Tragically misheadlined: UK wants to improve image with Muslims

LONDON - The British government would like to change the perception in the Muslim world that its foreign policies are hostile as part of reforms aimed at reducing terrorism, according to Cabinet documents obtained by a newspaper and published Sunday.

The Sunday Telegraph said it had obtained Cabinet documents that suggest the government aim for a ?significant reduction in the number and intensity of the regional conflicts that fuel terror activity.? In an ideal world, ?the Muslim would not perceive (Britain) and its foreign policies as hostile,? the documents said.

The memo, which the newspaper said was circulated to Cabinet ministers and security officials, also laid out a political wish list of sorts including stability in Iraq and Afghanistan, peace in the Middle East, and a nuclear-free Iran.

In an ideal world, Islamic Jihadists wouldn’t be trying to export Sharia law across the entire world. Alas, we live not in an ideal world. The “regional conflicts”, of course, are anything but. As I’ve said before, regional complaints are coopted by the Islamists out of convenience, but their ultimate goals are quite globally minded. Pandering to their local complaints will only embolden them, further paving the way for Europe’s eventual conversion.

British dhimmi’s still don’t get it. Jihadists don’t hate you because of a “hostile foreign policy”, they hate you because you are infidels.
