Re: Young, British Muslims 'getting more radical'

When 13% of Muslims admire groups like Al-Qaeda and are ready to fight the west that translates into 208,000 willing to do so! A mere handful of radicals were able to carry out the 7/7 bombing with relative ease imagine what 13% of the radicalised UK Muslim population could do to the UK should they decide to live up to their desire to fight the west! It is frightening! There is nothing wrong with accepting reality and acknowledging the dangers of diversity in this regard!

Only the small-minded ideology-driven multiculturalists will condemn you for accepting this reality. Personally TBT, I prefer being labelled a fascist and a racist for living in the real world instead of being politically popular by choosing to live in a fantasy world of dogma and ideological ignorance.
I'm in agreement with you here. It only takes a handful to do some serious damage. And by simple %'s it is not illogical to think that way.

I understand why they would label me a racist or bigot but as you I'd rather be labeled that than become a victim of a suicide bombing. To me its exactly what you said...realism.

How things going with you man? Ive moved to Norcal, changed jobs, and got married since we last spoke.
