Malik ... are the Cousins complacent?
The Cousins in the Great Satan - Gator excepted, I think ! - assume that their Muslims are not like everyone else's Muslims, and especially not like the Muslims of the Little Satan, Britain. Their Muslims are all settled, happy citizens who salute the flag; their mosques are just the meeting places for another religious denomination. Nothing spoken in those about the Ummah, and Allah's plans for Muslim World Domination! Of course, many of their Muslims are indeed "settled, happy citizens who salute the flag". So are many of ours. But what is the betting that the Cousins, too, have their fair share of Mad Mullahs and radicalised young men - and probably both of us have our "sleepers". Will the affair of Major Malik make them question this complacency - or was this another case of "nothing to do with Islam"?
