Islam and the West

[Four Litre]

After the 'Trojan Horse' debacle and other extremist incidents that have made recent world history it has got me thinking and doing a bit of research.

From what I have uncovered on the internet/u-tube is quite shocking in itself and has stated in no uncertain terms that the west and islam are pretty much incompatible. This was based on exerts from the koran and a number of philosophies that islam is not just a religeon but a whole system of control, be it education, business, banking, lifestyle etc etc. This translated, states that it goes against what we in the west consider as our basic rights, bank with who we feel deserve the money, best service etc, gay rights, womens rights, methods of slaughter, freedom of speech, right to protest (peacefully). And the agreement to follow the law, and if not accept the punishment.

So is this the case, is it really never going to work? What needs to change to make it work or do we really believe that it wont, but are to scared to say so?


Edit: Government label all 'incidents' as carried out by extremeists. Is this really the case, or is islam in itself an extremist ideology to the west, therefore something we will never understand or learn to accept within our ideals.

Correct me if I am wrong, but nothing has actually been shown to be evidence of this plot, right? I know there was a letter suggesting it might be the case, but has any actual 'evidence' of this plot been revealed?

Wrong thread!!

Time for a thread resurrection!

So are we now starting to see the the basics of our civilizations are incompatible?

What used to be one of incidents seem to be becoming more and more common place.

Whats the solution as clearly this behavior cannot be tolerated any more.
