Do we really think the terrorists are that stupid that they wouldn't think to start using 'non Muslim-looking individuals' to carry out their crimes? <br /><br />A little more of the peaceful and tolerant society that all of us cherish seems to be sacrificed each day - we are told it is our way of life that the terrorists ultimately want to destroy and we are handing them small victories all the time.MECCAnopsis Cambricahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13740358832097503671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-619533046036022194.post-36304021130333366172009-04-22T10:14:00.000+01:002009-04-22T10:14:00.000+01:00When the Community Cohesion strategy went through ...When the Community Cohesion strategy went through our Executive Board which was the same day as we kicked the Contest Report out I did raise the issue of the contradiction between the two. The Contest Report was kicked out because elected members hadn't been consulted about it and they expected us to approve a strategy that committed the local authority to spying on " Muslim looking individuals who are acting suspiciously!!" <br />In this era of tolerance and diversity I find the government's deliberate policy of stigmatising and stereotyping Muslims as terrorists worrying.Plaid Gwersyllthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13986006252463873835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-619533046036022194.post-76422503167554617282009-04-21T19:08:00.000+01:002009-04-21T19:08:00.000+01:00My mistake.

WAG's CCS is still under consultation so still time to strike the right balance here in Wales. Justice should be applied evenly and entire communities based on colour, ethnicity, faith etc should not be criminalised for the actions of a minority of headcases.MECCAnopsis Cambricahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13740358832097503671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-619533046036022194.post-76595069090442601472009-04-21T18:28:00.000+01:002009-04-21T18:28:00.000+01:00Have you seen the Home Office anti terrorism strat...Have you seen the Home Office anti terrorism strategy, its called PREVENT, the only terrorists mentioned in there are Islamic terrorism, the government are increasing the fear of Islam.
