UPDATE ON LUTON PROTEST

The Daily Mail is reporting a muslim extremist, who works as a casual baggage handler at Luton Airport, has had his security pass suspended after it was revealed he took part in the protest in Luton directed at HM Forces.  It pleases me to say that at last common sense is being used by some.

Many of the commenters on my last post about this incident berate me and suggest the post was attacking the muslim community.  It was not.  If it had been hindus, catholics, protestants or agnostics who had protested by calling our service personnel killers I would have said the same.  

Freedom of speech is one thing, calling our soldiers killers and butchers is another.  Our military should be defended from such abuse by all of us and I understand some did do this - much to their credit.  Two persons were arrested and neither belonged to the protest group.

OUR GLORY or OUR SHAME?

It's not often I'm angry because I consider it self destructive, but having read about the 'protests' which took place in Luton yesterday when the Royal Anglian Regiment paraded through the town, I'm not just angry I'm furious.  These homecoming parades are another American import that the public and the military don't particularly want, but we have a government who loves anything American, so they're here for the moment. Americans have a much greater respect for their military and the job they do to protect their country.  That is missing in the UK and the military don't want this public display, they only want to be home with their nearest and dearest and to have a full night's sleep for the first time for many months.  

These parades are not the reason for this post but they are the catalyst, because without them the public may not see the Islamic face of hatred.  The obviously well organised protest which these Islamic extremists undertook yesterday shows how far the Westminster government will bow to appease the muslim community in this country and they'll bow further no doubt, hence my anger.

The police didn't arrest any of the protesters who abused our troops; the only service in the UK who can't speak up for themselves.  The police, fire service and our other protection agencies have unions to speak on their behalf - our military have nobody, unless some brave retired soldier speaks out.  What I heard on the media last night from the police was something like 'if there have been any laws broken then we will look into it and make arrests if need be.'  If need be?  The Home Office  know the instigators of this protest and the police decided (don't ask me why because I may tell you), not to take any action against them.

The Times has details of this particular group who protested in Luton but the article also names names and suggests that further similar protests are being organised. 

How much longer is this government going to allow this behaviour from these fanatics who will not be content until the whole of the UK is under muslim control and law?  I know there are many muslims in Scotland and England who are ashamed at the behaviour of some of their own religion but they never speak out much do they?  We seldom hear a muslim community condemn this type of action although occasionally a muslim community leader will pop up and say they don't 'approve' but that's not enough for me.

Britain is the country which is famous for allowing freedom of speech and I agree with this in principle but when does freedom of speech become treason?  Britain is also a country based upon Christian values.  Geert Wilders wasn't permitted into the country to give a speech recently (although he'd been here some months before for that very reason) but Islamic extremists are allowed to insult and intimidate our military with the only response from Westminster being, at PMQs today, 'we all support our forces.'

We don't ALL support our forces Mr Brown, surely you can see that there is a contingent of people who hate us and our forces but yesterday were using our troops to express their feelings about you and your decisions.  Wakey wakey.

So I ask, is it our glory that we didn't disband these protesters once it was seen (although it was previously known) they would threaten our troops in this way or is it our shame that we're allowing our country to be taken over by people with a very anti-British and perhaps anti-western agenda.

If anyone thinks I'm racist writing this post then tough.  My culture and it is the Scottish culture, is important to me and I'll do everything I can to protect it, along with giving respect to our forces.  If these people threaten that then I would expect the Scottish government and the Scottish people to come down hard on them, very hard.
