    And there was me thinking that party ranks were full of atheistic marxists, when all the time they're happy clappy, evangelical fundementalists. I bet Gordon Brown play tambourine while he sings a rocked up version of Abide With Me.

    If the USA etc want the world to be nuclear-weapon free then they should get rid of their own arsenals.

    Which conversely explains why the pre-dominanently Christian main Labour party wouldn't want a muslim country to have any nukes.

    The stench of colonial visions of grandeur are overpowering

    Is there a Muslim Labour group? If there is, are their views any different? I suspect the Muslim part determines their views about Israel or nukes for Iran rather than the conservative part.

    Only yesterday I was thinking to myself that Troll hasn't been about much with his cut 'n' paste antics.

    And as if by magic...

    started a topic Muslim Tories: 'Iran has right to nuclear arms'

    Muslim Tories: 'Iran has right to nuclear arms'

    Hmmm... not quite sure this is what David had in mind

    A body set up by David Cameron to advise the Conservatives on Muslim issues has criticised the Government's relationship with Israel and concluded that Iran has "legitimate" reasons for wanting nuclear weapons.

    The Conservative Muslim Forum also wants the compulsory history curriculum in schools changed to give "full recognition to the massive contribution that Islam has made to the development of Western civilisation".

    It also argues that preachers who advocate a rejection of democracy and its institutions should not be denied entry into Britain.
