Yo Alonzo, you know very well from my posts that I'm far from a Tenenbaum-Birdseye 'Jeremiah', least of all about Britain. I think the same can be said of Meerkat (despite his/her silly net moniker )

I do think that the mix of large, concentrated, newly self-aware, ethnically-conscious Islamic population centers on one hand and an entitlement-rich, stridency-rewarding, politically-correct political system on the other will produce situations, over the next 5-15 years, where laws that would not otherwise have been considered will hit the UK statute books.

I did not say the UK is islamified, just that it is more likely to become islamified than countries that either have a less self-assured Islamic presence or ones (take France) which tended to be governed more top-down.

If we regard the term 'phobia' as an irrational fear or dislike of something, then I'm not an islamophobe. I am against all theocratic movements and I am strongly against the imposition of any legal of customary restraints on the liberties of civilized peoples due to religious superstition, be it Islamic, Judaic, Christian or Jedi.
