Alex & Alison appear to share an email address.

Waiting for Mary Rosh.

Yeah, I just live with a secular French-Moroccan guy who happens to have grown up reading the Koran, so his opinion clearly don’t count for anything.

Good grief, OP, would you just once start debating some of the points people raise rather than asserting the same bloody point over and over again? You still haven’t produced anything to justify your implication that I’m on the loony left (not true) and love Islam (very much not true, as it happens).

I just happen not to dislike Islam significantly more than I dislike the Old Testament (and as I think I said before, Judaism, Christianity and Islam all come from the same root as far I’m aware).

Or maybe it was wiped from my mind at the same time as I had my sex change?

I’m just posting this to get the number of comments up to 150.

None of you have read the Koran except me, so none of you know what you’re talking about except for Alex and Alison.

Dude. Did I get hormones and surgery and lose my adoration of stroppy women and nobody told me? I dunno, I turn my back for a minute…

Read the articles I have linked to and you can see that, in countries like India domestic movements akin to fascism have taken an anti-Muslim turn and raped & murdered thousands of Muslims. European fascism, in its modern Nick Griffen, Le Pen, or Haider form, is also anti-Muslim.

Your attempts to slur myself and those who agree with me with ‘fascism’ for standing up to Islamophobic bigots is akin to Stalin conquering the Baltic States and Eastern Europe in the name of "anti-imperialism".

A further point, Alex, if you look at history, you will see that the regime of Stalin was very much like a lot of other European dictatorships in the era. This does not mean that ‘communism’ is the same as ‘fascism’. It means _Stalinism_ has similarities with fascism. To claim Stalinism is the sole form or definition of communism is as stupid as saying that bin Laden is the sole correct manifestation of Islam or the conquistadors and Inquisition are the sole correct manifestation of Christianity.
