Britain is too soft

I live in the UK and get more depressed every day because of the attitudes of both the British public and government. I left the Middle East because I had enough of Islamic fudamentalism, only to find more of it in the UK.

Islamists understand political correctness and tolerance as weakness. They even understand it as an encouragement to do more terrorism. The attitude of the British left is always quoted by the Islamists as a proof of their right doing. The nonsense Muslims hear in their media is echoed in British media so they believe it.

Muslims are encouraged by softness, show them some real threat and they will shut up. Sad but true
