  1. Michael Coren is great and I mostly always enjoy his shows and I definitely appreciate his efforts at exposing islam. However there is one point made during his show with which I disagree. Yes, it is unfair that gays go naked during the gay parade and are not arrested, agreed but NO. gay marriage is NOT a special privilege, it is an equal right.

  2. @ When pigs fly:Marriage is an an agreement between Adults. It is not a right. It is a right to disagree with it,but it is not against our rights to disagree.

  3. “No Shorts, No Barefoot, No Sleeveless, No Low Cut Neckline Allowed in the Store,” declare the English/Spanish signs that appear in stores throughout the Hasidic section of the hipster haven. The retailers do not just serve Jews — they include stores for hardware, clothes and electronics…

    “We have our way of life, and this is the way we want everyone to respect that,” said Shalom Cooper, a manager at Glauber’s Cuisine on Division Avenue.

    Orthodox men typically wear suits and black hats in public, while women dress in long-sleeved blouses and below-the-knee skirts.

    “We’re not concerned about the way women dress in Manhattan — but we are concerned with bringing 42nd Street to this neighborhood,” said Mark Halpern, who is Orthodox and lives in Williamsburg.

    It’s a good thing these are Jews rather than Muslims. If they were Muslims, Pam Geller would be screaming about the imposition of Sharia law.

    After many years of a negative portrayal, bias Against Islam and Muslims is deeply rooted in Western minds and it will be very difficult to eliminate it, Spanish journalist Yusuf Fernandez says.

    The Islamophobia is a real problem in the Western societies, not only for Muslims but for the whole society because it is a hatred phenomenon, which is harmful for all people. Today, many politicians attack Islam and Muslims just to gain votes and in some countries girls are banned to wear headscarves at high schools or work places. Opening a mosque is also becoming more and more difficult in some countries.

    Generally speaking, the image of Muslims in Western media is very negative and poor. When Western journalists speak about any issue, they are supposed to know the issue they are writing about. But this rule is broken when they write about Islam. They can then make claims that have nothing to do with the reality of Islam and Muslims. Muslims are presented as fanatics, terrorists or backwards people. Muslim women are presented as ignorant or submissive. These so-called “experts” ignore that Islam gave many rights to the women much before the Western societies did.

    There are extremists in Europe who are staunchly opposed to multiculturalism in the continent and are not afraid of physically removing whoever they deem threatening their ideology for a consolidated Europe free of immigrants and Muslims. The most prominent example was Anders Breivik who massacred 77 people simply because they had voiced support for the people of Palestine in a demonstration.

    Wait a minute here. Many restaurants especially in recreation areas impose dress codes on their customers. How is this different from what these folks are doing?

  4. I see how this is going to go.

    The Canadian government will make it illegal for anyone who is not a Muslim woman, to wear a burqa.

    As a follow up, the government will issue a burqa licenses only to confirmed Muslim women.

    This will allow only

    1. Muslim women to pass through airport checks without examination.
    2. Buy hard liquor or cigarettes without an ID check.

    Infidel women who would like these, will need to recite the shahada, thus showing to the world that Canada does not discriminate.

    You have only yourself to blame. That people despise Muslims and Islam, despite the incessant pro-Muslim propaganda from the BBC and other MSM, is the fault of Muslims and Islam.

    The general concensus is that Muslims should go back to countries that are more in tune with their traditions. The fact that you all stay here, moan and whinge while claiming Benefits, tells me that Muslims are not just parasites, but parasites with no honour or shame.

    If I emigrated to a country that despised my culture and ways, I would be ashamed to stay a minute longer then it took me to get out.

  6. Islam and Muslims have and will continue to contribute to British way of life. In the world of George Bernard Shaw
    “I have always held the religion of Muhammad in high estimation because of its wonderful vitality. It is the only religion which appears to me to possess that assimilating capacity to the changing phase of existence which can make itself appeal to every age. I have studied him – the wonderful man and in my opinion far from being an anti-Christ, he must be called the Savior of Humanity.”

