It common sense that dhimmitude would be in London. Appeasement worked so well prior to world war 2 that we should be doing it now. Oh , wait appeasement did not work , did it ! The British people were told if they just give in a little that every thing would be ok and that if they did not give in a bit that there would be trouble and they would be the cause of the problem.
Now the same thing is happening. Radical islam is telling us to do certain things and if we are submissive and do as the islamofacists tell us then we will be ok. Sadly there are westerners who think this will work. Look to the number of people in the west who blamed the west for September 11 th . They say " Well we supported Israel , so September 11 is our pay back for this wrongful choice to support Israel ( the only place in the whole Middle East that respects Christians' rights ) and we should not help the Jews again or we will be to blame for more attacks on our selves.
In the future we will be asked by the muslims to give up more and more. Please remember appeasement does not work on people who do not wish to be appeased.
