    Really? What word is that?

    India possibly means beyond the Indus river.
    Bharat is derived from Bharatvarsha, ie. Bharata's kingdom.

    If you had taken the trouble to see my listed country, I have mentioned "Vasudha" as my country which actually means "The Earth" in Sanskrit. I am a believer in the old Sanskrit concept of 'Vasudhaiv Kutumbakam' (The whole world is a family).

    Its really unfortunate isent it? Same thing here in the US, anyone who dares to speak out against illegal immigration/massive amounts of legal immigration primarily from 3rd world societies is immediately labeled a "nazi", "KKKer", "white supremacist", etc. People wont even mention the issue because of the fear of being blacklisted as a neo Nazi racist.

    What was the outcome of the texan pig races? Isn't this Italian senator just a copy of YouTube - Anti-mosque pigs race ?

    The reason many people who criticise immigration are labelled as right wing nuts is because of the chosen language. For example recently there was a nice article in a well respected organ going on about Reading being "flooded" with legal immigrants but that the local services couldn't cope with, say, housing etc.

    Deep within the article the flood was 40 people, or, as it could also be described, "one coach load" of people and the "strain" amounted to a few thousand quid.

    However the right wants to use words like flood because it achieves their aims and tugs at imagery of biblical nonsense that some of the religious nut jobs espouse.

    One of the problems is that the loons shout to make themselves heard. Those that protest are almost by definition radical and a large number of said muslim radics are indeed inciting hate. It takes time to get to them because like other groups, the radical mulsims are a closed shop just like the organised crime world (which in other aspects some of them resemble) and the authorities don't naturally fit into either the circles of trust or have a means of infiltration. Once they do they act, or at least from the ones i have seen locally they do act. Can't speak for Brussels.

    As to that whole rape thing - shocking and ridiculous though the whole "how she was dressed thing" is, a couple of decades ago in the UK there was a famous all white, all "christian", all English, case were that exact statement came up, and astoundingly, it was uttered by a judge. A decade later I went to dinner in South East London with 3 absolutely wonderful chaps from L.A (all white, all god fearing blah de blah). A group of local girls out on the town and dressed (if you can call it that) to kill came in and the first comment out of my friends' mouths was "Aren't they worried they will get raped".

    Seems there are universal thoughts that goes through mens' minds when faced with cleavage and thighs.

    The fact that the same insanity is being uttered in such a case with "cultural" overtones is just propaganda by the right i am afraid. The fact the "culture" may claim it as a defence is just the latest spin on a tired old argument about women "asking for it".

    The audio is from a Dr. Patrick Sookhdeo and he is an interesting man indeed.
    He was born and raised as a Muslim in Gyanna, immigrated to England, became a christian and an Anlican priest, advises the british military on matters in Iraq, among other things.

    I am not sure how to go about linking this so,

    This is the audio File

    http://www.chbcaudio.org/podpres_tra...6/04-09-07.mp3

    I have never heard of this man before so I have no bias either toward him or against him but what he has to say was very informative.
    I guess if the Brittish military use him he must have reasonable credibility.

    Be warned though, this audio is 74 minutes long but at least you wont have to wade through a huge text, just sit back and listen.

    I would be very interested to hear your opinions of what he had to say.

    Cheers.
    would someone please advise me if an mp3 can be downloaded and how to go about it.
    BTW, I am not religeously inclined althoiugh that link may suggest it.

    Sorry to you all for stuffing up

    You could try this,, http://www.chbcaudio.org/audio/2007/04-09-07.mp3

    No, I don't have the right to protect my freedom if it opposes the faith of certain people. That's the impression I get.

    Interestingly, all faiths believe that they are somehow precious. One can question people who believe in a particular economic system, or perhaps those that believe in a particular scientific theory, but for some reason you cannot question faith - to question is somehow to insult it. All very odd.

    True. It is ok to call certain beliefs and theories bovine feces, but if you use the same word for a religion you will be called a Nazi.
