The Versailles Memorandum

'Nobody really knew what the terrorists wanted. Kids, mostly, flying planes into skyscrapers, blowing up the Underground, bombing the Olympics. Nobody ever knew what they were after. I don't think they knew themselves half the time.'

'Oh, they knew,' Tom countered. His voice was quivering.
'Go and look at the news reports. They repeatedly told us what they wanted. It's just that nobody wanted to hear what they were saying.'

'To the American people and the people of the West in general, surrender to the truth of Islam, time is running out so make the right choice before it's too late.' (Ayman al-Zawahiri)







'The solution is from your side. I invite you to embrace Islam.' (Osama bin Laden)

The Archbishop of Canterbury last night backed the introduction of Sharia Law in Britain and argued that adopting some aspects of it seemed 'unavoidable.' Rowan Williams said that giving Islamic law official status in the UK would help achieve social cohesion because some Muslims did not relate to the British legal system (The Guardian, 8 February 2008)


In August 2006, a survey for Channel Four's Dispatches found that 30% of British Muslims would rather live under Sharia law than British law. A similar survey for the Daily Telegraph put the proportion preferring Sharia Law at 40%.

'They told us the "real problem" was poverty, or the Israeli occupation of Palestine, or the American war in Iraq, or racism in Europe, issues where they thought the west was at fault and where we could attempt to put things right. The last thing western intellectuals wanted was to listen to what the Islamist leaders were actually saying. That would have meant having to confront the threat head-on. Most westerners simply weren't ready to do that.'
