"You know that I have never criticised Islam "
You have described the Islamic religion as making its followers inclined towards having underage sex and the Muslim communities as harbouring terrorists.
You have claimed that an entire cultural population is "implanted" with sexual tendencies, and the only reason they are not succumbing is that they "suppress" those tendencies "implanted" by their religion.   
Time after time, you and your own particular sect have quoted from the Koran to prove that this is a religiously written and taught edict - it has been the whole basis of yours (end every single ultra-right website and extremist party throughout the world) attack on Muslims.
That is not only criticising Islam, it is presenting it as a perverting influence and describing all adherents as perverts.
GUEST.# is right - there are Muslims who do pose a serious threat to others.
Ongoing revelations show that there are Christians who have not only posed a great threat to others, but have more that realised that threat and, where they allowed to, would be as threatening as they ever were.
The same threat is present in the Middle East from those claiming to b e acting on behalf of the Jewish people.
All religions pose a threat under certain circumstances.
You even have your own propaganda machine, as they did.
You talk about "several thousands" of Islamists who see ordinary folk as targets"
It was announced in the press a couple of days ago that MI5 believed there COULD BE UP TO FIVE HUNDRED YOUNG MEN who might return to Britain to continue their Islamic crusade - so already the official calculated figure has escalated out of all proportion from your hate factory.
Given MI5s past record of who it considers a threat, its record of exaggeration, the fact that many of the inexperienced young volunteers are quite likely to be killed fighting - and the fact that the right-wing press have dredged up only three quotes from young men on a high from the battle front, of any of them bringing armed struggle to Britain, I would say that the likelihood of them doing so is virtually non-existent, and even if it was possible, the Muslim population as a whole would prove an effective opposition to any threat.
At the beginning of my lifetime, people were being sent to their deaths in millions because of their culture and beliefs
What is happening now - the spread of hatred towards different cultures and beliefs, is opening the way for a repeat performance of those horrors.
You and yours are part of that.
