Nonsense from Gordon Brown; Nonesense from Sir Alan

THE TELEGRAPH: Admiral Sir Alan West, the man appointed to the Lords by Gordon Brown to oversee security in Britain, has made a comprehensive assessment of the terrorist threat currently facing us.

In the interview we publish today, he says the situation is worse than it was when Eliza Manningham Buller, who retired earlier this year as head of MI5, warned that there were at least 30 plots involving more than 100 dedicated terrorists.

He says most of the active terrorists are foreign, rather than home-grown, but they are bigoted, racist and utterly ruthless in their dedication to commit mass murder "in the name of God".

He believes that the threat can be countered, but that it will take "10 to 15 years" and require securing the co-operation of all Britain's different Muslim communities.

Like Gordon Brown, Sir Alan detests the phrase "war on terror", and has vowed not to use it. He thinks it is important to describe the terrorists as criminals, rather than to identify them by their religious affiliation. Muslims have to join this battle (more)

BBC Paints a Very Wonderful, Positive Picture of Muslims in Britain

BBC: Some British Muslims fear they may be branded as terrorists - in spite of the fact that none of the people arrested by detectives investigating the failed car bombings at Glasgow airport appears to be British. Muslim voices on the bomb attack (more)

British Muslims In Denial Over 7/7

DAILY MAIL: Almost 60 per cent of British Muslims believe the Government has covered up the truth about the July 7 terror attacks, a survey reveals.

One in four believes the authorities or security services were in some way involved in the outrage.

A similar proportion say they do not believe that the four men identified as the suicide bombers were actually responsible, despite the fact that they were caught on CCTV and left 'martyrdom' videos.

The poll of 500 Muslims will come as a serious blow to Ministers on the day of a high-profile conference aimed at improving relations with the British Muslim community. 59pc of UK Muslims believe there was a cover-up over 7/7 By Rebecca Camber

Muslims Ignore the Lessons of European History Only at Their Own Peril!

The recent furore over the publication of the caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad is a wake-up call to the West. The West has been asleep for far too long, choosing to ignore the problems that the co-mingling of the secular with the intensely religious Islamic world will inevitably bring.

As abhorrent as these flag-burnings and cries for "Death to Denmark" and "Death to France" are, they should be welcomed for one simple reason: They show just how incompatible Islam is with a modern, secular society!

Europe needs to stop the insanity of allowing more and more Muslims in, and it needs to begin to think - think about the consequences of diluting a rich, historic culture with one secured firmly in the desert sands of Arabia.

But it needs to stop further immigration for a number of other reasons, too. Naturally, one of the most important of these is that Muslims, convinced of their own superiority, have no intention of assimilating.

This, of course, is bad news! Bad news not only for the Europeans; but also bad news for Muslims! Why? For one simple reason: Europe has a history of 'dealing' with ethnic groups which are seen as a threat. The last people seen as a threat were the Jews. We are all familiar with the story of the tragic and horrendous suffering of that people at the hands of the Nazis, an end which was the Holocaust!

My greatest fear is that Muslims could suffer the same fate as the Jews by pushing the Europeans too far, by insisting that Europeans change their way of life too much, change their way of life to suit their archaic, restrictive and backward mores. The fact that history has a nasty habit of repeating itself is known to most of us. How abhorrent it would be if recent European history were to repeat itself in order to safeguard the freedom of individuals and safeguard the rights of man!
