In my opinion, The fact that the author of that piece felt the need to translate the phrase Insha' Allah suggests to me that he/she/it knew the article was intended to be read by non-Muslims and so I'm inclined to wonder if it's ever so slightly sensationalist. Surely a truly revolutionary group espousing Sharia law in the UK would assume that its members, whilst not fluent, would have some rudimentary understanding of classical Arabic, especially phrases which some scholars claim are mandatory for Muslims to say when discussing future intentions. Even the name "Islam4UK" sounds like one of these straw-man "Liarbour"-type slurs the Daily Hate comes up with.
The locals have shown such dignity in their support, I hope they don't have to suffer aggravation from radicals/nutters from either side. Hopefully a valid reason will be found to stop the march taking place.

Unfortunately any attempt to prevent this happening will draw even more attention to it so either way now this group will achieve the publicity they desire.

im a memeber of the armed forces and been to both iraq and afgan i enjoy reading how we as soldiers are killing thousands of inoccent people and then are paraded around as heros.
these people no nothing of a war and are just getting on the band wagon because its in the public eye.
i would like to point out that the armed forces in the uk work under the geneva convention that has four states
The fourth Geneva Convention affords protection to civilians, including in occupied territory.
it is not the forces that use schools and towns as protection it is not the british that place road side bombs in populated areas.
let them have there march but of those who have a bit of common sense will not listen to what they say to try and change britian to there way of thinking.
any way rant over so if i offended anyone but im just sick of people slagging of the forces who at the end of the day are just doing there job.

was it not the taliban who were documented to have forced innocent Afghans into areas that were most likely to be bombed
and then our troops are then accused of killing innocent people
and then our troops are then accused of killing innocent people
If they are so distressed by the British, then just emigrate to Afghanistan as quickly as possible, so we trouble them no longer.
Sadly this will never happen as life is pretty sweet for them here.

If you look further around there site, you see more of the crap they are spouting about turning Buckingham palace into a Mosque, when they bring Sharia law into the Uk.
i say let them have there march, its exactly what the country needs, just to show this current Govt exactly what state this place has turned into, anyway id imagine only 10-20 people would turn up anyway.
just imagine the outrage though, when the veterans see it, at least they will know that what freedoms they fought for are being used...in a free world....my *****, the minority have the govt by the balls.
Liabour has a lot to answer for, for the state of this country, and the fact that a known radical organisation can even consider a march like this, proves how weak this country has become.
Im military aswell, ill be in Wooton Basset on Tuesday for the repatriation of the Royal Engineer Killed on New Years day

Hi Guys,
id just like to add a couple of point being a Muslim born and having lived here all my life..
Firstly this organisation is a very very small organisation that is actually very extreme in their views and agenda which in FACT Majority of Muslims in the UK are against... so by no way should you look at them as an example of Muslims or by any way let them put hate in your heart for Muslims.
Secondly its best to just ignore these type of muppets...imo they do not apply 10% of the Islamic principles in themselves or their daily lives, so in actual fact are just hypocrites... the reason why i say this is.. Islam also states that you respect the Law of the land you live in and respect the rules....
Finally i understand many muslim civilians and many soldiers have died in afghanistan and Iraq and the Lord knows who is to blame.. its easy to just follow the media and point fingers... but your right i guess the core intention of the soldiers is to go and 'help', whether the powers that be have a secret agenda is another story but we must respect anyone that has lost their life to help others.
Peace

well i have something to say which really annoys me. im a british born muslim and i would like to clear this up and you may flame me if you so wish.
BY NO MEANS DO GROUPS LIKE THESE REPRESENT THE MAJORITY OF ISLAM. This is just a bunch of small minded idiots looking to cause problems where they dont exist.
in the whole of the qu-raan there is no mention of this crap that people are doing. no does it say that muslims should suicide bomb places. in actual fact the quraan states that muslims should be peaceful. i no way condone what these groups of extremists represent and i am very confident that 90% of the muslim population in the U.K also feel the same.
it just a bunch of small minded people with small willies and small views. most of us just want to wake up, go to work, come home, enjoy ourselves and relax. im gonna be a father next month, and to be honest, i dont want my kid growing up with this crap all around. personally i belive that if you live here, u play by the rules and take up british culture.
and as for sharia law, it will never happen, as i personally know that every muslim i know personally is against it.
monster mat - your comment of buckingham palace, it will never happen, its apart of England and a part of british culture and i can guarantee that other muslims will back me up on this.
monster mat - the phrase "inshallah" is not a terrorist or extremist phrase, it simply translates to "if god wills"
sorry rant over. i just get annoyed when stuff like this flares up everyone automatically asume that all muslims are terrorists, im a nurse and the amount of times ive been askes if im a terrorist is outrages.

