Sadiq Khan MP on Muslim radicalisation - part 1

A British government minister has admitted that there is a link between British foreign policy and the radicalisation of Muslims in the UK. Communities Minister Sadiq Khan told Press TV that criticism of the government's previous denials of a link had been fair. But he told Press TV's Roshan Muhammed Salih that British foreign policy should not be used by extremists to justify attacks on Britain.

And today he is appointed Shadow Lord Chancellor and Secretary of Justice on Ed Milliband's front bench.

Would that be Secretary of Sharia Justice, British Justice, or perhaps a little of both?

My own view, and hope, is that Mr Khan will be strong enough, in spite of his muslim heritage, to encourage the many sensible, respectable muslims living in the UK to remain committed to a peaceful, law-abiding life, respecting the freedoms they would not enjoy if they were living in a muslim nation.

That's a very weak response to a very serious threat to British security and safety. We shouldn't have a muslim MP in charge of ridding the UK of muslim extremists - as he is clearly bias.

They keep talking about being radicalised by an outside force. This is not true - radicalisation happens when British muslims actively seek out terrorist material. The reason British muslims do this is because they WANT to be a terrorist.

Islam's a worldwide racist cancer. Muslims talk of their Muslim brothers&sisters so non Muslims seen as inferior& not brothers&sisters. Thus Muslims discriminate against non muslims. Ummah Wahida in the Qur'an(the "One Community")refers to all of the Islamic world unified.Quran says - You Muslims are the best nation brought out for Mankind, commanding what is righteous". Muslims breed faster.

Don't want wailing towers or people covered from head2 toe. Switzerland only democracy left in Europe.

YOU say our foreign policy is wrong - well clearly it is our domestic policy that is wrong!!

Sadiq Khan is in hot water this afternoon after it has been revealed lied to the press and to the Parliamentary authorities. He is paying back £2,500. Having had over a grands worth of greeting card receipts rejected from his Communications Allowance claims, Khan then went back to the printers and had them create a new receipt, for the same amount, but without the birthday cards itemised on them. This fraudulent receipt was then accepted by the Fees Office. Blatant and deliberate deception

So basically, according to Mr Khan all of Muslims problems in the the UK are "because their Muslims". All of their problems in the world at large are "because their Muslims". Of course the political ideology that is Islam and that masquerades as a faith has nothing to do with the violence, poverty and subjugation that is endemic in the Islamic world. Victimhood is very comforting and Islamic leaders like Khan know this well. Take the spotlight off the leaders failures by blaming everything else.

They don't seem to understand anything, as they have never lived in the real world.

 They are more concerned with what they can get in expenses, than anything else.

Only thing that radicalises muslim youth is Nazislam.

Nothing else.

[envsh03]

British foreign policy is the single biggest factor, which radicalises Muslim youth.

I dont think that the people in power, fully understand this!
