THREE-QUARTERS of British Muslims believe it is wrong for the UK to intervene militarily in Afghanistan and Pakistan to fight the Taleban, according to a survey by ICM.
And more than half (55 per cent) of the 500 questioned said it was not right for British Muslim soldiers to serve in the two countries. However, 78 per cent said they opposed Taleban attacks against Nato troops.

The Afgan war is a religious war. Well you could include Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran. It is none of your business. The USA has attempted to stop the conflagration. I would suggest that all Western European countries seal their borders and let the peasants get on with their revolt.

So let them show their disapproval by leaving this country.

If they did that they would not be able to kill anymore British non-believers as in 7/7!

The enemy within is deeply embedded in our society and are at this very moment conspiring to murder British non-believers again as they are directed to by their "Unholy Book", the Koran!

UK Muslims - They may disagree, but I bet you anything they will stay in Britain and live the good life instead of going back to Muslimland!

They oppose the war in Afghanistan because foreign troops are occupying their homeland.
