No word yet from Tarique Ghaffur on yesterday's anti-terror N raids. While Scotland Yard's most senior Asian officer was complaining to the National Black Police Association in Manchester about the 'unwanted' profiling of young Muslims at airports, his colleagues back at the factory were busy rounding up 24 people suspected of plotting to blow up planes.
All those arrested were young Muslims, mostly of Pakistani origin. Not that you'd have known it initially from some of the media coverage or from the official press conferences.
And the Mail notices the BBC's and the governments political correctness gone mad.
The BBC insisted on describing those detained simply as 'British-born'. The Home Secretary and senior policemen kept stressing that the operation and any terrorist atrocities which may have been thwarted were not in any way connected to 'communities'. [The BBC later inserted they were some "connections to Pakistan". Phone connections? Computer connections? Who knows]
To reinforce the message, we were also told that Two Jags — minding the shop while Tony Blair is sunning himself on Barbados — was hitting the phones reassuring 'community leaders'.
Which 'community' could they all be referring to? The gay community? The crown green bowling community?
Like it or not this is a Muslim problem, or more correctly, a problem with Muslims.
Read the rest, it's great.
I read where someone remarked, why doesn't the govenment consult with my community leaders or minister, whenever they arrest some white guy for burglary in my commnity. I mean, what if the guy is a plumber? Shouldn't all the other plumbers in my community get protection from the backlash that would surely befall them?
How many possible other terror suspects may have been missed because the police tipped off "community" leaders?
