As you have probably heard, "Red" Ken Livingstone the anti-semitic, anti-American Mayor of London has been retired by Boris Johnson. The Left-wing media and the Livingstone campaign have tried to convince the world that Boris is a light-weight. They, of course, did not mention his editorship of one of the UK's leading intellectual magazines, his authorship of many books, and his successful representation of a London neighborhood in the Parliament.
Radical Muslims took another course in trying to defeat Boris. They described him as a real threat to their radical ways. Read this marvelous piece by Paul Goodman, member of Parliament, and you will understand why Boris Johnson is an effective opponent of Muslims who seek to undermine British society.
Please post your comments of the Goodman analysis.
OF COURSE, every muslim is a human being. So were Stalin, Mao, and all Nazi leaders.
The point is that the radical muslims are a continuation of the WW2 Nazis, that were NOT vanquished after the end of German Nazism. The relationship between Hitler and the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem is well-documented. Hitler, in fact, bostered his anti-Jewish techniques at the foot of his muslim friends. The muslims even had Bands of muslim Nazis working and fighting with Hitler.
Those few genuinely decent muslims, who oppose this vile filth, are cowering in fear, and are meaningless in the equation.
IMHO, if Israel is to enjoy TRUE peace, they must either BOLSTER genuinely decent muslims (not likely) or expel all muslims from Israel.
The muslims have 99% of the Middle East in which to be at home with their head chopper friends. Let them live there, and spend their days blowing up each other.
Israel is too precious to waste on throw-back muslims, mentally residing in the 7th Century.

Critical mass applies - even when allocating a majority position. The so-called, alledged, but much needed 'good muslim majority' has not surfaced as yet, and it is a diservice to contrive it exists. We need to see blocks of muslim Jihadists, even muslim armies, apprehending their mass muderers. As yet, we have never seen them even mention by name the criminals enjoying safety and regarded as neo prophets. Muslims should give themselves a break and get a life: the over the top, virulent, exaggerated, false, almost hysterical obsessions of Israel still *OCCUPYING 12 %* of the soccer-field allocated her in the Balfour shoud be totally ceased. It not even be an issue. And Briton should come clean here and cease its dithering with her own history: stop addressing a deathly 3-state as a 2-state in Palestine:
'IT WILL BE A HISTORIC EFFOR FOR PEACE TO GRANT TWO STATES IN PALESTINE - ONE FOR THE JEWS AND ONE FOR THE ARABS' - W. Churchill.
Does Britain need a calculator or a history book?

After reading MK Goodman's article, I am convinced that there is a common htread to be found throughout the West regarding our relations with Muslims: respect the dignity of each person as a unique creation of the Almighty, and do not assume that every Muslim is an extremist. Having taken a seminar in Islamic civilzations back in the summer of 1983, I remember learning one key point: Muslims are people--humans as all other humans. Therefore, the needs of Muslims are human needs; the desire, human; the wants, human; the hopes, human. As with the adherents of almost every belief system in human record, some Muslims--the separatists--will take every every need, desire, want, and hope to the Islamic extreme in the case of Islamic extremists. Yet stereotyping every Muslim as an extremist is overgeneralization and ad populum thinking. MK Goodman's insights point out that the vast majority of Muslims should be welcomed in the West as positive contributors to society. I agree. lest we Westerners become as narrow in our thinking as the separatists who hate us and our way of life. Let the peace of all of our peoples speak for our societies and the hatred of those who cannot think beyond the box fade away as the Ken Livingstones who shall forever remain persona non grata in mainstream society.