    Tolerance in Britain is an illusion. The problem isn’t immigrants not adapting to British culture, it’s Brits showing much disrespect and scorn to those who are of any immigrant background. even if an immigrant was well versed in English, knew the customs etc. would they still get employment? No. Would Brits treat them as a decent human? No.

    So why would they want to assimilate into a culture that is constantly tearing them down?

    As far As English language is concerned, nobody is denying its value and focus should be on helping people learning English. Migrant community believes that an English language skill is key to ensuring equal access to services, opportunities and personal independence. The economic and social survival of bilingual Muslim community depends on English language but not at the cost of its mother tongue. It is a crime against humanity to deprive a community from its native tongue and cultural heritage. Muslim community is bilingual and does not believe in becoming monolingual Brits.

    Bilingual Muslims children have a right, as much as any other faith group, to be taught their culture, languages and faith alongside a mainstream curriculum. More faith schools will be opened under sweeping reforms of the education system in England. There is a dire need for the growth of state funded Muslim schools to meet the growing needs and demands of the Muslim parents and children. Now the time has come that parents and community should take over the running of their local schools. Parent-run schools will give the diversity, the choice and the competition that the wealthy have in the private sector. Parents can perform a better job than the Local Authority because parents have a genuine vested interest. The Local Authority simply cannot be trusted.

    The British Government is planning to make it easier to schools to “opt out” from the Local Authorities. Muslim children in state schools feel isolated and confused about who they are. This can cause dissatisfaction and lead them into criminality, and the lack of a true understanding of Islam can ultimately make them more susceptible to the teachings of fundamentalists like Christians during the middle ages and Jews in recent times in Palestine. Fundamentalism is nothing to do with Islam and Muslim; you are either a Muslim or a non-Muslim.

    There are hundreds of state primary and secondary schools where Muslim pupils are in majority. In my opinion all such schools may be opted out to become Muslim Academies. This mean the Muslim children will get a decent education. Muslim schools turned out balanced citizens, more tolerant of others and less likely to succumb to criminality or extremism. Muslim schools give young people confidence in who they are and an understanding of Islam’s teaching of tolerance and respect which prepares them for a positive and fulfilling role in society. Muslim schools are attractive to Muslim parents because they have better discipline and teaching Islamic values. Children like discipline, structure and boundaries. Bilingual Muslim children need Bilingual Muslim teachers as role models during their developmental periods, who understand their needs and demands.

    None of the British Muslims convicted following the riots in Bradford and Oldham in 2001 or any of those linked to the London bombings had been to Islamic schools. An American Think Tank studied the educational back ground of 300 Jihadists; none of them were educated in Pakistani Madrasas. They were all Western educated by non-Muslim teachers. Bilingual Muslim children need bilingual Muslim teachers as role models. A Cambridge University study found that single-sex classes could make a big difference for boys. They perform better in single-sex classes. The research is promising because male students in the study saw noticeable gains in the grades. The study confirms the Islamic notion that academic achievement is better in single-sex classes.

    GBS is the man who praised Hitler and Stalin. Both of them mass genocidal murderers. Mohammed is therefore in the right company.

    If Muslims wish to stay in the UK, they have tpo conform and adopt to the values of Britain or the West. These are values of tolerance to all, except the intolerant.

  8. Islamic people is breeding intolerance for anyone openly or bravely opposed creeping islamisation. And that is bad. Islamic people contribute NOTHING good to the British way of life. I have seen how Britain had became worst due to the intolerance and bad influence from islamic people.

  9. The stunt of having the kid buy the booze in a burka was great, it exposed the double standard and makes people wonder what else is happening.

  10. “How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen; all know how to die; but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science – the science against which it had vainly struggled – the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient” Rome.

  11. “I’m reasonably optimistic in America and Europe. I’m pessimistic about the Islamic world. I regard Islam as one of the great evils in the world.”

  12. Will Gladstone – Prime Minister of Great Britian:
    “Qur’an… an accursed book… So long as there is this book there will be no peace in the world.”

