Steve: I don't deny being an Islamophobe. Can't see it as any sort of pejorative. Actually, 2nd thoughts; yes, I do deny it. I don't hate them, as the -phobe suffix might imply. I'm just scared to death of them and anyone who isn't is a fool & an ostrich IMO. Have been into all this before 100x on this forum, & so won't spell it out here. I'll give you refs to previous more detailed posts if you want them; but I bet it'll be yet another case of 'cba'. And when you live, if you keep going long enuf, to see your granddaughter caned publicly 100 strokes on her bare bottom in Trafalgar Sq for showing too much ankle, hope you'll take some retrospective heed! It's what's happening in Saudi & N Nigeria & Yemen right now, you know.

There are billions of people who don't rob banks; so does that mean the ones who do can just get on with it?

I have looked it up, again, just now, in my Chambers. "Koran" is main entry, with a tailpiece saying "also Qoran, Quran and Qur'an", and if you look any of those up it says "see Koran". So stick that in yer ice·cold pipe, Mr Clever-Clogs. Er, I mean "dear".

Best regards as ever, me old Hen...
