That would be 4 million germans identifying themselves as Nazis, 76 years ago as compared to only 300,000 at most who identify themselves as extremists in UK today. Wrong comparison.

I think what they are short of is a figurehead like the Pope who could condemn violence and lead them down
a peaceful path.

So only a third of a million here think we should be subjugated or topped. Phew, that's a relief.

There are currently 70 international organisations that are proscribed under the Terrorism Act 2000 - the majority of which are Islamist groups. A further 14 organisations in Northern Ireland were proscribed under previous legislation.

Ok- so you are happy to have 300000 Muslim extremists living in the UK then. That's alright then!

Islam is a peaceful religion. After they've been in action the roads are full of pieces!

You are a realist, detraveller, credit to you, but many here still think it is possible to stop the unthinkable, or at least slow down the inevitable.

given that at least 50 percent follow the deobandi teachings how did they manage to get such a 'representative' group of muslims.  Talk about a set up. Nearly all of them are very reasonable people but they are very young and totally unrepresentative of the  muslim population. Even more, not representative of its sect leader who rule the roost at their local mosques.

I am not watching this prog because I am watching a MI6 training film called On Her Majesty's Secret Service, but I hope it shows the peaceful religion of Islam in a good light, because as we know by watching the BBC that all terrorist attacks are carried out by mentally ill people of Asian origin, never Muslim terrorists. Muslims never do anything wrong. The Guardian, Ken Livingstone and Jezza Corbyn all confirm this so it must be true!

You are quite correct slicer.
By:

When: 12 Dec 16 21:42
quite mobo.

the problem is that there is a massive selection bias. deobandis wouldn't appear on this program.

it is amazing that trevor phillips survey ("what muslims really think") where they surveyed muslims from wards with a greater than 20% muslim population received pretty stern condemnation as being implicitly racist because of apparently flawed sampling techniques, but no doubt this program will be lauded for showing british muslims in a fair and positive light.

the answer, like most things in life, is neither black nor white, it's a shade of grey, and programs like this make no attempt to find out exactly which shade.

It would have been so much better, for propaganda purposes, to have excluded the zealot and just had gay, uncovered women and young comedians. It would show muslims in a much kinder light.

And where are the guys who drink alcohol??  I have been out with muslims of various ages. One a good friend.  They all enjoyed a few pints.   Very remiss of the bbc to exclude this group.
