Islamic rules imposed on non-Muslims

Non-Muslim members of a town’s council have been informed by e-mail they need to follow the strict fasting requirements of Islam during Ramadan because their Muslim colleagues are.

“Once again the selfishness of Islam has struck non-Muslims,” said a commentary at Islam in Action 08, which reported on the issue. “Muslims continue to show us that they have no respect for the beliefs of non-Muslims nor can they be trusted. They were given trust by being voted into these positions and now they are using the power given to them against non-Muslims.”

According to a report in the Daily Mail the orders came from officials at the East London municipality called Tower Hamlets.

The town has established a reputation for being progressive by calling its get-together for staff at Christmas a “festive meal.” But now the e-mail instructions say drink and food should be restricted – for all council members no matter their religion – during Ramadan, and other accommodations are being made for Muslims.

On the paper’s comment page, one participant said, “I do not care what a person (sic) faith is – just DO NOT impose them on me. … WHAT NEXT I ask!”

What’s next, impose Islamic rules on all Non-Muslims in a town with a large number of Muslims? Islam is a religion of force, not competely unlike how the Democrat Party acted in Denver, and when they think they have enough numbers and power in a town or a nation (See Indonesia, a religiously tolerant, ha ha, nation), they always force non-Muslims to respect their faith and follow its rules. Funny, when Muslims are in the minority, they never respect the rules or traditions of others though!