quick question to the 2 muslim posters. Would i be correct in think that the quraan teaches that there is one god and only one god.
The bible teaches the same thing but also teaches acceptance of other peoples beliefs. This country in ment to be church of england and as such has the bible has its holy book. Therefore acording to our holy book we have to accept other people beleifs including muslim beliefs.
If the quraan teaches only one god no matter what then a muslim, by religion wil not accept any other beliefs.
I wouldnt say i have studied religion but i did attaned church for 15 years and studied the bible a little during that time. I dont believe in god personally too many unanswered questions and no proof ( not saying its wrong to belive its just not for me). I have friends that are religious from morman to witnesses. I also spent about 3 years living slap in the middle of a heavily populated muslim area of manchester so have heard bits about other religions they are all pretty wel much the same to me i really cant see why there are religious wars at all. The bible is full of contradiction and half truths The whole reason of Jesus being born where he was born is questionable so right from the start its flaured. Religion, to me has just to many unanswered questions. Maybe its just me asking "but why" or "how" too many times.

yes your right, but nowhere does it say kill anyone who does not believe.
and yes you are right, Christianity and i slam are very similar. for example, Christians believe in Jesus to be the son of god. we to believe in Jesus, but in Islam he has a different name, and im sure you know that is the prophet Issa. a lot of the events in the history of Christianity are the same in Islam, but just told in a slightly different way.
for example
Adam and eve becomes Adam and hawa (however eve is recognized as a nickname.)
Moses becomes prophet Musa
Noah becomes the prophet Nuh
Abraham becomes Ibrahim
im sure you get my point. so i agree religions are very interlinked, most the evens are the same however just told in a different way so i dont see why there needs to be a war over it.
and eddieblock is right, religion will become the the worlds biggest killer purely because of the amount of the small minded people out there.
by the way, anyone know how long lexus birmingham take to deliver. lol.

hmm "the club chairman" of lexus owners club who states that he "is military aswell" posts a link about an islamic radical march taking place, shouldnt this thread be closed?? what relevence has it got apart from stirring racial misjudgment about muslims on this site or (if they are radical) increasing the hit count for that site?
its the first time that i have heard of this Islam4UK ...is there anything they have done or plan on doing that is radical?
i like the second comment on the site by an ex-solider : "Governments make policy, governments make war, it is the people who suffer the consequences be it British or Muslim, it is unfair and totally horrific for the families left behind on both sides. I sympathize with your view of the other side, but in saying that very comment you can as a human-being understand that a soldier is just a person, just a man/boy/woman or girl who has a mum dad and family who will miss them, please for there sakes aim your march at the government in London and NOT at the mourning families of wootten bassett."
i would agree with the other muslims on this site that have posted that you should respect the law of the country you are in etc but all these muslims are doing are marching for
"...the innocent Muslim men, women and children.
It is quite extraordinary, that with well over 100,000 Muslims killed in Afghanistan in the last 8 years... "
they are not marching for the suicide bombers, bin laden or the Taliban ....they probably have close family that died in the war, so why would these people counted as radical extremists if they want to open the worlds eyes to whats really going on? the high MAJORITY of muslims do not believe in the extremist actions (like suicide bombs, killing innocent people etc)

