Sharia lite

There’s a standard line about America Alone, even among those who have a few reservations about whether Canada’s “Human Rights” Commissions should make it an actual ”hate crime”. The line is that my book is “alarmist”: alarmist, alarmist, alarmist, alarmist.

In the last 48 hours, the Archbishop of Canterbury (as discussed below) has called the introduction of sharia to the United Kingdom “inevitable” and advised that we just get on with it, while in the Greater Toronto Area it’s emerged that hundreds of polygamous Muslims are receiving welfare and benefits for each of their spouses.

So I’d be interested to know from The Economist et al, just what would alarm you? Or, to put it another way, it’s clear Canada, Britain and much of Europe have boarded the Sharia Train. What makes you think it’s a stopping service that’ll allow you to disembark at a station halfway down the track, rather than an express service to an inevitable destination?
