New British Prime Minister: Don’t Say “Muslim” In Connection With Recent Terror Attacks
Forget that it was actually Muslims who carried out the attacks, acting at the behest of al Qaeda leaders in Iraq.
Gordon Brown has banned ministers from using the word “Muslim” in connection with the terrorism crisis.
The Prime Minister has also instructed his team – including new Home Secretary Jacqui Smith – that the phrase “war on terror” is to be dropped.
The shake-up is part of a fresh attempt to improve community relations and avoid offending Muslims, adopting a more “consensual” tone than existed under Tony Blair. . . .
Mr Brown’s spokesman acknowledged yesterday that ministers had been given specific guidelines to avoid inflammatory language. “There is clearly a need to strike a consensual tone in relation to all communities across the UK,” the spokesman said. “It is important that the country remains united.”
Right. Let’s set aside reality lest someone get offended.
