But it’s not all homecoming heroes in Britain. First, in business news:
From the corridors of power to high-street banks, Sharia finance is on the lips of UK policymakers, businesses and private customers… Changes to the tax system, unveiled in [the Chancellor’s] most recent Budget, will potentially make the UK a key global centre in the development of Islamic finance – a market currently estimated to be worth over US$500bn worldwide.
And on a not unrelated note:
Britain has been a victim of terrorism, but at the same time it is the largest exporter of terrorism in the non-Muslim world… One cannot help but place Britain, alongside Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Egypt, Algeria, etc. at the top of the list of countries that regularly export terrorists to the rest of the world. The basic difference is that the Islamists in Britain enjoy the protection of the law and the sympathy of many political figures in Britain.