  13. Byzantine Emperor Manuel II Paleologus 1391:
    “Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached.”

  14. John Wesley:
    “Ever since the religion of Islam appeared in the world, the espousers of it…have been as wolves and tigers to all other nations, rending and tearing all that fell into their merciless paws, and grinding them with their iron teeth; that numberless cities are raised from the foundation, and only their name remaining; that many countries, which were once as the garden of God, are now a desolate wilderness; and that so many once numerous and powerful nations are vanished from the earth! Such was, and is at this day, the rage, the fury, the revenge, of these destroyers of human kind.”

  15. William Eaton on Islam

    “Considered as a nation, they are deplorably wretched, because they have no property in the soil to inspire an ambition to cultivate it. They are abject slaves to the despotism of their government, and they are humiliated by tyranny, the worst of all tyrannies, the despotism of priestcraft. They live in more solemn fear of the frowns of a bigot who has been dead and rotten above a thousand years, than of the living despot whose frown would cost them their lives. The ignorance, superstitious tradition and civil and religious tyranny, which depress the human mind here, exclude improvement of every kind.”

  16. David Selbourne on Islam

    “Of course, there are distinguished precedents even for the bleakest and coarsest of these judgements. To Montesquieu in 1748, Islam’s ‘destructive spirit’ spoke ‘only by the sword’; to Schopenhauer in 1819, the Koran was a ‘wretched book’ in which he had ‘not been able to discover one single idea of value’; to De Tocqueville in 1843, Islam was ‘deadly’,’to be feared’ and a ‘form of decadence'”.

  17. Andre Servier on Islam

    “Islam was not a torch, as has been claimed, but an extinguisher. Conceived in a barbarous brain for the use of a barbarous people, it was – and it remains – incapable of adapting itself to civilization. Wherever it has dominated, it has broken the impulse towards progress and checked the evolution of society.”

  18. these are wonderful and prophetic quotes Don.

    Really the only question that ever needs asking on this subject it:

    ‘Has there ever in history been a place where increased Islamic influence meant greater prosperity, liberty, invention, progress and civil rights for the citizens?

    Has there ever in history been a place where increased Islamic influence meant greater safety, medical progress, environmental protections and rational systems of distribution of wealth?’

    That pretty much should cover it for anybody. All of ‘Iftikhar’s cut and paste bloviating does nothing whatsoever to deal with the cold reality that more Islam means a worse place for every living thing in it, even the damn Muslims who caused this effect. Which is why they have to move ever outwards to infect a new social body with the Islamic disease as it kills every host it grows in eventually.

  19. Lord Tebbit on Islam

    “The Muslim religion is so unreformed since it was created that nowhere in the Muslim world has there been any real advance in science, or art or literature, or technology in the last 500 years.”

  20. I think it is true to say that nowhere has the influence of Islam been positive. It always brings genital mutilation, inbreeding, jihad, slavery, lack of vitamin d production in the wearers of burka, rickets, lack of exercise, sloth, and parasitism,and last but not least Islamic terrorism all around the world.

  21. Iffy why not take your ramblings to the Guardian, BBC or the UN or the local marxist leninist party or as they are known the socialist worker party . They love people like you and will give you a clap and a sweetie. Why waste your time here in this most hostile of infidel deserts. You have no chance of convincing any person here any time. Inshallah!

  22. Don:

    I don’t think he is here to convince anybody. In fact, I think he actually hopes he does not convince a single reader.

    I think the reason he is here, is to fulfill a certain criteria that Islam puts on its people, to offer us infidels a chance to convert before they start killing us. Once he can satisfy himself or his mustard buddies that he has done that, well let the games begin I figure.

    It is the only thing that makes sense. After all, he doesn’t actually reason with any of us. Just cut and paste a few talking points everyone on this board knows is crap.

  23. It is similar to the situation with all muslims. Why waste time at all talking to them. I know quite a few and rather than say something to get them all steamed up like “your prophet was paeadophile” I say just a few words to let them know I am not ignorant. None of us here are ignorant, and I do feel that when I demonstrate the knowledge I have with them there muzzie folks (without being provocative) they do appreciate that some people know all about Islam and it is the last thing they will do is to convert in order to become one with the Bangladeshis, Pakistanis, and Somalis the very bottom of the world and uk social ladder.

