I just think the situation is more complex then "KILL THE BROWN BASTARDS!". Isn't it funny that there only seems to be three or four people on this forum who are right wing and can give an intelligent, informed answer to questions, instead of resorting to clichés, stereotypes and insults?
Why is that?
Do you become more left wing, the more travelled and educated you become? I don't know.
The situation is not complex at all.
The more extreme Muslims in this country choosing Wootton Bassett to hold a march is no mystery. It's designed to inflame the feelings of Muslims and non Muslims in the UK.
This isn't about why we are in Afghanistan or the 'war on terror' or the rights and wrongs of it all. It's about causing more trouble. It's about keeping 'Muslim plight' in the public eye It's about spilling more blood on UK streets. It's about disrespecting the country they live in.
You're all for telling us how clever you are, but you can't see the wood for the trees.
Ah PB, I was wondering when you'd get a dig in.
The complex situation I was referring to, was actually the War on Terror, and not the march itself.
If you truly believe that their goal in this is to "insult the country they live in, and spill more blood on UK streets", then there's no arguing against that level of opinion. I would say, that their goal is closer to your original statement of "designed to inflame the feelings of people in the UK". Those are two entirely distinct goals, would you not say?
