Sorry to break it to you but the largest Muslim contribution to these riots is the Turkish shopkeepers chasing looters away.
Again, sorry this isn’t fitting in with your view.

Thanks for posting that link. I hadn’t seen many of those pictures. I’ve actually been to that Farm W5 a few times, it’s not bad. Shame to see it got hit.
I may have a firecracker or two set aside for such an occasion.
Are you blind or just cute?
Saying most of the Africans (black) in the riots are Moslem...
Since you don’t seem to have a handle on reading comprehension and that is not what I said, this is all the response you get.
Try re-reading what I said about Blacks in London.
For anyone interested, here’s a video of the football lads turning up to tackle the looters http://www.twitvid.com/DWZPW
Thanks, buccaneer! Being the ugly American on the internet today, usually means not partaking in European socialist political correctness and mistaken superiority. Hating on Americans seems to be a passtime.
I can’t help it if foreigners on here are suffering “Islam is the religion of peace” syndrome. It’s brainwashing. In fact where they live, it is a hate crime to say what I said.
And what did I say that has them melting down in a puddle? That Muslims are involved in the riots, which they are. The other thing I said that has them melting down is that there are Muslim Africans and also blacks from the Carribean. If that fact upsets them, nothing I can do about it. I am not going to stupid politically correct land to make them feel good about themselves in some way.
I know they are upset that I said Muslims are involved in the riots. I did not say that every Muslim in London is involved in riots which the perpetually wounded claim I said because they are shopping for insult from their stereotype of the “ugly American.” One of these snooting guys on this thread has been mad at me since I said one time that Brits are not allowed to defend themselves. We are going to agree to disagree on all that nonsense.
Yes, some Muslims are middle class in London.
Just curious, what has Sara Johnson posted that is so terrible that you must use such language and order her off the thread? Are you a mod by any chance?
Be that as it may, it doesn't make you look any better for posting that these riots stem from or continue out of primarily Muslim efforts. I suppose you think the incident at the Wisconsin State Fair was jihad as well.
Got news for you. Most "black African" Muslims are from Somalia and Sudan with some from Nigeria. Here's a fact: There are more Somalis in COLUMBUS than there are in London.
The vast majority of those seen looting are white or black...not the "Asians" that we as Americans think of as Muslims.
Buccaneer, you are not going to get the reality of these riots watching the BBC.
I have been all over websites, facebook and Twitter and I see Muslims anarchists are involved in this riot with their friends communist anarchists. They share in one another’s protests because they are united on Marxism and the hatred of Israel. Muslims are high fiving all over the place about this riot.
In the meantime, there is a huge push of propaganda coming out of Islamic forums and publications claiming there is no Islamic involvement. They are all featuring those Muslim business men who beat off rioters with bats as proof that Muslims have nothing to do with the riots - they are the law and order ones, LOL.
It looks to me like the communists are coordinating this one and not the Mulsims because of the “official” message they are trying to get into the media. However, I could be wrong about that. Their claim is that these disenfranchized “yutes” have been enraged by budget cuts and this is why they are rioting. They are furious that the media is calling the rioters thugs and theives and not picking up their message of social and economic justice.
Looks to me like the Carribean Blacks are just enjoying the looting, racist antics and violence - I don’t see much communist economic propaganda coming out of that camp in their face book conversations and web sites. I have not tracked down the white element beyond the anarchists.
They want to destroy British historical sites now and burn down “the rich” neighborhoods and areas. I don’t know how they are doing now, but earlier, they appeared to be still jacked up.
“Most of the Africans (in GB) from Africa are Muslims”
Ipso facto...
“most of the Africans (black) in the riots are Moslem...”
That is exactly what you implied.
Aren’t there also a few articles out there about Pakistani shop owners defending their property from these mobs?
The news is saying this all started in a Jamaican neighborhood. I don’t know a thing about the Jamaican community in England, but I looked up the statistics and it says 74% of them are Christian, 11% are atheist and the rest are Rastafarian or Muslim.
So, yeah, I’m with you. I know the UK has problems with Islamic nutbags, but I don’t think the Muslims are the bad guys in this one. It looks like Britain is getting their own Wisconsin and Philly with a few anarchists thrown in there for good measure.
do the riots stop when the sun comes up?
Several instances of that. I don't like Muzzies, but I commend them for standing up to the thugs.
You're right. That's why I've been listening to LBC for 4 days. Those callers would have hung the Muzzies out to dry if they were behind this. Not a peep. These are people literally feet away from the action, regular Joes on cell phones. I believe them.
Neither, i have lived here for 37 years and have worked in every single place these riots have happened.
I know who is likely to be Muslim, and who isn’t.
You ? Well, you have the internet don’t you.
Not doing well? Interesting...here in Devon it's the best growing season for many years - cold, warm, wet, dry all happening at just the right times. But that's British cultural diversity for you....
do the riots stop when the sun comes up?
Usually.
Was mostly quiet last night, as usually seems to happen once people get organised. A few small groups slinking around looking for trouble mainly, and checking out where the police are. They were easily run off.
Our local Community Officer we forced to sit down, eat something hot and have an hour’s nap when he came around to check on us. Poor guy had been up 30 hours straight and living on cheap sandwiches and coffee.
London clay - the worst growing medium on the planet. Been working on the soil here for nigh on 30 years and it is still terrible. Always either too dry or too wet, too salty or too acidic.
Shifting to raised beds for the veg garden at least, so the soil can be controlled better. Also my back is not as good as it was :)
