While you're technically right about Sharia, the issues run much deeper, as with other multicultural issues. For example there is the problem of coercion of unwilling Sharia participants. Even the Guardian, the UK's most left-leaning paper, is not in favour of Sharia. http://www.guardian.co.uk/law/2010/jul/05/sharia-law-religious-courts#start-of-comments
BTW I think multiculturalism has worked fantastically well in the UK for thousands of years BECAUSE things like Sharia courts have not been allowed. If Japan opened up its doors it should also beware of such things.

They should move to the UK, where a woman can divorce her husband on a whim and live off his salary forever, even if she shacks up with a millionaire.

The slave trade in Sudan (ie the enslavement of native Africans by Arab Muslim Sudanese) is in full swing again, some 150 years after the British managed to put a stop to it. (How revoltingly arrogant of the British to impose their values on the Sudanese. After all, slavery is part of Arab culture, and all cultures must be cherished no matter how bad they may seem to arrogant western observers. Isn't that right, moral equivalence fanboys?) But the world's media doesn't give a damn, because the perpetrators are Muslim, and criticising Muslims (Arab Muslims to boot) is 100% racist and Islamophobic. And what's more, many of the enlsaved Africans are Chistian... so it's their own damn fault. The level of MSM disinterest in evident in this article, the main thrust of which is that George Clooney is bringing the taboo subject of Sudan up at all. But even given this golden opportunity, actual details of the southern Sudanese suffering at the hands of their Arab masters are omitted.

smithinjapan: As a total atheist myself, I find your moral equivalence absurd at the best of times but sickening in this instance. Copts have been the target of violence and intimidation for decades in Egypt, but the reason it hadn't reached the MSM is that they never retaliate (the MSM isn't interested in the fate of Christians.) The scale of violence has reached the point where even the MSM has had to take notice. Who are these 'radical Christians' in Egypt, and what are they doing? Answer: there are none, there are just long suffering Copts who want to be free to practise their religion, but are being intimidated by the Muslim state and actually murdered by Muslim extremists. Yet you still want to pin blame on them.

Kindergarten diplomacy from China and Japan. I'm sure Korea will weigh in too so that it doesn't feel left out. No wonder the US has to stand guard in the area.

Of course it was Al-Qaida, but their motives were more devious than most people realise.
(BTW, I also believe that Al-Qaida was set up by the USA, and that the invations of Iraq and Afghansistan were not only illegal, but stupid beyond all measure.)
The Islamic jihad, started by Mohammad in the 7thC, was put on ice, and Muslim military conquests in Europe (the Ottoman Empire, Spain etc) rolled back as the Muslim world fell behind the 'west' in technological and financial power. In the 1980s it was back with a vengence, as Iran's Ayatollah Khomeini tapped into growing Islamic confidence caused in part by Britain's creation of Muslim states like Pakistan, and the rise of the self-loathing leftish elite in the west.
With US policies as justification, and the Koran as divine sanction, Al-Qaida perpetrated 9/11. But there was also a seconday consideration. After 9/11, Islam could now play the 'victim' card (don't tar us all with the same brush, it was 'extremists' wot dun it!) This ruse has been swallowed hook line and sinker by the leftish 'elite', who now seek to accommodate Ismamic barbarity (eg preaching death for homosexuality and apostacy) in mainstream western culture, and who kowtow to each Islamic demand (not request, but demand) for concessions to Islam in many walks of life. And now the jihad is gaining strength. Islamic slavery of Africans (stamped out by the British in the 19th) is booming in Sudan, unchallenged by the dhimmi west. Islamic "Barbary" piracy (appeased by the US eventually but stamped out by the British in the 19thC) is back in Somalia. Islamic law, with its inherent persecution of non-Muslims, homosexuals etc) is being established, fully or partially, in many places all over the globe (even in the UK.) But becuase Islam has played the victim card so brilliantly, with 9/11 being the masterstoke, all debate about jihad is stamped out by the leftish thought police.

