Almost every stat I find shows 20-25% support for/ambivalence to extremist actions meaning 75-80% opposition. Whilst that's a worrying level of support, it means that the overwhelming majority of british muslims oppose extremism.
Almost every substantial survey shows there is a large proportion of Muslims in Britain that believe in violence in the name of Islam, some 80+% believed the Danish cartoonists should have been prosecuted......... secularists and humanitarians my bum. All of what you say is provably wrong.
ICM poll
NOP poll
Here's a supposedly defamatory list of stats from ReligionOfPeace.com but even the worst they can come up with is 75% opposition to extremism.
And here's a list of stats from Daniel Pipes (anti-islamic blogger). Once again, we see 75-80% opposition to islamic extremism in britain. As it happens, he also includes the '78% support punishing the Danish Cartoonist' stats; those same stats that were criticised for being worded to skew the results in favour of an anti-islamic position. Interestingly, it also includes a number of stats which indicate that non-muslim brits might be less tolerant of muslims brits than muslims brits are of non-muslim brits

Quote:The cause is bad education and being poor, and/or, if our forefathers had have been better neighbours they wouldn't want to kill us.......... ABSULOTELY DISGUSTING ! and the only response its worthy of its to tell you it isHow is it disgusting to listen to what british muslims & sociologists are actually telling us that the problems are? How is it disgusting to look at all the root causes in order to fully understand the issues and devise comprehensive & appropriate solutions?
You know what's disgusting? Social profiling & gross generalisations based on ignorance & fear leading to knee-jerk solutions that cause more harm than good.
Sum ergo sum
