how much help the richer countries in the Muslim world have provided during this period
Quite a lot
On the 14th anniversary of the most act I have ever seen - on The Twin Towers in New York we definitely should debate "No more violence"
No more 9-11's
No more Lee Rigby's
No more Boston bombings
No more machete attacks in our local towns
No more child sexual exploitation either.
No more discrimination, certainly not the sort that will see the police turn a blind eye to muslim attacks on white citizens but suddenly become very active when something goes on the other way.
Before I give you the wrong impression here.............I'd like to add..........NO MORE EDL or BRITAIN FIRST MARCHES THROUGH OUR TOWNS EITHER. They are killing our local economies and achieving nothing positive.
Why can't people just get along?
As a regular visitor to the UAE they have got a lot right. I've never been anywhere else where so many different nationalities, colours, religious beliefs, etc, get along so well. I believe the ZERO tolerance approach works there and is a big part of its success, many other 'softer' countries (UK very much included) could learn a lot from The Emirates.
The Indians, Pakistanis, Syrians, Lebanese go there for work, they work hard, they are rewarded for their hard work with a standard of living they are unable to get in their homelands, they appreciate that opportunity and the Emirates appreciate what they bring to the local economies, they do most of the building work, lay the roads, staff the airports and shopping malls. Some argue they are exploited and maybe some are but they have a choice to go back if they want, circumstances dictate that very few of them do.
