I didn't accuse them of hating it, Ake: merely of not seeing the potential harm their built-in unquestioned OK·PC attitudes are doing to it.

In reply to whoever it was a bit back, either here or on the other thread [doesn't matter which] who threw up past scares like "yellow peril" & "marxist takeover" & such at me to accuse me of scaremongering over this one: they were perils at the time, at that, but were overcome by resolutely facing them down. This one we are just happily walking into for fear of accusations of the dreaded boo-'r'·word if we even try to do anything to confront or disinfect the dangers.

Anyhow, a penny that comes down heads 50 times may still easily come down tails the 51st; and the fact that a dozen severe perils to our security have eventually come to safe conclusions doesn't mean that the 13℔ isn't going to get us. And this present one, by a combination of this complacent refusal even to recognise it as one by Unowho & Witsit, & the worldwide spread & potency of the ideology whence it derives, smells to me as if it might well turn out to be the one.

Musket will probably call this a racist statement because he's racism-obsessed, fitted out with his own infallible instamatic racist-detector [available, no doubt, online or at all reputable hardwares]. For some reason, eg, to his convoluted & inexplicable thinking, my perfectly accurate and incontrovertible vanilla assertion, that any well-intentioned & law-abiding Muslim might just have a relative who is not quite so law-abiding & well-intentioned, has him shrieking and slavering and foaming at the mouth that I must be a combination of Torquemada & Julius Streicher & Verwoœrd. Still haven't fathomed out what he's on about there.
