"But whether it is lawlessness, family breakdown, the menace of drugs, binge-drinking, teenage pregnancies or merely the course brutishness which, as Mr Hayes suggests, has infested popular culture, the results of years of woolly-minded liberal thinking (with the licentiousness it has created) are plain to see."

Well if this is the way the world views us, god help us.

Inayat Bunglawala, media representative for the Muslim Council of Britain, said there are many Muslim parents worried about "some of the values and traditions in Britain".

Frankly, I don't think that advocating the beating of your wife is as particularly great value. Nor that death is better than life. Nor the fact that mothers have no rights over their children. Bloody hypocrits.
Just to add to that, I don't really value arranged marriages, marrying within family and spawning deformed children either.

That's great but look around you, there are plenty of people who have...and do...
I would not just place the mantle of responsibility on the shoulders of "Woolly minded liberals". The problem is much more insidious and widespread than liberalism

Same here Roy, but I suspect we are in a minority nowadays !

Again I agree OB. Somehow puts my original post into a strange context. Seems all cultures have light and dark sides. The trick is to promote the good and dissuade the bad.
Obvious really.
Oh god I'm rambling again !!

Yup, and I know what the shopkeepers, club and pub landlords in Benidorm, Torremolinos, Ibiza and the Greek Islands must think of Brits on 18-30 holidays !!

Re: basa agrees with Muslims !!!!!!!!
I have no problem accepting that some aspects of British 'culture' leave a lot to be desired. But I'm also a huge fan of 'those in glass houses etc'.... If you don't like the culture of the country you live in, sod off to one that you do like.

Well said, the muslim faith and muslim communities are not exactly pillars of decency -ask the the people who live under the Taliban.
And even if they do have "concerns" blowing us up isn't going to improve things

That's a bit of a generalisation. The Taliban have only ever ruled in Afghanistan, and they only lasted about 5 or 10 years. Even the mad mullahs of Iran are not as extreme as they were.

I can't, they might risk being 'disappeared' for speaking out
I'm not saying Islamic states are pillars of hope and freedom, I tend to think they are anything but. I'm just saying that generalisations that categorise the whole according to the most extreme examples don't do anything to improve our understanding.

Of course not. The sad thing is though that the suggested course of beating your wife and the fact that mothers have no rights over their children are not extremist - they're standard law that muslims follow in Islamic countries.