In response to my concerns of taste, and whether the site of the mosque is or isn't part of Ground Zero, the only responses I got were of the crass "IT'S THE LAW, GET OVER IT" variety. I was merely pointing out how ludicrous that is, since everybody challenges the law and politicians' decisions from time to time.

I think it's 'unbelievable' that you fail to see the distinction between morals and legislation. It seem you think that no law should be questioned, no politician's decision challenged. Orwellian, totalitarian conformity seems to be your bag.

That's their opinion, which many people disagree with. But of course, the letter of the law and the opinions of petty officials are now the only thing that matters to 'liberals'. More convervative than the conservatives.

Pat Condell, a left-wing athiest activist who's disgusted at the way 'liberals' refuse to critcise misogynistic, homophobic, confrontational and violent Islam, has some excellent points to make about the mosque (which, SushiSake3, is part of Ground Zero since it took a hit from one of the planes.)

Why? America has operated under a broadly Christian set of values since the beginning.
But anyway, Sharia Law is already in effect in parts of the UK. Muslim women in those places now have effectly no recourse to the law of the land. Instead, issues such as domestic violence are judged in Sharia courts according to Sharia values. Since wife beating is not only tolerated in the Koran but advocated (4:34) those women have little or no protection. As Islam makes further inroads into US life (and this mosque is a huge stepping stone) the full impact must be studied, or else the US will end up in the same sort of mess as the UK.

I am an athiest. All religions may say irrational things about the afterlife etc, but it's Islam's ideas about worldly life that's the problem. One by-product of this mosque issue is that many more people will research Islam and hopefully take steps to ensure that medieaval Sharia doesn't make it to the statute books.

I see you're cranking up the insults yabits.
If you took the time to read my posts you'd notice that I'm not particularly wary of Muslims, but of Islam, the ideology that acts as a catalyst for the 'suicidal radicals' you mention.
And I grew up in a town with about 5000 Kashmir Muslims, of whom some are still close friends. But even some of my friends think that women should be stoned to death for adultery. It's Islam that makes otherwise sane people think like that.

If you educated yourself about Islam you'd realise that rational Muslims (the majority) are the biggest victims of that hateful ideology.

@yabits
Muslims may be rational, but Islam is not. That's why there are, as you admit, 2 or 3 thousand "suicidal radicals" at large. Rational Muslims can't challenge them head-on because the "radicals" are the ones on sound Islamic ideological ground. Besides, you think 2 or 3 thousand "suicidal radicals" is nothing to be wary of? Sounds like you're suicidal yourself.

This is a tactic of PC drones, keep chanting the mantra and hope that everyone accepts it as truth. I note that Islamic apologists are always throwing down the gauntlet to those wary of Islam - "PROVE that Islam is violent" etc. Well here's a poser SushiSake3, how does the Islam of the 9/11 terrorists differ from mainstream Islam? And if you manage to explain that, how about explaining how those terrorists, and thousands like them, got to misunderstand so badly the religion they devoted their lives (and deaths) to?

Much of what you say makes sense; however, Islam sets itself apart from all other religions in two main ways. Firstly, it's a complete political ideology which aspires to be the only jurisprudence (Sharia) and secondly, so much of its doctrine pertains to non-ahderents of the faith (infidels.) The aggressive treatment of infidels (and apostates) is a major part of the Koran.

Asking them to build the mosque elsewhere is not 'extreme'.
The only measure that can be taken to prevent Islamic doctrine becoming law in the USA is to educate people about what Islam teaches and what Islamic law means to the people who have to live under it (and about whom nobody seems to care.)
That's subjective.
Look, it's no fun banging heads with you guys, being called a bigot and worse (right wing? Gettoutahere, you're dealing a with peacenik! Just one who's prepared to risk challenging modern PC dogma.) I'd be perfectly happy if the White House was bulldozed and replaced with a Hindu shrine or a Buddhist temple. But the thing is that Islam is not like other religions, and it's a great mistake to pretend that it is.
