Compare and Contrast

Speaking of reasons to hate England, which I'm tempted to start calling "New France", compare the appeasement of the Church of England's bishops

A recent report commissioned by the church's bishops endorsed apologizing to Muslim leaders for the Anglo-American invasion of Iraq...

"Teheran might forgo a nuclear weapons capability if the EU-3 (Britain, France and Germany) delivered a suitably attractive incentive package," the report stated. "The non-nuclear weapon states need to be presented with rather more convincing arguments and incentives than they have been up to now, as to why it might be in their best interests not to go nuclear."

with this Jordanian Imam

A visit to the mosque that terrorist mastermind Abu Musab al-Zarqawi attended as a child suggests that the Al Qaeda figure made a big mistake in plotting Amman’s triple bombings of 11/9.

The sermon Friday at the al-Falah mosque from Imam Mustafa Suleiman was, in his words, about “the criminality of the attacks and how they were not in keeping with Islam.” Mr. Suleiman said that from now on he will no longer allow Salafis, members of the ultrareligious sect of Sunni Islam percolating largely from Saudi Arabia, into his house of worship. After midmorning prayers Friday, he even urged his minions to cooperate with Jordan’s intelligence services when they come asking.

Me? I'm with the Imam on this one, even if the English have better music on Sundays.
