what it about?
This Woolwhich event has made me dig deeper into what Islam is about and why there is no peace in the middle east and basically it boils down to this.
There are TWO muslim ideologys.
This is why there will NEVER be world peace EVER

Personally, I'm sick of these people. Thirty years ago, I was only vaguely aware of muslims, and had no idea about islam. Muslims were obviously in The UK, but you hardly ever saw or met one.

I was perfectly aware of them as long as 45 years ago. My father hated them even then, and probably not without reason.
He had bought an off-licence shop in Bradford (where I was born and brought up) and tried his best to make a go of it. Not long afterwards, Pakistanis moved into the neighbourhood in droves and some of them opened a similar shop on the next corner. OK, that was their right, but my dad soon lost all his custom due to 'white flight'. OK, that wasn't really their fault either.
What really p****d my father off was that, whilst they were buying and setting up their shop they kept asking to use our telephone - we were the only people in our neighbourhood to have one - and my dad was happy to let them use it. What he didn't know, because they always spoke in Urdu, was they were using his telephone (free of charge) to make arrangements for setting up their shop in direct competition to his. My dad had no idea of their intentions and they never mentioned it to him of course.
He always thought of this as being underhand and never forgave them. His business failed and he had to sell up and move out at a great loss.
There are no white faces in that part of Bradford now.
Hearing your story, it's understandable that you and your father feel aggrieved.
