THE STREETS OF LONDON


I recently received an email from Tony, a regular reader of my blog and a person I have known for more years than either of us would admit to.


Tony is Irish, which is only relevant in regard to what he writes below. At the top of this blog are two photographs from a selection that accompanied the original email sent to him. I was going to add my usual ha’pence worth but to be honest I think the photos and Tony’s remarks say it all! You of course are welcome to add your views!


In Spain, unlike Britain, we live in a country that was occupied by the Moors for many centuries. Some of the great monuments such as the Alhambra and the mosque turned cathedral in Córdoba date from that time which was viewed as a golden age. Radical Muslims have also laid claim to what once was Al Andalus.


EMAIL TO TONY WITH PHOTOS:


Makes you wonder doesn't it...can you imagine having a Christian demonstration against Islam in downtown Baghdad?


View the pictures and decide how you really feel about the future of the Western World. These pictures are of Muslims marching through the STREETS OF LONDON during their ‘Religion of Peace Demonstration’.


‘Why would anyone think that we should be at war with such nice, peaceful Muslims?!’ These pictures tell it all! Muslims have stated that England will be the first country they take over! These are pictures not shown on American TV or in American Newspapers, but were forwarded by a Canadian who thought All of us in the World ought to know!


TONY’S VIEW:


This is something I received from a friend in the UK. I cannot believe that this type of demonstration is allowed. Isn’t incitement to violence a crime? Provocation of this type is designed to put the "fear of Allah" into normal ordinary people rather than promote any type of integration or mutual understanding. Had the supporters of the IRA attempted to mount a demonstration of this kind during the "troubles", I have no doubt they would have been jailed for provoking violence, or racial or religious hatred - and rightly so.


With the Muslim population of Britain standing at 5 per cent, their influence over the government’s approach seems totally disproportionate to the size of their population.

I thoroughly agree with Tony´s comments and such racial and religious hatred should not be tollerated.
Having said that maybe one ought to take a closer inspection of all the plackards...I´m no hand writing expert but, the style, the wording, and the writing appears to have been done by one person.
Although not detracting from the serious breach of law, one has to ask the following...
Do these demonstators really want to carry out such attrocities? Or are they doing the bidding of one disgruntled individual who is using the demonstation as his mouthpiece to be seen and heard.

Unbelievable. Forget downtown Baghdad - I don't think Christians (or indeed anyone else) would be allowed to demonstrate in that manner in London!

I receive and read your communications regularly but this is the first time I have commented. I seriously believe that the West is in great danger from two quarters, one, the attacks and the gradual move on the West by radical Muslims who, encouraged by our past acceptance of terrorism by negotiating with killers and even giving them seats in government (IRA) to placate them and the Muslims know this so even if it takes 50 years they will try, even by having lots of off-spring in the West so they can eventually vote in their own Muslim politicians.

The other danger is the political ignorance that the average Western citizen, apart from tut-tutting at the Press photos and news, and they do little about it because they are scared of being called racists.

Hence the ongoing success in the UK of the BNP which if continued as we expect (I am not a member, just a spectator) other countries' voters will follow.

It is said that politicians do not win elections, they just lose them to the opposition.