where exactly am i causing racial misjudgment...?
i posted a link to a site which is organising a march in a town that has shown great pride
YOU, are making the misjudged comments my friend, if you had read the post that accompanies the link.... you will notice at no point did i slander Muslims or Islam, but questioned the validity of the people, whoever they be behind this website
i have many Muslim friends, and fully understand that it is a minority that put an uneccercery burden on the majority of muslims, or any other ethnic group in this country
so what has me being club chairman, or military got to do with it, am i not allowed an opinion, or am i one of the child killers that goes to Afghanistan and Iraq....oh and Bosnia aswell
the post is about the proposed march on wooton basset, not for those with some racial issue to spout there poison......!!!
if you believe 100,000 men women and children have been killed in Afghanistan, ...................they are not proposing a March for inocent people, ..The group accuses British soldiers of "genocide" and fighting a "Crusade" in an incendiary statement on their website
the only people targeted are the militants who, for the majority are not from Afghanistan, and do not fight by any code of conduct, the military out there, regardless of which country they are from adhere to the Geneva convention (albeit there are a couple of idiots)
as i said the topic is about a proposed radical groups march on wooton basset
[b]The local Conservative MP James Gray has issued the following statement:[/b]
[color="#808080"]"The people of Wootton Bassett who turn out in rain or shine, week in week out, to honour our fallen service men, and I have been glad to be there for most of the repatriations, do so out of respect for those who have been killed in service of their Queen and Country and obeying orders from their officers and ultimately from Parliament. It is my experience that those who stand with me down the High Street are expressing really no political view on the war at all, either in favour or against.
For that reason, I, and I hope most local people, will equally avoid taking part in the controversy over any such planned march. I suspect that the police will not allow it to go ahead anyhow. But if it does, I hope that the people of Wootton Bassett will ignore it, and just go about their business in the ordinary way.
Of course I disagree with what these people are saying and reportedly planning to do, but it is my view that the best antidote to it is to ignore it, treat it with disdain, contempt, or even mild humour. What these people are looking for is a reaction of outrage. We should not justify their foolishness by giving it to them."

i like the second comment on the site by an ex-solider : "Governments make policy, governments make war, it is the people who suffer the consequences be it British or Muslim, it is unfair and totally horrific for the families left behind on both sides. I sympathize with your view of the other side, but in saying that very comment you can as a human-being understand that a soldier is just a person, just a man/boy/woman or girl who has a mum dad and family who will miss them, please for there sakes aim your march at the government in London and NOT at the mourning families of wootten bassett."
i would agree with the other muslims on this site that have posted that you should respect the law of the country you are in etc but all these muslims are doing are marching for
"...the innocent Muslim men, women and children.
It is quite extraordinary, that with well over 100,000 Muslims killed in Afghanistan in the last 8 years... "
they are not marching for the suicide bombers, bin laden or the Taliban ....they probably have close family that died in the war, so why would these people counted as radical extremists if they want to open the worlds eyes to whats really going on? the high MAJORITY of muslims do not believe in the extremist actions (like suicide bombs, killing innocent people etc)[/quote]
this is why it is in the general section.
plus to let u no the far radical of this group were at the parade in luton for the troops returning holding the manners calling the soldiers baby killers and women rapers and that they should all die.
most of these post say that people like this should just be ignored and that they do not hold the veiw of the majorty.
however a good topic is always worth it

Would parading past my local mosque carrying a coffin representing all the people killed by the Taliban on 9/11 be ok with you.
Or carry a coffin round any local muslim populated area representing all the soldiers killed in iran iraq afgan conflicts. Bloody dam right it wouldnt be. I have no problem with people making a statement about their beliefs but to do it in such a place and in such a mannor is wrong. The only reason for doing it in wooten basset is to maximise publicity, on the other side it will cause even more racial problems with the muslims. Like the muslim members have said not all of the muslims are extreamists but with protests of this manner, people will just hate the muslims all the more thats all of them not just the ones that protest. The comman man and more importantly the yobs on the street, who will retaliate wont diferenciate between extreamists and the "normal" muslim community. This protest i belive to be wrong in the place it is happening and shouldnt be allowed to happen. The police can stop it under any given law they choose. Hell, i was once told not to do a charity car pull as part of the route was on the main road, and doing so would be illegal. A funeral is one thing carrying empty coffins isnt a funeral,its an out and out protest and should be stopped or not given the time of day publicly to protect the "normal" muslim community

