Good Statistics On British Muslims.

Note: This posting is from the Guardian newspaper. It gives basically good statistics on the integration of British muslims as manifested in their support for the police and the anti-terrorist policies of the government.

Read on...



One in 10 Muslims 'ignore terror'
Nine out of then would contact police. That's good news. It's also good to see that two-thirds note the British Muslim community's failure to root out "extremists" as one factor involved in the continuing threat of jihad terror attacks.

Now what are those nine out of ten doing about the tenth?

Almost one in 10 British Muslims would not inform police if they suspected that someone of the same faith was involved in a terror attack, a poll suggested.
The ICM poll for the News of the World found 9% of the 502 questioned would not tell police if they had such suspicions about a fellow Muslim.

With a Muslim population aged over 16 in Britain of around one million, that would translate to 90,000 "turning a blind eye", the newspaper said.

However, almost nine out of every 10 (86%) would contact police, according to the survey.

Among young Muslims, the figures for keeping quiet were higher with 15% of 16 to 24-year-olds saying they would not tell police and 81% saying they would.

The poll also found that one in 20 Muslims thought attacks like the July 7 bombings were justified. And more than half (56%) said they did not believe a police warning that there are thousands of extremist British Muslims willing to carry out attacks here....

More than eight in 10 (86%) said the Prime Minister should shoulder some of the blame and 72% blamed non-Muslims for racist and "Islamophobic" behaviour.

However, two thirds (66%) said the Muslim community's failure to root out extremists was a factor. Meanwhile, 83% accepted that the terrorists themselves were to blame although one in 10 said they were not.




Comment: This story shows that the call for muslims to integrate and conform is supported by the great majority of muslims. The story is about Britain but readers can confidently assume that the figures for Australia would be very similar.

The opponents of muslim integration are the minority in the muslim community. A proper government would cut this minority off from foreign financial support and ban the entry to Australia of the poisonous Wahhabi imams from Arabia and Egypt who provide the impetus to oppose muslim integration and conformity to Australian norms.

Is anyone awake in Canberra?
