UK: Wootton Bassett protest

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/jan/04/wootton-bassett-islam4uk-parade-troops

This is so disrespectful! I can understand the fact that they want to protest but the fact that this group Islam4UK is trying to hold it in Wootton Bassett is a disgrace. If this happens I am pretty sure it wont be a peaceful march which really defeats it purpose if you ask me. 

Yasmin Alibhai Brown was talking about this on the radio this morning, upset that people might take this to be the view of most Muslims in the UK. She said this group is the Muslim equivilant of the BNP, so hardliners basically.

Sad thing is, they're even way beyond the BNP, at least the BNP inhabits the recognisable world even if they're gits. They're more like the Combat 18 of the Muslim world - the people with ridiculous, out of touch and completely illogical ideas.

I mean, really, turning the Trafalgar Square fountains into a Wudu area?

Continues.. Home Secretary will back a ban of the march if police request it

I'm not far from Wooton Basset. I think it could be a nightmare if the march happened. It's a small town but it's close to Swindon.

It won't happen, they are just doing it to get publicity.

The group, which was founded by the exiled cleric Omar Bakri Muhammad, has a history of announcing inflammatory events and then cancelling them.
Last year it proposed a march in support of Sharia in Britain but abandoned the event claiming there had been threats of counter-demonstrations.

They don't need publicity.  They have something better.  10x the birth rate as the rest of society.  Britain as we know it today, will cease to exist in about 40 years.

It is a one horse town. Other half works at Lyneham and is constantly there for the re-pats. He seems to think there would be nasty repurcussions from the locals and Lyneham lads if this did happen..

Usual right wing sounding point claptrap!

And if you read the link you'll find that the group organising this have a membership of 50....they'd better get to work giving birth!

I do think that the march seems in extremely poor taste.  But I can't help comparing it to Fred Phelps and his Westboro Baptist Church, protesting at soldier's funerals. 

As reprehensible as nearly every American finds this behavior, there's no way to stop them doing it.  The only tactics have been to simply ignore them, or to organize counter-protests.  For example, I recall a couple of instances where groups of veterans on motorcycles have show up at funerals and basically made themselves a human shield, and kept their motors running to drown out the protesters, so as to somewhat spare the family.

While it's all well and good to ban the march, I think it would say a lot more if the community, including other Muslims, arranged a peaceful counter-protest.

And yet even if this were true (which it isn't) you're forgetting that these kids 90% of the time end up going to the pub, following the footy and basically acting British. You're really missing the point if you think that these parents have that much control over their kids. Occasionally it manifests itself in Islamism, but the vast majority of the time it just means these kids end up acting like the amoral western Britons who surround them.

Tell that to France that seems to have riots every couple of months.  And guess who's responsible for them?

Mainly the French - they riot over anything!

Actually I did a quick search on France Riots and the latest one I found was 2007....hardly every couple of months then!

The CIA?  The Freemasons?  Disney?

For the love of God, tell us!!

To be frank, as a previous poster has inferred, that's more a testament to their integration into French society than anything.

To go into greater detail, I presume you're talking about the French 'banlieues'. Even within those areas native French citizens are the predominant demographic and, indeed, they were the bulk of the rioters in 2005. The riots in 2005 were quite openly and self-consciously about the exclusion of the working classes from contemporary French society. If anything this represents the fact that the Muslim immigrants have been integrated into the general French underclass.

Those riots are a damning example of French society, but they are not a manifestation of Muslim militancy. That said, I doubt you'll recognise that no matter how much you look into this - you've made up your isolated mind and I think you'll stick to it no matter the evidence provided.
