Sharia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When you find the bit in it about killing anyone over their choice of partner, perhaps you could post it up?
For the last time, Sharia is the muslim version of the ten commandmants.
No, I'm not defending any 'honour' killings or any of that stuff, that is just social prejudice ( Oooh - where else is there any of that?

) taken to extremes.
Edit - OK, I read through that MoD piece, and the Iraqi guy refers to it as being a religious law - thats his and his countries social prejudice. Its not enshrined in Sharia Law - at least not in the UK's version. I certainly disagree with that fundamental interpretation being imported to the UK.
All the Jews I've met in the UK are a perfectly nice lot, with moderate views. Most of the Isrealis in Israel I've met are as unpleasant as you could not hope to meet - or at least, their prejudices are.
I accept that there IS a need to inform some of our muslim population that the social prejudices of their country of origin HAS to remain in that country.
How we do that is obviously up for debate.
