You're right about the odds of a terrorist coming to get you, but the problem of immigrants not assimilating is ongoing. It's festering in the slums and ghettos every day and one day it will erupt like it has in France.
The Islamic dress issue is just a symbol of the assimilation problem and I think a statement by the government to the immigrants.... If you want to live here you must adapt to our culture, you will not force us to adapt to yours.
I may be wrong, but that's the message I get.  |
Wow this thread has exploded! Not for the good unfortunately.
Personally I don't think making such a fuz about 50 Burkas is worth while all the (international) attention. The suggestion came from a one-man party who is infamous for his Islamphobia.
I don't think Islam terrorism is about to take over the Western world. What we see is a backroom war produced by some fundamentalists which will eventually will fade away. Yes, probably there will be some more attacks like London, Madrid, but these are only incidents. Unfortunately some Western politician USE this phenomenon to stay in power and that's the whole problem. The more attention you give to this jihad the more popular it becomes. and you only keep it alive for longer.
International Islam terrorism should be fought where it ought to be: in the shadow of every days life by special forces. There was a big chance in Afghanistan but unfortunately the US blew it and is now reaping the bitter fruits.
Eventually the Western style democracy will survive in the world by Globalisation but only when it shows that it is a peaceful alternative. Now most Islam people think that the West is only there to concur their countries and use same methods like Abu Ghraib.
What the Pentagon is doing actually should have been done (and is done in many countries) by Microsoft, McDonalds, Starbucks.
Funny enough one of the first Islam country I foresee a democracy to rise is Iran...