  24. People are people, regardless of where they were born, what color their skin is, or whatever religion. All deserve respect. Tolerance in Sweden/Britain is an illusion. The problem isn’t immigrants not adapting to British culture, it’s Brits showing much disrespect and scorn to those who are of any immigrant background. even if an immigrant was well versed in English, knew the customs etc. would they still get employment? No. Would Brits treat them as a decent human? No. So why would they want to assimilate into a culture that is constantly tearing them down? Multiculturalism is not about integration but about cultural plurality. It is not about separation but about respect and the deepening awareness of Unity in Diversity. Each culture will maintain its own intrinsic value and at the same time would be expected to contribute to the benefit of the whole society.

    British Establishment and society should concentrate on the evils of their own society and stop trying to change the way of life of Muslims. Muslim community does not want to integrate with the British society, indulging in incivility, anti-social behaviour, drug and knife culture, binge drinking, teenage pregnancies and abortion. Muslim children need state funded Muslim schools with bilingual Muslim teachers as role models during their developmental periods. There is no place for a non-Muslim child or a teacher in a Muslim school.

    Anti Islam propoganda in the Western media for the past 20 years, which accellerated after the 911, is having the opposite effect. Some educated people in the West mainly out of curiosity want to learn what Islam is about. When they approach their research with an open mind, probably most of them form positive impressions about Islam and some of whom rightfully convert. In the USA after the events of 911, convertions to Islam pheonominally increased maily in amongst the educated white community and a large majority of them were females.

  26. Most of us nonbelievers are forced to kowtow to islam out of no choice or out of fear and NOT out of respect. That is unhealthy and disgusting. The problem with islam is that too often islam forced disadvantaged nonbelievers into submission and that is not only harmful to our nonbelievers freedom but also to our nonbelievers rights to live a life that should be free from any unwanted negative intrusion that threatened our nonbelievers freedom.
    The fact that islamic people tend to abuse disadvantaged nonbelievers is also another sore point about islam. Many Westerners are ignorant of the too many harmful aspects of islamisation because they never live in a predominantly islamic infested country or in any asian country that kowtow unnecessarily and excessively to islam. After seeing how islamic people behaved towards disadvantaged nonbelievers, it is not surprising that many of us nonbelievers have NO interest in islam.

  27. Islamic people are only tolerant of meek nonbelievers who pander to islamic whims and fancies. That is also another uncomfortable fact. There are just too many brutal aspect of islam that make us nonbelievers feel uncomfortable and insecure.

  28. Islamic people should mind their own business in their own predominantly islamic countries instead of migrating to the West and causing so much backwardness in the West.

  29. The EU should make sure that its member states are multicultural to ensure the prosperity of the union, the UN’s special representative for migration has said. Peter Sutherland also suggested the UK government’s immigration policy had no basis in international law. He told the House of Lords committee migration was a ‘crucial dynamic for economic growth’ in some EU nations ‘however difficult it may be to explain this to the citizens of those states’. He said that an ageing or declining native population in countries like Germany or southern EU states was the ‘key argument and, I hesitate to the use word because people have attacked it, for the development of multicultural states’. He criticised the UK’s attempt to cut net migration from its current level to ‘tens of thousands’ a year through visa restrictions. Migration was a ‘crucial dynamic for economic growth’ in some European countries, ‘however difficult it may be to explain this to the citizens’. The declining populations of some EU countries meant that multiculturalism was not only inevitable, but deeply desirable – ‘It’s impossible to consider that the degree of homogeneity which is implied by the other argument can survive because states have to become more open states, in terms of the people who inhabit them.

  30. Islamic people push for multiculturalism due to its selfish greed for their own islamic community excessvely selfish and negative agenda is something too gruesome and had cause more poverty and harm to Europe. Immigration from asian, middle east or africa to Europe caused mostly negative effect and is a negative development and should NOT be encouraged in any way.
    Islamic people should NOT continue to deceive the West with its socalled version of multiculturalism.

  31. Islamic mmigrants to Europe tried to create a false illusion that immigration is good for Europe when in reality, islamic are just only enriching themselves and causing more uneccessarily horrible scene in Europe. Anyway, Europe is a small continent and do not need immigration from any huge alien communities from africa, asia or middle east .

