A Really Good Deal For Islamists !!!
There's an article in MEMRI about an Al-Arabiyya TV Director-General who asks: 'Why Do Islamist Extremists Who Incite Against the West Insist on Living There?
Danged good question; I kind of wonder about that one myself.
His remarks, published in the London daily Al-Sharq Al-Awsat, continue:
I say let them go back to the home country -- the Islamist paradise which they'd just love to recreate in the West.
In the Middle East, you can get hanged, shot or beheaded for dissent. Here in the West, the only US newspaper with the guts to publish the Danish Cartoons was (oddly) the Austin Statesman -- but there was tons of air time, and inches of editorial space given to explain why the Muslims were so upset over the expression of free speech.

"What makes fundamentalist extremists, who incite against the West and its culture, the first to run into its arms, and to fight [for the right] to stay there? Do they suffer from a split personality, with one [personality] endorsing an ideology of hate, and the other wanting to enjoy the principles [that form the basis] of life in the West? We have never heard of [these extremists] wanting to immigrate to Somalia or Pakistan, or [wanting to return] to their countries of origin. [This], despite all their sermons and writings about religious duty and love of the homeland, [and despite the fact that] they characterize others as 'infidels,' to the extent that some [extremists] even call to fight [these infidels]."It's an interesting article, particularly the section titled "[The Extremists] Are Enjoying All the Benefits of the Regime They Despise," about half-way down the page.
"What makes Omar Bakri, who enjoys liberty in Britain, spread hatred [against Britain], fight its culture, and say obscenely that [Britain] is a toilet in which he lives in order to defecate there? Does it make sense for someone like him to express a desire to return to Britain after everything he has said and done?So, a British Prison is preferable to going back to the Lands of Allah. Somehow, I don't think all that critical about British Prisons.
"As for Abu Qatada, he prefers to remain in prison and not to return to his homeland Jordan ...just like [Osama Nasser], the imam from Milan, who is protesting about being taken to Egypt and about being imprisoned there. Not only is he protesting his abduction; he has also decided to sue for 20 million Euro in damages…"
I say let them go back to the home country -- the Islamist paradise which they'd just love to recreate in the West.
