That's GOT to be the funniest thing I've read in a long, long time.
The UK police arrest 9 suspected terrorists and the muslim leaders are upset. TOO BAD.
Maybe they should try and teach their young followers that planning attacks against your own gov. doesn't go over very well ANYWHERE in the world.
And remind some that maybe IF the world had not done just what some are doing now....DENYING the threat....then hitler might not have gotten such a 'strong hold' in Germany/Europe either.
So now....we're trying to cut them off at the pass....and the muslim clerics are upset.
BE UPSET.

Muslim chief slams 'police state' Britain, like Nazi Germany
Feb 02 10:34 AM US/Eastern
A Muslim leader has warned that Britain is moving towards a "police state," comparing the situation to Nazi Germany after the anti-terror raids in the city of Birmingham this week.
But Mohammad Naseem, chairman of Birmingham's Central Mosque, urged Muslims to show restraint following the raids, in which nine suspects were arrested over allegations of plotting an "Iraq-style" kidnapping and filmed beheading.
"The country is moving toward a police state. That's not right. We have to change this," he said inside the mosque, where some 2,000 Muslims gathered for weekly Friday prayers.
"We can change this for the better by coming together, not by coming apart. .. Remain calm, don't get angry. Anger is a natural emotion, but Muslims should control it. We must never give way to anger," he said.
Speaking outside the mosque shortly before the prayer session began, he compared the current situation, and anti-terrorism legislation introduced in Britain in recent years, to Nazi Germany.
"The German people were told the Jews were a threat. The same thing is happening here. The Muslims are now the bogey people," he said. "It's a small community. It's easy to pick on them. That's what's being done."
Tempers are high after the raids, which were accompanied by allegations that the suspects were planning to kidnap and behead a British Muslim soldier, and post a video of the execution on the Internet.
Police were on Thursday given more time to question the nine suspects, all of them said by neighbours to be Britons of Pakistani origin, and mostly family men with children.

"While the democratic party complains about everything THIS President does to protect our Nation": "What would a Democrat president have done at that point?"
"Apparently, the answer is: Sit back and wait for the next terrorist attack."
