Darfur refugees trying to get into Israel. www.zionism-israel.com

Well this Darfur genocide is right inside the Odinga connection with Somalia. If Odinga can bring Kenya into the Muslim Fold, then Somalia, the Sudan, and Kenya have a continuous stretch of caliphate countries all the way to Yemen and then to Iran.

They would then go to work on Egypt next.

I would love to see the Sudan's genocidal A$$ Hats deposed and run all the way back to Somalia where most of them came from.

We have Bill Clinton's failure to equip the US Marines in Somalia with tanks to thank for the genocide in Darfur. Clinton was the biggest POS this nation or the world has ever seen. His refusal to put the Muslim ifrit back in the Somali bottle has also given birth to the white slave trade, and piracy.

(I hate that prick more and more with each passing day, as we see the fruits of his mis-administration, such as the mortgage debacle here in the US, which was due to the Clinton cheap housing policy, and low income families were essentially taken to the cleaners, and that now has battered our economy, along with the Clinton "no oil exploration in the USA, no nuclear reactors etc." And Obama would be 10 times as bad. I swear, the day may come when we will all be on horse back here again, which suits me fine, for we all then will be toting guns.)
