Around a third of young British Muslims favour killing in the name of Islam, according to a survey revealed by the WikiLeaks’ publication of U.S diplomatic cables.

A survey of 600 Muslim and 800 non-Muslim students at 30 universities throughout the UK conducted by the Centre for Social Cohesion found that 32 percent of Muslims on UK campuses believe killing in the name of religion is justified.

A U.S. diplomatic cable from January 2009 quoted the same poll as saying 54 per cent wanted a Muslim party to represent their world view in Parliament and 40 per cent want Muslims in the UK to be under Sharia law.

The survey results, revealed by WikiLeaks’ release of thousands of U.S. diplomatic cables, suggests increasing radicalisation among Britain’s young Muslims.

A further U.S. cable, dated February 5 2009, said reaching out to Britain’s Muslim community there was a ‘top priority’ for U.S. embassy staff.

“Although people of Muslim faith make up only 3 to 4 percent of the UK’s population, outreach to this key audience is vital to U.S. foreign policy interests in the UK and beyond. … This is a top Mission priority,” stated the cable.

The February cable outlined a plan encompassing ‘engagement and community capacity-building’ to counter the possible growth of ‘violent extremism’ in the UK.

The outreach plan for British Muslims was published a month after a cable that revealed that while the community had grown to more than 2 million, unemployment rates were higher among Muslim men and women than in any other religion.

Muslims were also found to have the highest disability rates – with 24 per cent of men and 21 per cent of women claiming a disability – while the cable also cited statistics claiming Muslims were also the most likely group to be unavailable for work or not actively seeking employment due to illness, their studies or family commitments.

It was revealed last week that a U.S. cable from 2006 had suggested the British Government had made ‘little progress’ in engaging Muslims and combating homegrown extremism.

And the latest cable revelations of U.S. ambassadorial plan to empower Muslim communities to ‘mobilize against extremism’ and ‘build community resilience’ confirms the White House’s lack of faith in the British Government’s ability to engage with the UK’s Islamic population.

  1. I’m actually quite surprised at these polling numbers. If forty percent of students are willing to admit in an Infidel survey that they want Sharia Law, the real number is more than likely higher. I actually thought there were more “moderate Muslims” than that. Those numbers are grim. This is really on – isn’t it.

  2. Christians in Muslim countries are being systematically ethnically cleansed. They have no where to go

    Meanwhile we have a rapidly growing Muslim population in the West, that threatens to destroy the cultural and historic roots of Western civilisation by sheer numbers. In the end this will lead to a catastrophic civil war. To avoid such a catastrophe it is far better to have a civilised exchange of populations – Christians in Muslim countries for Muslims in the West. Else look forward to a bloody civil war that will Bosnia look like a garden party.

  3. The simplest solution to this obvious problem is to deport every last Muslim on the suspicion that they support sharia law and encourage sedition.

    During WWII and in previous wars, this is what was done to traitors, and worse…

  4. Yeah Chris it is on, and before the next decade is out the war will be so big and nasty that the governments will routinely be doing things that would currently get people arrested and thrown into the pen.