[url="http://www.islam4uk.com/current-affairs/uk-news/352--procession-march-for-shariah"]Visit My Website[/url] NOT MY WEBSITE ITS A LINK
just read some of the comments of the bottom of that page. Even the muslim people are questioning the validaty of that particular march. One person even asks for proofs of where in the quraan it say protesting is ok.
JUst proves that the people that run the site Islam4uk are real extreamist and not the voice of the comman "normal" muslim
I read many of the pages on that website an dhave seen demands for even buckingham palace to come under muslim law.
I also read one page were they cancelled a meeting to discuse the diffrence between muslim and christian beliefs as in their opinion the christian people who wished to attend "were not suitable" ha ha were strong intheir beliefs more like it. What a load of tosk the more i read abotu them the more i see they really are a bunch of extreamist. some of the things they prepose to imply are nothing short of racism and should be seen by the law as such and dealt with accordingly. The bnp are dealt with under the law so why not these extreamist.

Religion...the root of all Evil. Sorry guys but killing people or arguing for tooth fairies and Santa Claus is just plain stupid. See Inquisition, renaisance, and other historic times where people where killed for having different believes than anyone (i.e. Gallileo Gallilei) No offence to anyone I hope.

Mate, please don't take offence. I was not pointing finger to anyone in particular. Don't worry, christians comited horific crimes in the name of the almighty for hundred of years. Again...to believe that your own killings are in the name of god or something is just plain stupid. Religion was created by people to keep the social control and abide by their norms. I am not going to get into details (altough I could as i've studied this subject extensively) but back in the days people were stupid enough to believe and comit crimes. Nowadays, some do stupid things because some sick mind thinks that is going to make it fair. Belive me my friend (i hope i din't sound silly here) but the religion will diminish in time and you will see big changes within your lifetime.

Let them march. Ignore them or take the *****. It's called freedom of speech and it's what makes us better than they are :-)
[quote name='IZZZY' post='703653' date='Jan 2 2010, 01:38 PM']Hi Guys,
id just like to add a couple of point being a Muslim born and having lived here all my life..
Firstly this organisation is a very very small organisation that is actually very extreme in their views and agenda which in FACT Majority of Muslims in the UK are against... so by no way should you look at them as an example of Muslims or by any way let them put hate in your heart for Muslims.
Secondly its best to just ignore these type of muppets...imo they do not apply 10% of the Islamic principles in themselves or their daily lives, so in actual fact are just hypocrites... the reason why i say this is.. Islam also states that you respect the Law of the land you live in and respect the rules....
Finally i understand many muslim civilians and many soldiers have died in afghanistan and Iraq and the Lord knows who is to blame.. its easy to just follow the media and point fingers... but your right i guess the core intention of the soldiers is to go and 'help', whether the powers that be have a secret agenda is another story but we must respect anyone that has lost their life to help others.
Peace[/quote]
[quote name='ghumra' post='703654' date='Jan 2 2010, 01:49 PM']well i have something to say which really annoys me. im a british born muslim and i would like to clear this up and you may flame me if you so wish.
BY NO MEANS DO GROUPS LIKE THESE REPRESENT THE MAJORITY OF ISLAM. This is just a bunch of small minded idiots looking to cause problems where they dont exist.
in the whole of the qu-raan there is no mention of this crap that people are doing. no does it say that muslims should suicide bomb places. in actual fact the quraan states that muslims should be peaceful. i no way condone what these groups of extremists represent and i am very confident that 90% of the muslim population in the U.K also feel the same.
it just a bunch of small minded people with small willies and small views. most of us just want to wake up, go to work, come home, enjoy ourselves and relax. im gonna be a father next month, and to be honest, i dont want my kid growing up with this crap all around. personally i belive that if you live here, u play by the rules and take up british culture.
and as for sharia law, it will never happen, as i personally know that every muslim i know personally is against it.
monster mat - your comment of buckingham palace, it will never happen, its apart of England and a part of british culture and i can guarantee that other muslims will back me up on this.
monster mat - the phrase "inshallah" is not a terrorist or extremist phrase, it simply translates to "if god wills"
sorry rant over. i just get annoyed when stuff like this flares up everyone automatically asume that all muslims are terrorists, im a nurse and the amount of times ive been askes if im a terrorist is outrages.[/quote]
I too am a Muslim and agree with you peeps. It annoys me MASSIVELY that these few idiots spoil it for the rest of us normal folk

I, myself think its a complete disgrace
I am british indian (hindu) and i think the country we live should be respected by all..the british way.
I completely understand why people are against it and why english people are getting annoyed with such things day by day..
I have many friends from different reglions that are opposed to this, but groups like them make me paranoid that some english lot think all indians are the same..(3 common types, Hindu, Sikhs, Muslims)
I am 101% British and value the culture and rules of the country and for those who dont, then go to a country that suits you.