  32. Migration could be a solution to economic problems. Migrants are “part of the solution, not the problems”. Migrants provide vital skills to receiver countries with a labour shortage and an often-ageing population and send home vast amount of remittances to their countries. At last British government seems ready to argue the case for immigration rather than treating it as a threat to be resisted. The Government says we need high levels of immigration to do the work that a booming economy has created. The Government believes that more young migrant workers because the native population is not growing fast enough. Its position is that there is no obvious upper limit to the number of settlers allowed in. Immigrants are the most enterprising, the most energetic and the most useful members of the British society.

    Foreign born workers make a “disproportionate” contribution to the economy, paying £2.5 billion more in tax each year than they take out in services. British economy depended on attracting overseas workers. Foreign workers represented 8% of the population but generated 10% of the gross domestic products. They made a net contribution to the exchequer. No modern, successful country can afford to adopt an anti-immigration policy. It is all our interests to harness the innovation, skills and productivity new migrants can bring.

    The remarkable linguistic diversity of the UK, reflecting our complex history, includes speakers of the indigenous and also of the languages of our main Asian, European and Afro-Caribbean communities as well as hundreds of small groups of speakers of other languages. Yet the multilingual talents of UK citizens are under-recognised, under-used and all too often viewed with suspicion. Our aims must be to recognise the opportunities offered by this multilingual wealth, ensure that talent is nurtured in future generations and meet the linguistic and cultural needs of individuals and communities.

    Amongst all the immigrants’ communities in British Isles, Muslim community has a distinctive cultural and linguistic pattern. The priority for the Muslim community is the preservation and transmittion of their cultural heritage and languages. Majority of British Muslims are from the Indian sub-continent. Their children need to learn Arabic as a religious language to recite and understand the Holy Quran and at the same time they must preserve Urdu to keep in touch with their cultural roots. They need to be well versed in Standard English to follow the National Curriculum and to go for higher studies and research to serve humanity. For this purpose they need state funded Muslim schools with bilingual Muslim teachers as role models during their developmental periods. There is no place for a non-Muslim child or a teacher in a Muslim school.

    There are hundreds of state and church schools whwere Muslim children are in majority. In my opinion, all such schools may be opted out as Muslim Academies.

  33. Multi-culturalism involves a level of complexity which cannot be understood from the prospective of any single discipline. Instead, historical, cultural, linguistic, political, economic, educational, sociological and psychological factors and processes all play critical role.

    Multiculturalism is not about integration but about cultural plurality. It is not about separation but about respect and the deepening awareness of Unity in Diversity. Each culture will maintain its own intrinsic value and at the same time would be expected to contribute to the benefit of the whole society. Multiculturalism can accommodate diversity of all kinds – cultural, philosophical and religious – so that we can create a world without conflict and strife. Britain can assume the role of accommodation and concern for all peoples, for our planet and indeed for our survival. We live in a rapidly changing world. Globalisation has increased the need to avoid stereotypes and misconceptions. Muslims cannot become Englishmen or Britons in any sense. The late Pim Fortuyn’s view of Islam as backwards because of its views on homosexuality, Christians and Judaism also share the Islamic view. Why did Pim pick on Islam?

