Muslims are not happy living in their homeland in the Mid-East But Their Migration Causes Unhappiness for Others: >Bardot fined for perceived anti-Muslim remarks Jun 3, 2008 France's 1960s screen icon Brigitte Bardot received a 15,000-euro (23,000 dollar) fine on Tuesday for alledged inciting hatred against Muslims. In December 2006, the film star-turned-animal rights activist wrote a letter to France's then interior minister, current President Nicolas Sarkozy, arguing that Muslims should stun animals before slaughtering them during the Aid al-Kabir holiday. She outraged anti-racist groups by saying: "I've had enough of being led by the nose by this whole population which is destroying us, (and) destroying our country by imposing their ways." Bardot, now 73 and suffering from arthritis, was absent from Tuesday's court hearing in Paris. She wrote to the court saying: "I'm sickened by how (these organisations) are harassing me." She added: "I will not shut up until stunning is carried out" on animals before their ritual slaughter. Bardot already has four convictions on similar charges. In 2004 she was fined 5,000 euros for inciting racial hatred in her book "Un Cri Dans le Silence" (A Cry in the Silence). France is home to Europe's largest Muslim community, estimated at five million people.

I don't think America has the stomach to take firm action like that. They lack the will - and have for a long time. The hippie generation and liberals are too "nuanced" to recognize evil or even call it that. That means they can't tell what kind of policy is necessary to defend the country. They're too PC, too multi-culturally sensitive anymore. The Koran even became suddenly popular after 9-11 in universities and in some high schools. That's America anymore, in my view.
