I don't feel lucky

In the latest manifestation of craven political correctness

UK telecom service provider has fired its employee Inigo Wilson for purportedly posting Islamophobic articles. (via lgf).

The main push not surprisingly came from British Muslim Public Affairs committee [Wiki]

The definition of Islamophobia in this case.

"Islamophobic" : "Anyone who objects to having their transport blown up on the way to work."
"Palestinians" : "Archetypal 'victims', no matter how many teenagers they murder in bars and fast-food outlets"

Therefore a satirical article if a little on politically incorrect side is converted into hate speech!

And then people wonder why is there resentment against adherent of a particular faith.

But considering how images of pig were banned last year and a visa application of a girl was rejected as her shoulders were bare and hence could "offend" this should not come as a surprise.
The dhimmification of Britain continues

All said and done, hats off to them...they are so well organized and get what they want...everytime!...Hindus should learn from them (in the positive way).

Hindus can't even fight for their legitimate rights...look at all the happennings in the US...
just one example is the California textbook event where three non-Hindus (anti-Hindus?) dictated what Hindu children should know about their religion.

But on the other hand, Muslims were ably represented by the Council on Islamic Education - and to my knowledge all the changes in the textbooks pertaining to Islam put forth by the CIE were approved...

Sharan,

Well yes, Hindus need to be organized, in a positive way ofcourse.

Million dollar question is how is this going to happen
