If you've travelled, and think the Britain of today, with it's generous benefit culture, NHS, and sophisticated infrastructure, is akin to a 'third world country', I must arrive at the conclusion that you aren't very observant, or that you haven't travelled much in eastern Europe, Africa, Asia, or central and southern America.
Garinda, Garinda, you're doing it again mate, your taking thinks literally to devalue my opinions. The thread was about "Muslims 4 UK" intending to protest at Wootton Basset, as I'm sure you're aware this is the focus point of the true tragic cost of the situation in Afghanistan to the British people, seen on an almost daily basis. Now any right minded Britain (irrelevant of their creed or colour) should be offended & irate at this planned affront.

But we've ended up at Worldwide Fanaticism. That is also an undeniable truth, it can be found all over the Globe, but isn't the point of this thread despite the wealth of evidence you've provided to back up your entries. We are trying to establish peoples views on the planned (but now cancelled) protest that was to be carried out by Muslim "Fanatics".

Once more my friend you are mistaken, I am observant enough to see that you are re-phrasing my comments to suit your discourse on the topic. At no time have I stated that Britain is a third World Country which you infer here, the actual statement was "There are areas that are like a third World Country".( a small aside here : sophisticated infrastructure ?? which falls apart with a bit of snow ??)

As to travel I've seen parts of Eastern Europe, just after the "Iron Curtain" came down, and these were lands in the 20th century that still resembled something out of the 19th Century. I've been back since and as stated in comparison with UK there are Towns & Cities full of Opulence & Squalor both sides of the coin within a couple of streets of each other. As to the Middle East, the Home of the Muslim faith, how does Saudi, Iraq & Kuwait compare, again we have this gaping divide between haves' & have nots' this is also reflected in their standard of life & living.
