53. a late reply.....
bottom line I dont agree to any predjudice...i dont like it nor do i agree to it...but at the sametime its here its has to be dealt with on a realistic level....its a constant fight, not a zim bang and were done...

hence the solution is not via laws...its via the communities constantly fighting it..as each new generation grows up it is to be educated they should grow up with not just the education of equality but the actual idea and experience of meeting the "other"....

and i suspect more liberal societies have the irony of being more biased as people are free to express themselves as your examples have shown....

as far as the responsability of the muslim communities to weed out the bad...their responsability is no more than any other citizen...but they have the advantage that a jewish boy from scotland doesnt have.....they'll understand the language and culture..they'll be able to recognize the potential terrorists, they'll be able to reconize when something is "out of wack"

and if they do this....and they succeed, they will have provided to the British society something invaluable that may very well be part of the culture...an moment to look back with pride for the collective British country...just as many black, indians, japanese look back at their contributions to america during WWII with pride... a quick google shows quite a bit imagy with just that aspect of it....

and its those collective moments that change a countries collective view of many of its subcultures....not always there no guarantee....
