#3 If you were the Prime Minister of Britain, what would you do for British Muslims?

Hard choices all, but it appears they left out 5."cake" and 6."ice cream".

#4 You want your own province? Fine. Have it, then, and STAY THERE. But no, the preaching and the piousness and and the seething and the hand grenades always come creeping, seeping over the border into your neighbors' province and suddenly there is "unrest" and "separatists" and "activists", then "militants" and "plotting" and "the deaths of innocent bystanders", which inevitably leads to "unfair racist scrutiny from the government". STFU already and stop minding everybody else's business.

#5 GIVE them their own province. Let's set aside 50 square miles in the middle of the Sahara (if we have to take it from someone else, hey, what the heck - we're good for it). Fence it in with 30-foot high chain-link fence, electrify it (we can probably use solar power - not much rain or cloud-cover in the Sahara, and we could use a nuke reactor as back-up - who's going to complain?), and DROP THEM IN BY HELICOPTER. No gates out. No ladders over the top. Make sure the fence goes down 60-70 feet underground, with lots of motion-sensors.

If they want to eat, they will either have to ask Allah to provide, or they will have to grow food. If they want to dress themselves, they will either have to ask Allah to provide, or have to grow plant fibers to weave into clothing, or raise fur- or fleece-bearing animals to provide hair for spinning and weaving. If they want water, they'll have to ask Allah to provide it, or dig wells for it. We'll see how well they do...

#6 They want a province? How about a little place called al-Guantanamo? Ocean views, brand new facilities. What more could they ask for?
