<DIV><STRONG>I think if you are gay or female or you just want to live your life freely you have</STRONG> <STRONG>every reason to <U>fear </U>Islam. on the other hand if you are a poor Muslim living </STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>in the East End you have every reason to fear the BNP and Muslim guest workers in France and Germany have a lot to fear from the EU</STRONG></DIV>

<DIV><STRONG>But the basic point being made on the site I think- and its not to say it might not have been set up by politically dodgy people thought it did not strike me being particularly pro capitalist apart from the lat point about Conservatives and they were simply being listed as one group among many - was that the term <SPAN><SPAN>Islamophobic</SPAN></SPAN> is being used by certain Muslim leaders to confuse the lines</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>between racism and criticising Islam </STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>So that any crtique of Islamic practices are equated for example with the use</STRONG></DIV>

<DIV><STRONG>By the way there are plenty of Muslims who are pro-Capitalist including all of the Muslim MPs plus the rulers of the Gulf states and supporters of Iran</STRONG></DIV>

Hmmmm, racist propaganda, in support of a Capitalist agenda.
Anyway, was anything decided re February.
As you probably noted the Curry price hadn't gone up, they just charged me
wrong bill, but sorted it before I left.
