"In fact it was so cowardly the Brits and their media are 'terror' stricken with these threats and blackmails from Islamofascists."

What a logical & rational statement. I suggest that if the Brits were 'terror-stricken'by these threats they would have begun withdrawing troops from Afghanistan & Iraq as the Spanish did in reaction to the Madrid bombings. They haven't. They might have changed a few laws to appease these religious nutters. They didn't.

Regrettably the Spanish caused the greatest damage possible to the 'war on terror' by giving the Muslims such a clear victory in their withdrawal in the face of Islamic aggression. That's 'terror-stricken'. Why would the Brits panic and quickly react to punish such statements? That would be the biggest 'red rag to a bull' possible as it would indicate fear. Obviously you can't believe that all the imams in the UK should be charged with treason for signing such a declaration - that would be utterly stupid. Especially when they have actually done us all a great favour in undermining their oft-repeated assertion that 'Islam is a religion of peace' and reinforced the growing belief that even 'moderate' Islam is a threat. These half-wits are steadily boxing themselves into a corner. They should be encouraged to continue making the rope that will eventually hang them.

Please provide some details of the physical manifestations of the 'terror' that you speak of. If you can. Which I doubt. Or name one Brit (there are presently over 60 million of us so it shouldn't be difficult) who can be identified as 'terror-stricken' by the demands of these impotent imams.

But I think we can all agree that the very last people on the planet that can offer advice on combatting Islam are Indian!