    David Cameron speech on this topic was misleading, ill-timed, counter-productive. He has insulted the Muslims who is meant to serve and has demonstrated a failure to understand the Muslims and their faith. He looks what he is, ignorant, spoilt Etonian brat and extremely immature. He is totally out of touch with the common man on the street, be the Muslim or otherwise. His comment of “multi-culturalism has failed” has inspired yet more anti-Muslim propogander? He should be arrested for indicing hatred! Muslim community is shocked at the honourable British prime minister’s speech in Munich about multi-culturalism. The messages from the EDL in Luton and from Munich were the same. While alcohol-slurred chants of “E – E – EDL” and anti-Muslim hate speech too foul to reprint here could be heard up and down Luton’s town centre streets, another more urbane voice added its plum tones to the cacophony. British Prime Minister David Cameron gave a landmark speech setting out his vision for British Muslims. Does the government mean to say that it will not engage with any Muslim group or mosque that believes, for example, that homosexuality is a sin? Does it mean that any Muslim school that teaches the differing shares of inheritance to which Muslim men and women are Quranically entitled will be denied government funding? Does it mean that parents who do not wish their child to participate in mixed-sex physical education lessons, music lessons or sexual education lessons are closet terrorists at worst and an enemy of British society and values at best?
    Islam is the largest non-Christian faith in Britain, and has the worst press. It is the only religion about which it is permissible to publicly express uninformed hostile opinions. According to Lord Hattersley, fundamentalism is less acceptable when it is not European. Islam has been a focal point for the new racism, and remains on the edge of mainstream British life. The changing political and legal environment in western countries across the board has undermined the quality of life of western Muslims. Many face discrimination in the work place, are victims of racial and religious profiling, international travel has become difficult and risky. Islamic institutions, and particularly Masajid and Islamic Charities face harassment and unnecessary scrutiny. The murder of a Dutch film producer, the denial of a visa to the US for Tariq Ramadan and the humiliation deportation of Yusuf Islam from the US immediately on arrival are all front page news all over the world. Cryer caused great offence within the Muslim community by her pronouncements on issues of children not speaking English at home, and her criticism of transcontinental marriages. The choice of wives ensures that the children will grow up confident and familiar in both cultures. France officially mourns Pope but bans Muslim scarf. It shows the hypocrisy of French Secularism.

    Islam is not a culture but a body of principals and universal values. British Muslims are enriching the whole society. From the Middle-Ages, Islam has participated in the building of a European as well as British consciousness. The influence of Islamic civilisation on the literary and philosophical traditions is innumerable.

    The only bone of contention is education between the host community and the migrant Muslim community. The native middle class policy makers at DFE and LAs have given meaning to the multicultural education that is not accepted by both the communities. Native parents as well as Muslim parents are reluctant to accept multi faith assemblies and religious education based on Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism and Sikhism. The 7/7 bombers and majority of Muslim youths felt marginalised by mainstream culture. The teaching of citizenship needs to recognise and acknowledge differences between cultures. Qur’an says Allah has created diversity and we must accept diversity as divine gift. The Norway killer was angry at multi-culturalism and many Europeans are not so enthusiastic about immigration and multi-culturalism. This creates narrowness and anger and explodes in violent form through some individuals or groups. The only remedy is to accept diversity and multi-culturalism as part of divine creation and as divine gift. Also let us change our idea of finality of truth.

    Multi-culturalism is even more important and crucial after 9/11 and 7/7. Muslim youths are also likely to feel alienated by a focus on shared Britishness, rather than multicultural diversity. Rather than promoting a single British “us” teaching should acknowledge that “us” can be diverse and plural. Children should be encouraged to explore differences in appearance, history and religion to reduce social and educational fears. The pressures of multi-culturalism, racism, bullying and Islamophobia have forced the Muslim community to set up their own schools. Does the media label the troubles in Northern Ireland as Catholic terrorism, or Protestant terrorist, or Christian terrorism?
    No. There is bias and hate pointed right at Islam. As for race, why did white youths attack a Sikh thinking he was a Muslim? Answer skin colour. People see someone with brown skin and a scarf or foreign clothing and automatically assume they are Muslims

    There are hundreds of state and church schools where Muslim pupils are in majority. In my opinion all such schools may be opted out as Muslim Academies with bilingual Muslim teachers as role models. There is no place for a non-Muslim child or a teacher in a Muslim school. Such schools will be able to satisfy the needs and demands of the Muslim children and their parents.

  34. Christians should have the free will to remain Christians if they so wish .
    Islamics did not enrich any society in any way. It corrupts other society into blindly or ignorantly accepting inferior islamic dominances that are too often forced and meaningless.

  35. Islamics people are causing more divisiveness and distrust. Most islamics are racist brown people and too many brown people who are non-moslems have behaved horribly too, either due to horrible islamic influence or due to their asian culture.

  36. Many islamics people may have managed to corupt asian non-moslems via various tactics or due to similar asiatic background. But islamics are having difficulty convincing the West because the Western culture are more pro-freedom and very different from islamic culture.

  37. Multiculturalism had failed miserably because too often islamics around the world had failed to respect other cultures.
