Iftikhar Ahmad, you are dead WRONG!

Reader comment on item: Muslims "Lagging Behind"
in response to reader comment: British Muslims

Submitted by Moshe (Israel), Jan 11, 2007 at 04:30

"The Muslim community is suffering because of social and cultural problems of high rate of divorce, run away young girls, low academic achievements, drug addiction, drinking, teenage pregnancies, disrespect for their parents and elders, forced marriages and honour killings. It is all because our youth are cut off from their cultural roots and languages."

Wrong Ahmad! Just the opposite; it is all because your youth is still influenced and driven by your original bankrupt Islamist culture which sadly is incompatible with a modern civilized society.

"I blame state schools because they have never been serious in the teaching of Urdu, Arabic and other community languages."

Wrong again Ahmad! Isn't this just another typical demonstration of how Muslims are always blaming the whole world for their shortcomings and backwardness, and never assuming responsibility for their fate?
