FTFY

This is a cultural thing..... Also everybody seems to be wanting independence these days - Scots, Spanish (Basque region), French (in Canada), All those soviet states he broke off from Russia etc....

As somebody pointed out earlier, Democracy is a double edged sword... it brought about Hitler afterall....

Ok, that's not correct as it isn't Pakistanis who want an Islamic state, it is muslims.

Some pakistanis just happen to be muslims. Not all of them want independence either.

Please also remember Bangladeshis (East Pakistan) asked for, and received independence too, as did large swathes of Afghanistan.

Point being that the culture of the region has more to do with the "independence culture".

Also I think we can all agree Afghanistan should be left alone to be completely independent from everybody - everybody who has tried to interfere has been properly screwed.

Eh?

East Pakistan (Bangladesh), Indonesian muslims, West Pakistan (Pakistan), Omanians, Iraqis, Iranians are all muslims that have requested a shariah area of the uk. It's not a culture of a region, it is an interpretation of their religion.

V good point and it is points such as this that most people who are willing to pull the race card at any opportunity fall on their arses.

Just tell them you can't stand Yusuf Islam either that should shut the race card players.


It's a culture & class thing.

The Chinese & Sikhs/Hindus seem more middle class than the muslims concentrated in the sink estates.

This may be due to their selection via Visa applications in the 60 - 80s.

Interesting comment on LBC, chap who is an ex addict:

I was a successful Drug Addict and Drinker I could afford to take drugs and be drunk all the time. I associated with other successful drug addicts & drinkers.

I now associate with people who want to succeed in a different way.

so I think attitude is a major part.

Can you provide me one single example of Omanis (where the hell you got Omanian from I have no idea), Iraqis and Iranians who have requested as you put it a "Shariah area of the UK". Same for Indonesians - just one example.

Yeah - I thought Old hack wouldn't respond to this.

For your information:

-Iraqis in this country are mainly secular and come from various backgrounds (go find out their denominations if you haven't been watching the news for the last 10 years)
-Iranians in this country are generally not very interested in religion
-Indonesians really don't care for Shariah law
-there is probably about 76 Omanis in the whole of the UK - one of whom is the Wigan goalkeeper.
