Right Wing Clipped Again When Discussing Diversity

A study recently released, according to World Net Daily report, was sharply criticized by Muslim groups across UK universities.

"If ignorance and poverty are responsible for the growth of extremist views in the Islamic world, someone needs ask Muslim students, privileged enough and bright enough to attend some of the United Kingdom's best universities, why one-in-three of them endorses killing in the name of Islam.

The report of this finding, based on a poll of 600 Muslim and 800 non-Muslim students at 12 universities in the UK, and conducted by
YouGov on behalf of the Center for Social Cohesion, will be released tomorrow as "Islam on Campus."

Among its findings of Muslim beliefs:
-40 percent support introduction of sharia into British law for Muslims
-One-third back the idea of a worldwide Islamic caliphate based on sharia law
-40 percent believe it is unacceptable for Muslim men and women to associate freely
-24 percent do not think men and women are equal
in the eyes of Allah
-25 percent have little or no respect for homosexuals.
-53 per cent believe killing in the name of religion is never justified (compared with 94 per cent of non-Muslims), while 32 per cent say it is.

One quote from this article to ponder:


"There is a wide cultural divide between Muslim and non-Muslim students. The solution is to stop talking about celebrating diversity and focus on integration and assimilation." says Anthony Glees, professor security and intelligence studies at Buckingham University.

Really, is assimilation or integration intelligent here?

The muslims think it's the highest honor to kill for islam. It's brainwashing. Of course they don't want to see the truth on the other side.

Arlen Spector, Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe are proven Rino's and not conservatives at all
