		<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;
So embedded is the evil of Islam in Muslims that I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see this young guy in the ranks of al-Qaeda in the next few years. Was it Zarqawi or Zawahiri who trained as a surgeon? One of them anyway.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
More slander and prejudice from another useful idiot.

Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was accused of beheading Nick Berg, but Berg was dead before he was beheaded. Al-Zarqawi has been reportedly killed four different times. 

For al-Zawahiri&#039;s links to Gladio-B, please check James Corbets interviews of Sibel Edmonds

		<description><![CDATA[It isn&#039;t clear whether he got in despite overcoming adversity or because of it. It would be equality of opportunity if a white middle class kid from Newcastle with the same grades had the same chance of getting in. That may be the case here but I doubt it. Nice story though.]]></description>

Here&#039;s another perspective on  the Muslim immigration problem.

Just about everyone in a Muslim country could claim to have a human rights case to stay in the west. It&#039;s utter madness.

Mind you, he only had to deal with beheadings, beatings and the threat of being hauled out of his bed and shot by religious nutters. 

Imagine if he had been born Maori in New Zealand, then he would have faced the insurmountable problem of having to deal with the supposed &quot;injustices&quot; of the past, not only that, he would have faced the crushing power of colonisation.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not really equal opportunity as there are very few scholarships in to Eton - more like winning the lotto - they receive applications from an enormous amount of less well off families and can cherry pick for image and promotional reasons. They&#039;re pretty much all scholarly overachievers with commitment.

There is an element of equal opportunity as having lots of dosh is no guarantee of getting in.  Daddy needs to be major royalty (or equivalent with influence) or little Johnny needs to be quite smart and one has the cash.  There are lots of pissed off public school kids who could not make in to Eton despite being well off.  This does mean that the average Etonian is pretty clever despite the various stereotypes. They also tend to be less insecure and less in to the historical British class system crap than upper class twits from the less successful public schools.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[thor42 and others, we must take each man or woman on their own merits. I would say these people have probably had their fill of extreme religion. Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a good example of someone who fled their native homeland because of extremism, and turned their back on it. 

Yes it is no guarantee the young lad wont be turned by extremism in the next 10 years while his still developing brain is open to ideologies of any kind. One can hope he makes good friends at Eton and (probably Oxford, or Cambridge) University, feels a connected and welcome part of the British community he is part of, and does not become disillusioned and embittered and vulnerable to exploitation. This is certainly a good start.]]></description>

&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Of course, but then money also helps buy a care more reliably than winning one as a prize for winning, say, the Coast to Coast (do they still give a car as a prize for that?), but the fact is that the opportunity is there with the requisite talent, desire and hard work.

Equality of opportunity does not mean that everybody gets to do or own whatever they want regardless of cost or effort.&#160; But if it does, then I want a Ferrari...

		<description><![CDATA[Oh - how sweet , how heart warming .....

It so reminds of many others from Africa and the middle east who have been educated and trained in England - only to return back home and terrorize and subjugate their peoples, and - of course - empty the national treasury.
Mugabe comes to mind. And then there are quite a few from saudi Arabia.
Such nice people.......
