Its all very well to say we are islamophobic, and of course that has to be got rid of where it exists, but a lot of muslims also want to set up a community within this coun try which is semi-detached from it, and that has to be fought against too, for their sake as well as ours. I sometimes get fed up with people calling us racist when they try to separate themselves from us. It doesn't work. There is an inbuilt problem when this coun try finds itself in conflict of any kind with a Muslim country and a lot of muslims then can't decide whose side theyre on. For somebody like me who disapproves strongly of UK involvement in Iraq, it would never occur to me that my loyalty might lie elsewhere against my own country. With some Muslims there is a confusion of loyalty which in extremis ends up in teroroist attacks against what they should regard as their own people and their own homeland. That to me is a fundamental flaw in their approach , not ours
