Ok, so if we take this rightly, are you suggesting that non-Muslims make
Islam's reactionary features a major focus point of our political activity
and critiques right now?  I have just been reading about the latest reports
of attacks on so-called Muslims (Because who knows and these attackers often
don't care or know if who they attack is even Muslim or Arab, hence the
murder of Sikhs!) in this country and I wonder if non-Muslims opening up
this attack does not simply find itself complicit with anti-Muslim or
anti-Arab/anti-Asian racism.

I do not have an answer, but I am queasy at the politial implications for my
own activity.  Could you amplify on that point Harald?

Cheers,
Chris
