It is confounding to think that as recently as the last century, it required great courage and fortitude of one’s convictions to be tolerant, much less accept the “other”.  Now, Western civilization has reversed, and acceptance of everyone and everything is demanded of all, save for those perceived to have been victimized by Western intolerance.  Canadian prime ministerial candidates are required to address Sikh assemblies wearing traditional Sikh garb, even if the latter find themselves unable to abide by the simplest and broadest norms of dress.  Soon after his nation suffered a horrendous and unprovoked atrocity, an American president was required to clarify his tolerance for Islam and even argue on its behalf, even though the perpetrators were Muslim and the atrocity was well-received in Muslim countries.  Therefore, it came as no surprise that the British Conservative Party created the CMF, both out of a cynical struggle for votes and a Pavlovian need for multicultural and politically correct “credentials”.
 
Moderates or no moderates, Muslims in the West are not interested in abandoning their non-Western allegiances.  Muslim “moderates” are only concerned that the actions of their extreme co-religionists do not cause a backlash against them. They aim to manage non-Muslim majorities, not their own criminals.  Note their reactions to the atrocities in New York, London, Madrid, Fort Hood, etc., which consisted of feigned solidarity and attempts to disassociate these atrocities from Islam.  Instead of brainstorming ways to effect Muslim integration, we should be questioning why Muslims are allowed to reside in the West at all.  Do they enrich our culture or society?  Decidedly no: they import barbaric and divisive practices, especially as regards women and non-Muslims in general.  Do they improve our economic competitiveness or growth?  No.  In fact they only exacerbate unemployment and government spending on social programmes.  Do they bring with them any benefits that cannot be found in another immigrant group?  Certainly not; however, they have considerable problems that are rather unique.  All Britons need to temporarily bury the hatchet and “get the buggers out!”
