If you love Islam so much wouldn’t you be happier living in a Muslim country.

[Thinker]

first of all im not from the UK. and i grew up in the UAE . . . in Abu Dhabi,

Most of the Muslims in the UK are from Pakistan (I believe) and so I make presumptions.

OK Abu Dhabi, I have also worked in Abu Dhabi (albeit never long enough to move out of the hotel). You know spoke previously oy your right to speak out etc., and I agreed you have those freedoms in the UK. You alos then know, as I do, that I would not have those same freedoms in Aby Dhabi.

You are obviously a devout Muslim and will be happier living in a Muslim country. As an old man I would urge you to make the most of your time in the UK by learning the history (how did this country develop into what it is) and embracing the culture it will serve you better later in life. I can assure you that by the time you reach 40 you will look back upon your idealistic vision of a world where evrybody spends most of their time praying as immature.

How patronizing.

NOooo. I urge you to learn about the best country in the world and that's Canada !!!

Meh, learning about the history of any single country would probably be fascinating. What makes the western countries great in my opinion is the freedom of speech. If someone doesn't value freedom of speech, then the western countries wouldn't offer anything more than say Abu Dhabi in the_Prince's case.

This is a difficult question to ask as there is no nice way of asking it; whatever groups of words I use it could be interpreted as offensive - I mean no offence I just don’t understand.

The blunt question is:

If you love Islam so much wouldn’t you be happier living in a Muslim country.

....

I'm actually pakistani myself. Unfortunately my homeland (pakistan) has suffered from 20 plus years of corruption (due to a military coup). Currently, it has no leader, the economy is in a crisis, police can be bribed and the legal system is ILEGAL!

Other ''Islamic'' countries that come to mind are Afghanistan and Iraq. Both of which are currently being bombed. Then of course there is Iran - though this country has probably a year or so before it too gets bombed.

first of all im not from the UK. and i grew up in the UAE, in Abu Dhabi,

Prince tell the Pakistanis on this site what life is like for Pakistanis working in Abu Dhabi, tell them how their UEA Muslim brothers threat their Pakistani Muslim brothers?

I'd like to see every (UK born) Pakistani spend a month working and living in Abu Dhabi and then come back and tell me what life is like living in the UK.

How patronizing.

When you get to my age, its allowed.

Only 20 years - and the rest! And I can't see any reason why the next 20 years won't be just as corrupt. It's the same in Africa. Next time you're stopped by a policeman in the UK offer him a bribe (if you dare) and see what happens. That's just a small part of the culture you exist in and enjoy.

I have to say that I am always irritated by the colonial imperialist crap

.
This affects me how?

I would expect that every black person in ‘the west’ wakes up every morning and thanks God that their ancestor was taken (as a slave) from the destitution that is Africa and relative comfort and safety that is the west

Africa is a land mine of diamonds, and natural resources, I suspect if your ancestors weren't and aren't monopolizing and exploiting them still, Afirca wouldn't be destitute!

– I would. AND, likewise I expect that every Pakistani in the UK thanks God that England colonised Pakistan thus giving their parents the opportunity to move to the UK to raise their children in a place which is safe, secure and which provides standards and opportunities they wouldn’t get in Pakistan – I would.

I don't know anything about Pakistan, but I do know that your country has gone through wars priding itself on not losing a single British soldier, because the blood of those whom they have colonized in their parasitic settler style, was so much easier to expend!

To say that you or your parents suffered because ‘the old country’ was one a colony is, frankly, crap. If you think otherwise you have never been to Africa / Pakistan – I have.

My dad was a diplomat, so I have in fact traveled through most of the world, far east, middle east and was born in Tanzania.. so frankly the one full of presumptive crap is you !

cheers

Anyone can use that excuse.
Kids, teenagers, people going through their midlife crisis, old people.
Being rude is simply being rude, no matter what age you're at.

He meant of course as a wernicke's encephalopathy and Korsakoff's psychosis sufferer from all that beer he imbued in 'Africa'..
so perhaps we shouldn't be so harsh? ;D

Awkay, I lurked enough.

Mr.Thinker, let me first tell you that your condescendence is quite discomforting. Although you claim that your opinion has no shade of xenophobia, it's plain that it's not the case. You can't judge a whole community (Pakistani here) according to the nebulous behaviour of a handful stray black sheep. Plus, I think that you want every Pakistani or Indian person to be thankful to live in the paradise on earth that is England? Come on, it's an insult to your own intelligence. In the global era we live in, it's kind of archaic to cling to your utopias.

England is a little turd of an island.. I have always marveled how it manages to keep afloat, and then looked at her royals heinie's crown Jewels and see they are in fact stolen.. then looked around some more and found practically everything in that desolate mildew rain infested state is in fact stolen from some folks or another.. plus they require you to get a TV license? or something to that extent which really tickled me..
I wouldn't worry about 'thinker' it appears he needs to recover much of his gray matter to be on a level!

Clearly you haven't spent any time in Africa. Africa, the state its in and the reasons for that, is a subject in itself, I'd love to debate it with anyone who has lived there, lived amongst them and debated with them.

 

[Thinker]

I'm there now in a Muslim CountryD

So what's it like - are you enjoy prosperity, security and freedom?

Clearely you have a reading impediment?.. I have just told you I was born in east Africa, spent a chunk of my life in north Africa..

You are not debate worthy.. as the simple ethics of debate escape you!

lol.. for starters he enjoys the privilege of being at least bilingual-- seems even your mother tongue is a bit unmanageable for you?!

eh even with my best effort I unfortunately can't match you in puerility..
