Guest Iain C Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I don't have time to watch this video at work, but something I will say from my own observations of European converts in the UK - and this is backed up by several Muslim people I've spoken to - is that ginger people are disproportionately represented. Fuck, just go out on the streets any Saturday. If there's a group of Muslims preaching or handing out leaflets and one of them is European, odds on he's a ginger. My theory is that we (gingers) feel rejected by society and are thus particularly susceptible to romantic alternative identities (ie Muslim, Nazi, Communist, Fireman) Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/78520-my-brother-the-islamist/#findComment-1987038 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Iain C Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Just skipped through it and caught a glimpse of the hilarious Anjem Choudary - actually a former colleague of mine said that her cousin (or possibly another relative?) was married to him, and he was an arsehole. Which probably shouldn't come as much of a surprise.

mcbpete Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Saw that when it was on TV a few years back, definitely a worthy watch even if you've no particular religious inclinations. It reminded me of some of Jon Ronson's docs Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide all signatures I haven't eaten a Wagon Wheel since 07/11/07... ilovecubus.co.uk - 25ml of mp3 taken twice daily.