I am dark skinned (Indian descent). Though I am part Christian part Indian and lived in East Africa as a child when most countries there were part of British Empire. So I have lived in a colonial country, and due to it do have a British Passport (by birth). I have travelled and worked in many many countries, including Kuwait.
Anyway, it's getting quite silly in the UK now. I consider myself to be 101% british but in the last few years I am becoming more conscious of my skin colour. It's really sad.
People forget very quickly that if you want independance, want to right a wrong, it should be peacefully - take Gandhi or Mandella. In the end they won because they wore down hat they saw was oppression and largely took the whole of their country in toe. By walking through Wooton Basset with a Coffin are you really going to take anyone in Toe? All you would do is alienate further.
Whether it's ISLAM4UK or any other muppet wielding guns, they will not win! It's simple.
All this talk of Sharia for the UK- come on - what percentage of the UK population is really Islamic? It's such a small percentage, and even then how many of them would actually vote for a Muslim state here?
As usual, a small minority is making the headlines and people need to know that so that the other extreme (BNP) don't get any votes either !!
EDIT - the laws in this country do put the "Great" into Britain, but sometimes it allows the "Crap" to make far too much noise. The people who run that site and that propaganda were previously banned, yt the laws here just allow them to change names and carry on. I know that my behaviour like that in most o the middle east would see me jailed, deported or worse!
That Newsnight pogramme the other night with Paxman was brilliant!!

I am dark skinned (Indian descent). Though I am part Christian part Indian and lived in East Africa as a child when most countries there were part of British Empire. So I have lived in a colonial country, and due to it do have a British Passport (by birth). I have travelled and worked in many many countries, including Kuwait.
Anyway, it's getting quite silly in the UK now. I consider myself to be 101% british but in the last few years I am becoming more conscious of my skin colour. It's really sad.
People forget very quickly that if you want independance, want to right a wrong, it should be peacefully - take Gandhi or Mandella. In the end they won because they wore down hat they saw was oppression and largely took the whole of their country in toe. By walking through Wooton Basset with a Coffin are you really going to take anyone in Toe? All you would do is alienate further.
Whether it's ISLAM4UK or any other muppet wielding guns, they will not win! It's simple.
All this talk of Sharia for the UK- come on - what percentage of the UK population is really Islamic? It's such a small percentage, and even then how many of them would actually vote for a Muslim state here?
As usual, a small minority is making the headlines and people need to know that so that the other extreme (BNP) don't get any votes either !!
EDIT - the laws in this country do put the "Great" into Britain, but sometimes it allows the "Crap" to make far too much noise. The people who run that site and that propaganda were previously banned, yt the laws here just allow them to change names and carry on. I know that my behaviour like that in most o the middle east would see me jailed, deported or worse!
That Newsnight pogramme the other night with Paxman was brilliant!!

See Inquisition, renaisance, and other historic times where people where killed for having different believes than anyone (i.e. Gallileo Gallilei) No offence to anyone I hope.[/quote]
I do not agree with that.
In the old days when law, order and democratic systems were not as established, religion provided a kind of 'guideline' for people to teach them how to live together with eachother.
Whether one reads through the Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Buddist or any writings, they all are about respect for others.
Unfortunately, many people have used [u]the interpretation of[/u] religion for a war of power.
700 years ago, we (I am Catholic), went to the Muslim world to go and teach the Turks they should live according to our rules and how we thought you should think.
Nowadays, things have not changed. Religious rules have been replaced by the 'democratic' idiologies (idiocies ?) and some, e.g the US, find in that ideology a reason to go to other countries and invade them because they think their ideology is more right than the one the people in that country live by...
Unfortunately, there are many stupid people on this planet, especially those who feel threatened by others because they are ambitious but too intellectually challenged to live with their own limitations.
