I am sure that is true. But the problem the french and the brits have is, the Muslim communities are refusing to adhere to the courts in the respective countries. Therefore these Sharia "shadow courts" pop up. It doesn't matter to me that Saddam Hussein had a better version of a Muslim system (he clearly did), if I am living in Europe or the US. We have established courts here, and that is what should be used. Is there ANY OTHER group who has immigrated to various Christian countries that can't adhere to the court system? I can't think of one. Muslims need to accept the court system of whatever country they immigrate to, OR GO HOME. Assimilate or go back to Saudi Arabia. Like many americans I thought the french were exhibiting some underlying racism when I heard about the riots a few years ago. Now, I know what this is really about and I actually feel for the french. Sharia law in UK is 'unavoidable' Dr Rowan Williams Dr Williams says Muslims should have a choice in legal disputes Dr Williams interview The Archbishop of Canterbury says the adoption of certain aspects of Sharia law in the UK "seems unavoidable". Dr Rowan Williams told Radio 4's World at One that the UK has to "face up to the fact" that some of its citizens do not relate to the British legal system. Dr Williams argues that adopting parts of Islamic Sharia law would help maintain social cohesion. news.bbc.co.uk
