From Here: Telegraph Islamic extremists have created "no-go" areas across Britain where it is too dangerous for non-Muslims to enter, one of the Church of England's most senior bishops warns today. The Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Ali, the Bishop of Rochester and the Church's only Asian bishop, says that people of a different race or faith face physical attack if they live or work in communities dominated by a strict Muslim ideology. The Muslim Council of Britain today described his comments as "frantic scaremongering", while William Hague, the shadow foreign secretary, said the bishop had "probably put it too strongly". Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg said the idea of no-go areas was "a gross caricature of reality". Writing in The Sunday Telegraph, Bishop Nazir-Ali compares the threat to the use of intimidation by the far-Right, and says that it is becoming increasingly difficult for Christianity to be the nation's public religion in a multifaith, multicultural society. His comments come as a poll of the General Synod - the Church's parliament - shows that its senior leaders, including bishops, also believe that Britain is being damaged by large-scale immigration. Bishop Nazir-Ali, who was born in Pakistan, gives warning that attempts are being made to give Britain an increasingly Islamic character by introducing the call to prayer and wider use of sharia law, a legal system based on the Koran. |

Let this be a lesson to us to quit bending over backwards to try to appease these people, and to stop letting people in from countries who wish us harm. |

I suspect it is the Bishop who is telling it like it is. Muslims are fast becoming the most influential religious group in all of Europe and they have been getting increasingly more violent and pushy about getting their way. America needs to stand up and take notice. If we don't wake up, it might be our streets this is happening in very soon. Did you ever think you could live to see the day that the Muslim Call to Prayer would be broadcast over loudspeakers in the cities of the U.S.? This has already been asked for and voted on by the City counsel (it did fail) in ; I think it was. Deerborn, Michigan. They will takeover if they are not stopped. |
