As for the mosques/churches bit - what a ridiculous point. I should damn well hope there are a lot more churches than mosques - this is Britain. How many churches do you think there are in Afghanistan or Iraq.

This is Britain you're right, and Britain's meant to be a democracy right? We've got the freedom to follow any faith we want or to make our own life choices so why are we attacking a race because there's a few areas which are largely populated by a certain ethnicity? They are citizens too and have the rights to complain if they feel discriminated against as we do.
We can't be a democracy and not extend the same rights to all our citizens due to religion.
The thing with Afghanistan and Iraq is that religion is basically written into law there while we have a lot more freedom to choose our faiths if any. I applaud the fact that Britian's becoming more multi-cultured each day, there's a lot of things we can learn from other cultures as are things they could learn from ours.
