Also true. However, compared to you, I probably have a glass jaw...Which brings us back to the topic....
It would appear that the Europeans, namely the British, have "glass jaws. They seem to buckle under pressure too quickly.

Not something I've ever really noticed any Europeans being like.
Do you mean as a personal characteristic, or from a political point of view?

Political.
Same here with American Politicians. Some governments don't get caught up as much in trying to please all parties*.
If you had a "different" Prime Minister when Bush was putting the pressure to move into Iraq, do you think we would have had a different outcome with the Western Presence in Iraq? That is just one example.
*Not to be confused with "political" parties.

The problem with a large percentage of Muslims immagratns, they don't want to integrate into a country, they expect the country to integrate with them and accommodate to their specific needs, namely their religion. France has had a huge problem with their Muslim community, because they spread asscheeks and catered to every ridiculous whim in the beginning, now that Muslim community expects more and more; if those demands are not met, violence has been the outcome.
My opinion, if you're an immigrant into a country, you should learn that countries native language and you should abide by it's laws, regulations and standards (within reason), not the other way around. If you have a problem doing so, leave.

I'm not really sure, my personal opinion is that we probably would have done under any different prime minister from either the labour or the conservative parties. However, the Liberal Democrats have always made it clear that they feel differently about it.

I know that sounds bull headed and intolerant, but I fully agree. If I had to move to Japan for my job (it is a possibility), you had better believe that I would learn the customs and the language. Not only would I learn the language, I would learn how to pronounce the words properly as well. I find it frustrating to try and communicate with someone who has such a thick accent that verbal communication is almost impossible.

I am not sure what you mean but I think you are saying that you don't think it would have turned out any differently. I don't think it is just the UK that buckles under pressure from radicals, it is the US, France, etc.
Well, things such as radical muslims and Christians make me wish that religion became illegal.
The cultural assimilation thing definitely swings both ways.
More immigrants will obviously change a country's culture because they will add facets (food, etc.) of their own to that country's, but those immigrants should also integrate themselves by learning some of the basic living skills (language, laws, etc.) that are required in their host country.
The people who don't accept the first, and the ones reject the latter, will always cause problems. For those ignorant few, I suggest they be used for shark bait or poultry feed.

If that is the case I would like to know what European governments do it and what the specifics are. To me, abiding by your own believes of freedom and equality (even for filthy muslims) is not bending over backwards. Requiring people by law to do something you are generally opposed to, now that's odd to me. But I am sure you can lecture me about European governments taking it in the ass...I just wouldn't know of a case in Germany.

Sorry to be pedantic, but France actually does have a lot to answer regarding that conflict, more so than the Muslims, African or Eastern European immigrants. But I do agree with that you're saying in general.
I think the video has nothing to do with Muslims or with immigration. To me at least, it was apparent that he was talking geopolitics about Saudi Arabia.
For instance, with the money the royal family gets for oil, it creates mosques and charity organization that, while performing the social function they obviously would, spread a very strict version of Wahabi Islam. In many ways, this is why Saudi Arabia is the guardian of islam atm. They are spending as much money as they can to associate Islam with Wahabism, and have managed to spread the doctrine to the 4 corners of the world.
The point this guy made about European tolerance, wasn't that it was bad, or that Europeans placate too much, but rather that the Saudis understood how to manipulate it in order to set up their own propaganda stations for UK Muslims.
The Saudi's, through Pakistan's ISI, have funded the Afghan mujahadeen since the 80s, they support the Waziristan tribal groups against secular pakistan and afghanistan, they support the Taliban.
I honestly don't think concern over Saudi funded mosques, built on the premise of anti-muslim rhetoric, has anything to do with Muslims.
