"Members of the Calais Migrant Solidarity group have urged them to remove the clip from the Internet, stating menacingly: “You are not doing yourself a favour by putting it online as I think this is not what you came for to Calais…”

I do not think this is true as according to Islam, it is impossible for a Muslim to be violent

I think we should accept the old, women and children who are fleeing war torn countries not young men who should stay and fight for their country. They also tend to be the ones that are giving the other refugees a bad rap.

I'm guessing that's sarcasm? No one is perfect and no one claims that all Muslims aren't violent. Islam teaches us not to resort to violence however obviously not every Muslim follows this.

Not sarcasm. Islam states that a Muslim is peaceful and tolerant so that is why I can not believe this
Surely if the west actually satisfied the needs of the Muslim community by respecting the ideals and incorporating their needs into the system, it would be a better place?

Islam doesn't state Muslims are peaceful. It teaches us to be peaceful and civilized and says muslims should be peaceful. Just because they are refugees doesn't mean they follow Islam. They may follow a different faith or perhaps are muslim by name and do not practice it. We will never truly know. No one is perfect and these muggers are scum.

muslims need the west, so why would we bend over backwards to do so?

They deserve representation as they are citizens to. It is out of respect. If they want sharia law, are we not as moral citizens requried to give it to them. Freedoms are what we take pride in.

I already said I am not Muslim in another thread. I am an athiest. I just recognise that Muslims have rights too.

But that is not for us to decide. If majority of Muslims want it, are we not required to do so?
