Response to Shaun: I didn't mean to offend Britain

Dear Shaun,

I am sorry if I offended your Britishness and national pride. I support the right of every nation to exist and survive. Britain has got the right to exist, and existing means rejecting Islamic influence. Again, forgive me for what I said about Britain. I ask all Britons to forgive me.

Think about it: Muslim nations have got strong policies against illeal immigration; India controls its borders and so does China. Moreover, Muslim nations are meant to be for Muslims, exactly as India and China are meant for the Indians and the Chinese. Britain is not suppoused to be a Muslim nation. I am not an imperialist. I don't want to tell people what to do in their own countries. But, I think that Britain should be worried about the Islamic influence. Therefore, I apologize to all Britons for what I said. But I urge you to tell that Abu Hamza to go home ASAP.
