BBC survey: War with Islam unjustified
2007-02-20
A survey conducted by the BBC shows that residents of Europe, North America and Asia believe there is no justification for war between the West and Islam, Army Radio reported on Sunday night. According to the poll, only 28% of those surveyed felt that the confrontation between the two cultures was unavoidable. Over half of the participants attributed the ongoing tension to political causes. In addition, 58% said they believed minorities were contributing to fanning the flames of the conflict. Over 1,000 people from 27 different countries participated in the survey, the report said.

#13  ...residents of Europe, North America and Asia believe there is no justification for war between the West and Islam...

Yeah, so tell islam to stop attacking the West. Bingo, war over.

#12  I am profoundly encouraged that even a farce of a BBC poll has to acknowledge 28% of respondents may be sane.

#11  Yep. The riots in Oldham in the summer of 2001 were caused by visiting Stoke City fans - allegedly.

#10  Now that is interesting, Ebbolump Glomotle9608. There have been predictions here that the football hooligans would be the first to take matters into their own hands.

#7  Most of these BBC readers have blind anger against "the man" so they believe everything is a conspiracy of the government to have an iron grip over the people. The rest are muslims who hate the west anyways. People wake up!

#6  The Tories are infected with the same PC bug as the other mainstream parties. Cameron is not Thatcher.

#4  Agreed we SE3 isn't as bad as West London or the East End biut the influx did seem to occur overnight - along with the disappearance of peace and quiet in my neighbourhood. A patriotic AND intelligent alternative to the BNP is required for the English/Brits to rally around.

BBC is left wing so dont pay any attention.From what i hear on the ground the average Joe is pissed off and frustrated with Labour and Muslims in general.Marches are needed by the English as the silent muslims wont speak out about the enemy within!!!!

#2  Ask the residents of London SE3 who've had thousands of somalis dumped in their area and I suspect you'd find a much higher percentage recorded.

#1  All that survey indicates is that 58% of 1000 people sampled from 27 countries deserve to end up like Daniel Pearl.
