“The reason we are finding it hard to win this battle is that we’re not actually fighting it properly. We’re not actually standing up to these people and saying, “It’s not just your methods that are wrong, your ideas are absurd. Nobody is oppressing you. Your sense of grievance isn’t justified.”‘
Gordon Brown has banned ministers from using the word “Muslim” in connection with the terrorism crisis.
The Prime Minister has also instructed his team – including new Home Secretary Jacqui Smith – that the phrase “war on terror” is to be dropped.
The shake-up is part of a fresh attempt to improve community relations and avoid offending Muslims, adopting a more “consensual” tone than existed under Tony Blair.
This bill was an insult to people’s intelligence from start to finish, and the elites are continuing to insult people’s intelligence after being defeated.

Thanks for the beautiful post up at my place, Raven. Luvz ya. Kender said he might pop by, too. That would be a good thing…wouldn’t want to leave you strapped all by your lonesome over there. The ‘gone fishing’ post is in the queue to go up tomorrow. I will be deleting akismet spam until I leave…will email you when I get back.
