Why shouldn't the muslims have their own place of worship? It's attitudes like this that extremists can use to radicalise young muslims. According to my sources, when muslims move into an area crime rate goes down, and before he retired the owner of a Halal take away and I had great conversations about his faith and mine.

As for the offensive remark by the poster two posts above this one, this is not a case of the government being over accommmodating. It is actually the oposite as it is a government body, the MOD who is objecting to a planning application.

Isolating this community is not the way to defeat the extremists as that plays into their hands, it is integration that is the key to defeating them, as I observed with conversations with the former owner of the Halal take away.
