How dare this highly privileged yet clearly insensitive and ignorant woman make such inflammatory and offensive comments? - she needs to look at the Muslim community and their very blatant antisemetism. And how about their flagrant homophobic attitudes and subjugation of women, not to mention their disdain of christianity?

In fact if you were to substitute the word Christian or Jews instead of Muslim in her statement:
"Prejudice against Christians is now acceptable" or "Prejudice against Jews is now acceptable", either of those would be more accurate. We already bend over backwards in this country in attempting to "understand" Muslims, many of whom appear to have no desire to attempt to "understand" our culture and traditions and integrate, despite the fact they have CHOSEN to live here.

To take offence at the differentiation between moderate and extremist muslims is for her to miss the point that the differentiation in fact serves to emphasise to people that they are NOT all being lumped together. Her attack on the public is ill conceived and warped and is itself discriminatory since she is clearly only interested in promoting the interests of those who share her faith.

If extremist Muslims are tarnishing the image of Islam with terrorist acts carried out in its name, then it should be incumbent on the moderate Muslims to take action themselves to distance themselves from such maniacs.
